Genesis 22
New King James Version
Abraham’s Faith Confirmed(A)
22 Now it came to pass after these things that (B)God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!”
And he said, “Here I am.”
2 Then He said, “Take now your son, (C)your only son Isaac, whom you (D)love, and go (E)to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a (F)burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.”
3 So Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he split the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him. 4 Then on the third day Abraham lifted his eyes and saw the place afar off. 5 And Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey; the [a]lad and I will go yonder and worship, and we will (G)come back to you.”
6 So Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and (H)laid it on Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife, and the two of them went together. 7 But Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, “My father!”
And he said, “Here I am, my son.”
Then he said, “Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the [b]lamb for a burnt offering?”
8 And Abraham said, “My son, God will provide for Himself the (I)lamb for a (J)burnt offering.” So the two of them went together.
9 Then they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son and (K)laid him on the altar, upon the wood. 10 And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.
11 But the (L)Angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!”
So he said, “Here I am.”
12 And He said, (M)“Do not lay your hand on the lad, or do anything to him; for (N)now I know that you fear God, since you have not (O)withheld your son, your only son, from Me.”
13 Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 And Abraham called the name of the place, [c]The-Lord-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”
15 Then the Angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time out of heaven, 16 and said: (P)“By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son— 17 blessing I will (Q)bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants (R)as the stars of the heaven (S)and as the sand which is on the seashore; and (T)your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. 18 (U)In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, (V)because you have obeyed My voice.” 19 So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose and went together to (W)Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.
The Family of Nahor
20 Now it came to pass after these things that it was told Abraham, saying, “Indeed (X)Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor: 21 (Y)Huz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father (Z)of Aram, 22 Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.” 23 And (AA)Bethuel begot [d]Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham’s brother. 24 His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Thahash, and Maachah.

Sinubok ng Diyos si Abraham
22 Pagkalipas(A) ng ilang panahon, sinubok ng Diyos si Abraham. Tinawag siya ng Diyos, “Abraham!” “Narito po ako,” tugon naman niya.
2 Sinabi(B) sa kanya, “Isama mo ang kaisa-isa at pinakamamahal mong anak na si Isaac, at magpunta kayo sa lupain ng Moria. Umakyat kayo sa bundok na ituturo ko sa iyo, at ihandog mo siya sa akin.”
3 Kinabukasan, maagang bumangon si Abraham at nagsibak ng kahoy na gagamiting panggatong sa handog na susunugin. Inihanda niya ang asno, at umalis kasama si Isaac at ang dalawang aliping lalaki papunta sa lugar na sinabi ng Diyos sa kanya. 4 Nang ikatlong araw ng paglalakbay, natanaw na nila ang dakong kanilang pupuntahan. 5 Kaya't sinabi ni Abraham sa kanyang mga alipin, “Bantayan ninyo rito ang asno at kami na lamang ng bata ang aakyat sa bundok. Sasamba kami sa dako roon, at babalikan namin kayo.”
6 Ipinapasan ni Abraham kay Isaac ang kahoy na panggatong. Dala naman niya ang apoy at patalim, at magkasama silang lumakad. 7 Tinawag ni Isaac ang pansin ng ama, “Ama!”
“Ano iyon, anak?” tugon ni Abraham.
“Mayroon na tayong apoy at panggatong, ngunit nasaan ang tupang ihahandog?” tanong ni Isaac.
8 Sumagot si Abraham, “Anak, ang Diyos ang magbibigay niyon.” Kaya't nagpatuloy sila sa paglakad.
9 Pagsapit(C) nila sa lugar na itinuro ng Diyos, gumawa ng altar si Abraham. Inayos niya sa ibabaw nito ang panggatong at inihiga si Isaac matapos gapusin. 10 Nang sasaksakin na niya ang bata, 11 tinawag siya ng anghel ni Yahweh at mula sa langit ay sinabi, “Abraham, Abraham!”
“Narito po ako,” sagot ni Abraham.
12 Sinabi ng anghel, “Huwag mong patayin ang bata. Huwag mo siyang saktan! Natitiyak ko ngayong handa kang sumunod sa Diyos, sapagkat hindi mo ipinagkait sa kanya ang kaisa-isa mong anak.”
13 Paglingon niya'y may nakita siyang isang lalaking tupa na ang mga sungay ay napasabit sa mga sanga ng kahoy. Ito ang kinuha ni Abraham at inihandog sa halip na ang kanyang anak. 14 Kaya't ang lugar na iyon ay tinawag ni Abraham na, “Si Yahweh ang Nagkakaloob.” At magpahanggang ngayon, sinasabi ng mga tao, “Sa bundok ni Yahweh ay may nakalaan.”
