< Genesis 22 >
1 Nangyari na pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito na sinubok ng Diyos si Abraham. Sinabi niya sa kanya, “Abraham!” Sumagot si Abraham, “Narito ako.”
And it came to pass after these things, that God, did prove Abraham, —and he said unto him, Abraham! And he said Behold me!
2 Pagkatapos sinabi ng Diyos, “Kunin mo ang iyong anak, ang kaisa-isa mong anak, na iyong minamahal, si Isaac, at pumunta ka sa lupain ng Moria. Ialay mo siya roon bilang handog na susunugin sa ibabaw ng isa sa mga bundok na ituturo ko sa iyo.”
And he said—Take, I pray thee, thy son, thine only one, whom thou lovest, even, Isaac, and get thee into the land of Moriah and cause him to ascend there as an ascending-sacrifice, on one of the mountains which I shall name unto thee.
3 Kaya maagang bumangon kinaumagahan si Abraham, inihanda ang kanyang asno, at isinama ang dalawa sa kanyang mga kabataang lalaki, kasama si Isaac na kanyang anak. Nagsibak siya ng kahoy para sa handog na susunugin, at naglakbay patungo sa lugar na sinabi ng Diyos sa kanya.
So Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took his two young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the pieces of wood for an ascending-sacrifice, and mounted and went his way unto the place which God had named to him.
4 Sa ikatlong araw, tumingala si Abraham at natanaw niya ang lugar sa kalayuan.
It was, on the third day, that Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
5 Sinabi ni Abraham sa kanyang mga kabataang lalaki, “Manatili kayo rito kasama ang asno, at pupunta ako roon kasama ang bata. Sasamba kami at muling babalik sa inyo.”
And Abraham said unto his young men—Tarry by yourselves here with the ass, but I and the young man must go yonder, —that we may bow ourselves down and return unto you.
6 Pagkatapos kinuha ni Abraham ang kahoy para sa handog na susunugin at ipinapasan ito kay Isaac na kanyang anak. Dinala niya sa kanyang kamay ang apoy at ang kutsilyo; at kapwa silang umalis na magkasama.
So Abraham took the pieces of wood for the ascending-sacrifice, and laid them on Isaac his son, and took in his own hand the fire and the knife, and they went on their way, both of them together.
7 Kinausap ni Isaac si Abraham na kaniyang ama at sinabing, “Aking ama,” at sumagot si Abraham, “Narito ako, aking anak.” Sinabi niya, “Narito, ang apoy at ang kahoy, ngunit nasaan ang tupa para sa handog na susunugin?”
Then said Isaac unto Abraham his father, then said he; My father! And he said, Behold me, my son, And he said, Behold the fire, and the pieces of wood, —but where is the lamb, for an ascending-sacrifice?
8 Sinabi ni Abraham, “Ang Diyos mismo ang magbibigay ng tupa para sa handog na susunugin, aking anak.” Kaya sila ay nagpatuloy nang magkasama.
And Abraham said, God, will provide for himself the lamb for an ascending-sacrifice, my son! So they went on their way, both of them, together.
9 Nang dumating sila sa lugar na sinabi ng Diyos sa kanya, gumawa si Abraham ng isang altar at inilatag niya ang kahoy dito. Pagkatapos tinalian ni Abraham si Isaac na kanyang anak, at inilagay niya ito sa altar, sa ibabaw ng kahoy.
Then came they into the place which God had named to him, and Abraham built there the altar, and laid in order the pieces of wood, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, above the pieces of wood.
10 Iniunat ni Abraham ang kanyang kamay na hawak ang kutsilyo para patayin ang kanyang anak.
And Abraham put forth his hand, and took the knife, —to slay his son.
11 Pero tinawag siya ng anghel ni Yahweh mula sa langit at sinabing, “Abraham, Abraham!” at sinabi niya, “Narito ako.”
Then called out unto him the messenger of Yahweh out of the heavens, and said. Abraham, Abraham! And he said Behold me!
