< Genesis 22 >
1 Nígbà tí ó ṣe, Ọlọ́run dán Abrahamu wò, ó pè é, ó sì wí pé, “Abrahamu.” Abrahamu sì dáhùn pé, “Èmi nìyí.”
Sometime later God tested Abraham. He called out to him, “Abraham!” “I'm here,” Abraham replied.
2 Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Mú ọmọ rẹ, àní Isaaki ọmọ rẹ kan ṣoṣo nì, tí ìwọ fẹ́ràn, lọ sí ilẹ̀ Moria, kí o sì fi rú ẹbọ sísun níbẹ̀ lórí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn òkè tí èmi yóò sọ fún ọ.”
God told him, “Go with your son, the one you love, your only son, to the land of Moriah and sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains that I'll show you.”
3 Abrahamu sì dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, ó sì di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀ ní gàárì, ó sì mú méjì nínú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ àti Isaaki ọmọ rẹ̀, ó sì ṣẹ́ igi fún ẹbọ sísun, ó sì gbéra lọ sí ibi tí Ọlọ́run ti sọ fún un.
Abraham got up early in the morning and saddled up his donkey. He took two servants and Isaac with him and went to cut firewood for the burnt offering. Then he left with them to go to the place God had told him about.
4 Nígbà tí ó di ọjọ́ kẹta, Abrahamu gbé ojú sókè, ó sì rí ibi tí ó ń lọ ní òkèrè,
After traveling for three days Abraham could see the place in the distance.
5 Abrahamu sì wí fún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ̀yin, ẹ dúró níhìn-ín pẹ̀lú kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, èmi àti ọmọ yìí yóò lọ sí ohunkóhun láti sin Ọlọ́run, a ó sì tún padà wá bá a yín.”
He told his servants, “Wait here with the donkey while I go with the boy and worship God. Then we'll return.”
6 Abrahamu sì gbé igi ẹbọ sísun náà ru Isaaki, òun fúnra rẹ̀ sì mú iná àti ọ̀bẹ. Bí àwọn méjèèjì ti ń lọ,
Abraham had Isaac carry the wood for the burnt offering, while he carried the fire and the knife, and they walked up together.
7 Isaaki sì sọ fún Abrahamu baba rẹ̀ wí pé, “Baba mi.” Abrahamu sì dalóhùn pé, “Èmi nìyí ọmọ mi.” Isaaki sì tún wí pé, “Wò ó iná àti igi nìyí, ṣùgbọ́n níbo ni ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn fún ẹbọ sísun náà wà?”
Isaac said to Abraham, “Father?” “Yes, my son?” Abraham replied. “Well, we have the fire and the wood, but where's the lamb for the burnt offering?” Isaac asked.
8 Abrahamu sì dáhùn pé, “Ọmọ mi, Ọlọ́run fúnra rẹ̀ ni yóò pèsè ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn fún ẹbọ sísun náà.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn méjèèjì jùmọ̀ ń lọ.
“God will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son,” Abraham replied, and they went on walking up together.
9 Nígbà tí wọn sì dé ibi tí Ọlọ́run sọ fún Abrahamu, ó mọ pẹpẹ kan, ó sì to igi lé e lórí, ó sì di Isaaki ọmọ rẹ̀, ó sì da dùbúlẹ̀ lórí pẹpẹ náà.
When they arrived at the place where God had told him to go, Abraham built an altar and placed the wood on it. Then he bound his son Isaac and placed him on the altar on top of the wood.
10 Abrahamu sì nawọ́ mú ọ̀bẹ, láti dúńbú ọmọ rẹ̀.
Abraham picked up the knife, ready to slaughter his son.
11 Ṣùgbọ́n angẹli Olúwa ké sí i láti ọ̀run wá wí pé “Abrahamu! Abrahamu!” Abrahamu sì dáhùn pé, “Èmi nìyí.”
But the angel of the Lord shouted to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!” “Yes, I'm here,” he replied.
