Tijaabadii Ibraahim

22 Oo waxaa dhacay waxyaalahaas ka dib, in Ilaah tijaabiyey Ibraahim, oo uu ku yidhi, Ibraahimow. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waa i kan. Markaasuu ku yidhi, Hadda kaxee wiilkaaga keligiis ah, kan aad jeceshahay, oo ah Isxaaq, oo u kac dalka Moriyaah; oo halkaas isaga sida allabari la gubo ku dul bixi buuraha middood oo aan kuu sheegi doono. Oo aroortii horaa Ibraahim kacay, oo wuxuu kooraystay dameerkiisii, oo wuxuu kaxaystay laba ka mid ah dhallinyaradiisii, iyo wiilkiisii Isxaaq; qoryihiina allabariga la gubo wuu u jeexjeexay, wuuna kacay, oo wuxuu tegey meeshii Ilaah u sheegay. Maalintii saddexaad ayuu Ibraahim indhihiisa kor u taagay, markaasuu meeshii oo ka fog arkay. Ibraahimna wuxuu raggiisii dhallinyarada ahaa ku yidhi, Idinku halkan dameerka la jooga, aniga iyo wiilkuna halkoo baannu tegaynaa oo Ilaah ku soo caabudaynaa, dabadeedna waannu idinku soo noqonaynaa. Ibraahimna wuxuu qaaday qoryihii allabariga la gubo, oo wuxuu saaray wiilkiisii Isxaaq, isna wuxuu gacantiisa ku qaaday dabkii iyo mindidii; markaasay labadoodiiba israaceen. Isxaaqna waa la hadlay aabbihiis Ibraahim, oo yidhi, Aabbow. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waa i kan, wiilkaygiiyow. Markaasuu ku yidhi, Bal eeg, waa kuwan dabkii iyo qoryihii, laakiinse meeh wankii allabariga la gubo loo bixin lahaa? Ibraahimna wuxuu yidhi, Ilaah qudhiisaa keeni doona wankii allabariga la gubo loo bixin lahaa, wiilkaygiiyow; saas daraaddeed labadoodiiba way israaceen. Oo waxay yimaadeen meeshii Ilaah isaga u sheegay; Ibraahimna meeshaasuu ka dhisay meeshii allabariga, qoryihiina wuu hagaajiyey, markaasuu xidhay wiilkiisii Isxaaq, oo meeshii allabariga saaray qoryihii dushooda. 10 Ibraahimna gacantiisii buu fidiyey, oo mindidii buu u qaaday inuu wiilkiisii dilo. 11 Markaasay malaa'igtii Rabbigu samada uga yeedhay isaga, oo waxay ku tidhi, Ibraahimow, Ibraahimow. Kolkaasuu yidhi, Waa i kan. 12 Markaasay ku tidhi, Gacantaada ha saarin wiilka, waxbana ha ku samaynin: waayo, hadda waan garanayaa inaad Ilaah ka cabsatid, maxaa yeelay, igama aadan lexejeclaysan wiilkaaga, kaas oo ahaa wiilkaaga keligiis ah. 13 Markaasaa Ibraahim indhihiisii kor u taagay, oo wax fiiriyey, oo wuxuu dabadiisa ku arkay wan geesaha kayn kula jira. Markaasaa Ibraahim tegey oo wankii soo kaxeeyey, oo wuxuu u bixiyey allabari guban meeshii wiilkiisa. 14 Ibraahimna meeshaas wuxuu u bixiyey [a]Yehowah Yireh; xataa ilaa maanta waxaa la yidhaahdaa, Buurta Rabbiga ayaa lagu arki doonaa. 15 Kolkaasaa mar labaad malaa'igtii Rabbigu Ibraahim samada uga yeedhay, 16 oo waxay ku tidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Waxan aad samaysay aawadood, iyo wiilkaaga aadan iga lexejeclaysan, kaas oo ah wiilkaaga keligiis ah aawadiis ayaan nafsaddayda ku dhaartay 17 inaan barako ku barakayn doono, oo aan farcankaaga u tarmin doono sida xiddigaha cirka, iyo sida cammuudda taal badda xeebteeda; oo uu farcankaaguna hantiyi doono cadaawayaashiisa iriddooda; 18 oo ay quruumaha dunida oo dhammu ku barakoobi doonaan farcankaaga, maxaa yeelay, codkaygaad addeecday. 19 Haddaba Ibraahim wuxuu ku noqday raggiisii dhallinyarada ahaa, markaasay kaceen oo waxay wada tageen Bi'ir Shebac, Ibraahimna wuxuu iska degay Bi'ir Shebac.