12 Sinabi niya, “Huwag mong pagbuhatan ng kamay, ni gumawa ng anuman para saktan siya, sapagkat ngayon alam kong may takot ka sa Diyos, nakikita kong hindi mo ipinagkait ang iyong anak, ang iyong kaisa-isang anak na si Isaac sa akin.
Then he said, Do not put forth thy hand unto the young man, neither do to him—anything at all, —for, now, know I that one who reverest God, thou art, when thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only one, from me.
13 Tumingala si Abraham nang biglang, may isang tupa sa likuran niya ang sumabit ang sungay sa mga halaman. Pinuntahan at kinuha ni Abraham ang tupa at inalay ito bilang handog na susunugin sa Diyos sa halip na ang kanyang anak.
And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and lo! a ram, behind, caught in a thicket by his horns, and Abraham went, and took the ram, and caused him to ascend as an ascending-sacrifice instead of his son.
14 Kaya tinawag ni Abraham ang lugar na iyon na, “Si Yahweh ang magbibigay,” at tinatwag din hanggang sa araw na ito, “Sa bundok ni Yaweh, ito ay ibibigay.”
So Abraham called the name of that place Yahweh-yireh, —as to which it is still said to-day, In the mountain of Yahweh, will provision be made.
15 Tinawag ng anghel ni Yahweh si Abraham sa ikalawang pagkakataon mula sa langit
Then called out the messenger of Yahweh unto Abraham, —a second time out of the heavens;
16 at sinabing—ito ay isang kapahayagan mula kay Yahweh, “Nangangako ako sa aking sarili na dahil ginawa mo ang bagay na ito, at dahil hindi mo ipinagkait ang iyong anak, ang iyong kaisa-isang anak,
and said, By myself, have I sworn is the oracle of Yahweh, —Because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only one,
17 tiyak na pagpapalain kita at labis kong pararamihin ang iyong mga kaapu-apuhan gaya ng bituin sa kalangitan, at gaya ng buhangin sa dalampasigan; at aangkinin ng iyong mga kaapu-apuhan ang tarangkahan ng kanilang mga kaaway.
That I will, richly bless, thee, and, abundantly multiply, thy seed, as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is on the lip of the sea, —that thy seed may take possession of the gate of his foes:
18 Sa pamamagitan ng iyong anak, ang lahat ng mga bansa sa mundo ay pagpapalain, dahil sinunod mo ang aking tinig.
So shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves in thy seed, —Because thou didst hearken unto my voice.
19 Kaya bumalik si Abraham sa kanyang mga tauhan, at umalis sila at magkakasamang pumunta sa Beer-seba, at nanirahan siya sa Beer-seba.
So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they mounted, and went on their way together unto Beer-sheba, —and Abraham dwelt in Beer-sheba.
20 Nangyari na pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito, sinabihan si Abraham, “Nagkaroon din ng mga anak si Milca, sa iyong kapatid na si Nahor.
And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, —Behold! Milcah—she also, hath borne sons, to Nahor thy brother:
21 Sila ay sina Hus ang kanyang panganay, si Buz na kapatid niya, si Kemuel na ama ni Aram,
Uz his firstborn and Buz his brother, —and Kemuel, father of Aram—
22 Kesed, Hazo, Pildas, Jidlaf, at Bethuel.
and Chesed and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, —and Bethuel;
23 Si Bethuel ay naging ama ni Rebeca. May walong anak na isinilang si Milca kay Nahor, na kapatid ni Abraham.
And, Bethuel, hath begotten Rebekah, —These eight, hath Milcah borne to Nahor brother of Abraham.
24 Nagsilang din si Reumah ang pangalan ng isa pang asawa ni Nahor, sina Tebah, Gaham, Tahas at Maaca.
And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she also, hath borne Tebah and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maacah.