15 Mula sa langit, nagsalitang muli kay Abraham ang anghel ni Yahweh, 16 “Ako'y(D) nangangako sa pamamagitan ng aking pangalan—Yahweh. Sapagkat hindi mo ipinagkait sa akin ang kaisa-isa mong anak, 17 pagpapalain(E) kita. Ang lahi mo'y magiging sindami ng bituin sa langit at ng buhangin sa dagat. Sasakupin nila ang mga lunsod ng kanilang mga kaaway. 18 Sa pamamagitan(F) ng iyong lahi, pagpapalain ang lahat ng bansa sa daigdig sapagkat sinunod mo ang aking utos.” 19 Binalikan ni Abraham ang kanyang mga alipin, at sama-sama silang umuwi sa Beer-seba.
Ang mga Angkan ni Nahor
20 Hindi nagtagal, nabalitaan ni Abraham na si Milca, ang asawa ng kanyang kapatid na si Nahor, ay nagkaroon din ng mga anak na lalaki. 21 Ang panganay ay si Hus, sumunod si Buz at pagkatapos ay si Kemuel na ama ni Aram. 22 Ang iba pang naging anak ni Nahor kay Milca, ayon sa pagkakasunud-sunod ay sina Kesed, Hazo, Pildas, Jidlaf at Bethuel. 23 Si Bethuel ang ama ni Rebeca. Ito ang walong anak ni Nahor kay Milca. 24 Kay Reuma na asawang-lingkod ni Nahor, naging anak naman niya sina Tebah, Gaham, Tahas at Maaca.

Abraham offrar Isak
22 En tid därefter satte Gud Abraham på prov. Han sade till honom: "Abraham!" Han svarade: "Ja, här är jag." 2 Då sade han: "Tag din son Isak, din ende son, som du älskar, och gå till Moria land och offra honom där som bränn-offer på ett berg som jag skall visa dig."
3 Tidigt nästa morgon sadlade Abraham sin åsna och tog med sig två av sina tjänare och sin son Isak. Sedan han huggit ved till brännoffer, gav han sig i väg mot den plats som Gud hade sagt åt honom att gå till. 4 När Abraham på tredje dagen lyfte blicken fick han se platsen på avstånd. 5 Han sade då till sina tjänare: "Stanna här med åsnan. Jag och pojken går dit bort för att tillbe, och sedan kommer vi tillbaka till er." 6 Abraham tog veden till brännoffret och lade den på sin son Isak, men själv tog han elden och kniven, och de gick båda tillsammans. 7 Isak sade till sin far Abraham: "Far!" Han svarade: "Ja, min son?" Han sade: "Vi har eld och ved, men var är lammet till brännoffret?" 8 Abraham svarade: "Gud kommer att utse åt sig lammet till brännoffret, min son." Så fortsatte de sin vandring tillsammans.
9 När de kommit fram till den plats som Gud hade sagt till Abraham, byggde han ett altare där och gjorde i ordning veden. Sedan band han sin son Isak och lade honom på altaret ovanpå veden. 10 Och Abraham räckte ut handen och tog kniven för att slakta sin son. 11 Då ropade Herrens ängel till honom från himlen: "Abraham! Abraham!" Han svarade: "Här är jag." 12 Då sade han: "Lyft inte din hand mot pojken och gör honom ingenting. Nu vet jag att du fruktar Gud, då du inte ens har undanhållit mig din ende son." 13 Abraham såg sig omkring och fick då bakom sig syn på en bagge som hade fastnat med hornen i ett snår. Abraham gick dit och tog baggen och offrade den till brännoffer i stället för sin son. 14 Och Abraham kallade platsen Herren förser. I dag säger man: Berget där Herren förser.
15 Herrens ängel ropade ännu en gång till Abraham från himlen: 16 "Jag svär vid mig själv, säger Herren: Eftersom du har gjort detta och inte undanhållit mig din ende son, 17 skall jag rikligen välsigna dig och göra dina efterkommande talrika som stjärnorna på himlen och som sanden på havets strand, och din avkomma skall inta sina fienders portar. 18 I din avkomma skall alla jordens folk bli välsignade, därför att du lyssnade till min röst."
19 Sedan vände Abraham tillbaka till sina tjänare, och de bröt upp och gick tillsammans till Beer-Sheba. Och Abraham bodde i Beer-Sheba.
Nahors släkttavla
20 Sedan berättade man för Abraham och sade: Också Milka har fött barn åt din bror Nahor: 21 Us, hans förstfödde, och Bus, dennes bror, och Kemuel, Arams far, 22 samt Kesed, Haso, Pildas, Jidlaf och Betuel. 23 Betuel blev far till Rebecka. Dessa åtta födde Milka åt Abrahams bror Nahor. 24 Hans bihustru, som hette Reuma, födde Teba, Gaham, Tahash och Maaka.