12 Angẹli Olúwa sì wí pé, “Má ṣe fọwọ́ kan ọmọ náà, ìwọ kò sì gbọdọ̀ ṣe é ni ohun kan. Nísinsin yìí ni mo mọ̀ pé o bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run, nítorí pé ìwọ kò fi ọmọ rẹ, àní, ọmọ rẹ kan ṣoṣo dù mí.”
The angel said, “Don't touch the boy! Don't do anything to him, because now I know that you truly do what God tells you. You didn't refuse to give me your son, your only son.”
13 Abrahamu sì gbójú sókè, ó sì rí àgbò kan tí ó fi ìwo há pàǹtírí, ó sì lọ mú un, ó sì fi rú ẹbọ sísun dípò ọmọ rẹ̀.
Abraham looked up and saw a ram caught by its horns in some bushes. He brought the ram over and sacrificed it as a burnt offering in place of his son.
14 Abrahamu sì pe orúkọ ibẹ̀ ni, Jehofah Jire. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a sì ń wí títí di òní olónìí pé, “Ní orí òkè Olúwa, ni a ó ti pèsè.”
Abraham called the place “The Lord will Provide.” That's still a saying people use today: “the Lord will provide on his mountain.”
15 Angẹli Olúwa sì tún pe Abrahamu láti ọ̀run wá lẹ́ẹ̀kejì.
The angel of the Lord shouted again to Abraham from heaven,
16 Ó sì wí pé, Olúwa wí pé, “Mo fi ara mi búra, níwọ̀n bí ìwọ ti ṣe èyí, tí ìwọ kò fi ọmọ rẹ, àní, ọmọ rẹ kan ṣoṣo dù mí,
“I swear by myself, says the Lord, that because you have done this and didn't refuse to give me your son, your only son,
17 nítòótọ́, ní bíbùkún èmi ó bùkún fún ọ, àti ní bíbísí èmi ó sì mú ọ bí sí i bí i ìràwọ̀ ojú ọ̀run àti bí iyanrìn etí Òkun. Irú-ọmọ rẹ yóò sì gba ẹnu ibodè àwọn ọ̀tá wọn,
you can be sure that I will bless you and give you many descendants. They will be as numerous as the stars of heaven and the sand of the seashore, and they will conquer their enemies.
18 àti nípasẹ̀ irú-ọmọ rẹ ni a ó ti bùkún fún gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ayé nítorí tí ìwọ gbọ́rọ̀ sí mi lẹ́nu.”
All the nations of the earth will be blessed by your descendants because you did what I told you.”
19 Nígbà náà ni Abrahamu padà tọ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ lọ. Gbogbo wọn sì padà lọ sí Beerṣeba. Abrahamu sì jókòó ní Beerṣeba.
Then Abraham returned to his servants, and they went back together to Beersheba where Abraham was living.
20 Lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni a wí fún Abrahamu pé, “Milka aya Nahori bí àwọn ọmọkùnrin fún un.
Sometime later, Abraham was told, “Milcah has had sons for your brother Nahor.”
21 Usi àkọ́bí rẹ̀, Busi arákùnrin rẹ̀, Kemueli (baba Aramu).
Uz was the firstborn, then his brother Buz, Kemuel (who became the ancestor of Arameans),
22 Kesedi, Haso, Pildasi, Jidlafi, àti Betueli.”
Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
23 Betueli sì ni baba Rebeka. Milka sì bí àwọn ọmọ mẹ́jọ wọ̀nyí fún Nahori arákùnrin Abrahamu.
(Bethuel was Rebekah's father.) Milcah had these eight sons for Abraham's brother Nahor.
24 Àlè rẹ̀ tí ń jẹ́ Reuma náà bí àwọn ọmọkùnrin wọ̀nyí fun un: Teba, Gahamu, Tahasi àti Maaka.
In addition, Reumah his concubine had Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
