Genesisi 22
1 Shure kwaizvozvo, Mwari akaedza Abhurahama. Akati kwaari, “Abhurahama!” Iye akati, “Ndiri pano hangu.”
It came about after these things that God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!” Abraham said, “Here I am.”
2 Ipapo Mwari akati, “Tora mwanakomana wako, mwanakomana wako mumwe oga, Isaka, iye waunoda, uende kunyika yeMoria. Umubayire ikoko sechipiriso chinopiswa pane rimwe gomo randichakuudza.”
Then God said, “Take your son, your only son, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains there, which I will tell you about.”
3 Mangwanani akatevera, Abhurahama akamuka akasunga mbongoro yake. Akatora varanda vake vaviri nomwanakomana wake Isaka. Akati atema huni dzechipiriso chinopiswa dzakakwana, akasimuka akaenda kunzvimbo yaakanga audzwa nezvayo naMwari.
So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, along with Isaac his son. He cut the wood for the burnt offering, then set out on his journey to the place that God had told him about.
4 Pazuva rechitatu, Abhurahama akasimudza meso ake akaona nzvimbo yacho ichiri kure.
On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place afar off.
5 Akati kuvaranda vake, “Sarai henyu pano nembongoro iyi, ini nomukomana timboyambukira uko. Tichandonamata tigodzoka hedu kwamuri.”
Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey, and I and the lad will go over there. We will worship and come again to you.”
6 Abhurahama akatora huni dzechipiriso chinopiswa akadziisa pana Isaka mwanakomana wake, uye iye pachake akatakura moto nebanga. Pavakanga vachifamba pamwe chete vari vaviri,
Then Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and put it on Isaac his son. He took in his own hand the fire and the knife; and they went both of them together.
7 Isaka akataura nababa vake Abhurahama akati, “Baba!” Abhurahama akati, “Chiiko mwanangu?” Isaka akati, “Moto nehuni zviri pano, asi gwayana rechipiriso chinopiswa riripiko?”
Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, “My father,” and he said, “Here I am, my son.” He said, “See, here is the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
8 Abhurahama akapindura akati, “Mwari pachake ndiye achapa gwayana rechipiriso chinopiswa, mwanakomana wangu.”
Abraham said, “God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” So they went on, both of them together.
9 Vakati vasvika panzvimbo yaakanga ataurirwa nezvayo naMwari, Abhurahama akavaka aritari ipapo uye akaisa huni pamusoro payo. Akasunga mwanakomana wake Isaka akamuradzika paaritari, pamusoro pehuni.
When they came to the place that God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and laid the wood on it. Then he bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood.
10 Ipapo akatambanudza ruoko rwake akatora banga kuti auraye mwanakomana wake.
Abraham reached out with his hand and took up the knife to kill his son.
11 Asi mutumwa waJehovha akadanidzira kwaari kubva kudenga akati, “Abhurahama! Abhurahama!” Iye akapindura akati, “Ndiri pano hangu.”
Then the angel of Yahweh called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” and he said, “Here I am.”
12 Akati, “Usaisa ruoko rwako pamukomana. Usamboita chimwe chinhu kwaari. Zvino ndava kuziva kuti unotya Mwari, nokuti hauna kundinyima mwanakomana wako, mwanakomana wako mumwe woga.”
He said, “Do not lay your hand upon the lad, nor do anything to harm him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing that you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.”
13 Abhurahama akasimudza meso ake uye ipapo padenhere akaona gondobwe rakabatwa nenyanga dzaro. Akaendapo akatora gondobwe akaribayira sechipiriso chinopiswa.
Abraham looked up and behold, behind him was a ram caught in the bushes by his horns. Abraham went and took the ram and offered him up as a burnt offering instead of his son.
14 Saka Abhurahama akatumidza nzvimbo iyo kuti, “Jehovha Achapa.” Uye nanhasi zvinonzi, “Pagomo raJehovha ndipo pazvichapiwa.”
So Abraham called that place, “Yahweh will provide,” and it is said to this day, “On the mountain of Yahweh it will be provided.”
15 Mutumwa waJehovha akadana kuna Abhurahama kubva kudenga kechipiri
The angel of Yahweh called to Abraham a second time from heaven
16 akati, “Ndinopika neni pachangu, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, kuti nokuda kwokuti waita izvi uye kuti hauna kundinyima mwanakomana wako, mwanakomana wako mumwe oga,
and said—this is Yahweh's declaration—by myself I have sworn that because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son,
17 zvirokwazvo ndichakuropafadza uye ndichaita kuti zvizvarwa zvako zviwande senyeredzi dzokudenga uye sejecha riri pamahombekombe egungwa. Zvizvarwa zvako zvichatora maguta avavengi vavo,
I will surely bless you and I will greatly multiply your descendants as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is upon the seashore; and your descendants will possess the gate of their enemies.
18 uye kubudikidza navana vako ndudzi dzose dzapanyika dzicharopafadzwa, nokuti wakanditeerera.”
Through your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice.”
19 Ipapo Abhurahama akadzokera kuvaranda vake, vakasimuka vose pamwe chete vakaenda kuBheerishebha.
So Abraham returned to his young men, and they departed and went together to Beersheba, and he lived at Beersheba.
20 Shure kwaizvozvo, Abhurahama akaudzwa kuti, “Mirika ava maiwo; akaberekera mununʼuna wako Nahori vanakomana vanoti:
It came about after these things that Abraham was told, “Milkah has borne children, as well, to your brother Nahor.”
21 Uzi dangwe, Bhuzi mununʼuna wake, Kemueri (baba vaAramu),
They were Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 Kesedhi, Hazo, Piridhashi, Jidhirafi naBhetueri.”
Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
23 Bhetueri akabereka Rabheka. Mirika akaberekera Nahori mununʼuna waAbhurahama vanakomana vasere ava.
Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These were the eight children that Milkah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
24 Murongo wake ainzi Reuma, naiyewo akava navanakomana vaiti: Tebha, Gahamu, Tahashi naMaaka.
His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