Wiilashii Naaxoor

20 Oo waxaa dhacay waxyaalahaas dabadood, in Ibraahim loo sheegay, oo lagu yidhi, Bal eeg, Milkah carruur bay u dhashay walaalkaa Naaxoor. 21 Waxay yihiin Cuus oo ah curadkiisa, iyo Buus oo ah walaalkiis, iyo Qemuu'el oo ah Araam aabbihiis; 22 iyo Kesed, iyo Haso, iyo Fildash, iyo Yidlaf iyo Betuu'el. 23 Betuu'elna wuxuu dhalay Rebeqah. Siddeeddan bay Milkah u dhashay Naaxoor, oo ahaa Ibraahim walaalkiis. 24 Addoontiisii la odhan jiray Re'uumah waxay iyana u dhashay Tebah, iyo Gaham, iyo Tahash, iyo Macakah.

Abraham Tested

22 Some time later God tested(A) Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!”

“Here I am,”(B) he replied.

Then God said, “Take your son(C), your only son, whom you love—Isaac—and go to the region of Moriah.(D) Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering(E) on a mountain I will show you.(F)

Early the next morning(G) Abraham got up and loaded his donkey. He took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac. When he had cut enough wood for the burnt offering, he set out for the place God had told him about. On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance. He said to his servants, “Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you.(H)

Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac,(I) and he himself carried the fire and the knife.(J) As the two of them went on together, Isaac spoke up and said to his father Abraham, “Father?”

“Yes, my son?” Abraham replied.

“The fire and wood are here,” Isaac said, “but where is the lamb(K) for the burnt offering?”

Abraham answered, “God himself will provide(L) the lamb(M) for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two of them went on together.

When they reached the place God had told him about,(N) Abraham built an altar(O) there and arranged the wood(P) on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar,(Q) on top of the wood. 10 Then he reached out his hand and took the knife(R) to slay his son.(S) 11 But the angel of the Lord(T) called out to him from heaven,(U) “Abraham! Abraham!”(V)

“Here I am,”(W) he replied.

12 “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God,(X) because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.(Y)

13 Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram[a] caught by its horns.(Z) He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son.(AA) 14 So Abraham called(AB) that place The Lord(AC) Will Provide. And to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.(AD)

15 The angel of the Lord(AE) called to Abraham from heaven(AF) a second time 16 and said, “I swear by myself,(AG) declares the Lord, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son,(AH) 17 I will surely bless you(AI) and make your descendants(AJ) as numerous as the stars in the sky(AK) and as the sand on the seashore.(AL) Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies,(AM) 18 and through your offspring[b] all nations on earth will be blessed,[c](AN) because you have obeyed me.”(AO)

19 Then Abraham returned to his servants, and they set off together for Beersheba.(AP) And Abraham stayed in Beersheba.

Nahor’s Sons

20 Some time later Abraham was told, “Milkah is also a mother; she has borne sons to your brother Nahor:(AQ) 21 Uz(AR) the firstborn, Buz(AS) his brother, Kemuel (the father of Aram), 22 Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph and Bethuel.(AT) 23 Bethuel became the father of Rebekah.(AU) Milkah bore these eight sons to Abraham’s brother Nahor.(AV) 24 His concubine,(AW) whose name was Reumah, also had sons: Tebah, Gaham, Tahash and Maakah.

22 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.

And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.

Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.

And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.

And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.

And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?

And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.

And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.

10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.

11 And the angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.

12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.

13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.

14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen.

15 And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,

16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:

17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;

18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.

19 So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.

20 And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;

21 Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,

22 And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.

23 And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

24 And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.
