Genesis 22

¹Now it came about after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, 'Abraham!' And he said, 'Here I am.'

¹這些事以後，神要試驗亞伯拉罕，就呼叫他說：亞伯拉罕！他說：我在這裡。

²He said, 'Take now your son, your only son, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you.'

²神說：你帶著你的兒子，就是你獨生的兒子，你所愛的以撒，往摩利亞地去，在我所要指示你的山上，把他獻為燔祭。

³So 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 wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.

³亞伯拉罕清早起來，備上驢，帶著兩個僕人和他兒子以撒，也劈好了燔祭的柴，就起身往神所指示他的地方去了。

⁴On the third day Abraham raised his eyes and saw the place from a distance.

⁴到了第三日，亞伯拉罕舉目遠遠的看見那地方。

⁵Abraham said to his young men, 'Stay here with the donkey, and I and the lad will go over there; and we will worship and return to you.'

⁵亞伯拉罕對他的僕人說：你們和驢在此等候，我與童子往那裡去拜一拜，就回到你們這裡來。

⁶Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So the two of them walked on together.

⁶亞伯拉罕把燔祭的柴放在他兒子以撒身上，自己手裡拿著火與刀；於是二人同行。

⁷Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, 'My father!' And he said, 'Here I am, my son.' And he said, 'Behold, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?'

⁷以撒對他父親亞伯拉罕說：父親哪！亞伯拉罕說：我兒，我在這裡。以撒說：請看，火與柴都有了，但燔祭的羊羔在那裡呢？

⁸Abraham said, 'God will provide for Himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.' So the two of them walked on together.

⁸亞伯拉罕說：我兒，神必自己預備作燔祭的羊羔。於是二人同行。

⁹Then they came to the place of which God had told him; and Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood, and bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood.

⁹他們到了神所指示的地方，亞伯拉罕在那裡築壇，把柴擺好，捆綁他的兒子以撒，放在壇的柴上。

¹⁰Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.

¹⁰亞伯拉罕就伸手拿刀，要殺他的兒子。

¹¹But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven and said, 'Abraham, Abraham!' And he said, 'Here I am.'

¹¹耶和華的使者從天上呼叫他說：亞伯拉罕！亞伯拉罕！他說：我在這裡。

¹²He said, 'Do not stretch out your hand against the lad, and do nothing to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me.'

¹²天使說：你不可在這童子身上下手。一點不可害他！現在我知道你是敬畏神的了；因為你沒有將你的兒子，就是你獨生的兒子，留下不給我。

¹³Then Abraham raised his eyes and looked, and behold, behind [him] a ram caught in the thicket by his horns; and Abraham went and took the ram and offered him up for a burnt offering in the place of his son.

¹³亞伯拉罕舉目觀看，不料，有一隻公羊，兩角扣在稠密的小樹中，亞伯拉罕就取了那隻公羊來，獻為燔祭，代替他的兒子。

¹⁴Abraham called the name of that place The LORD Will Provide, as it is said to this day, 'In the mount of the LORD it will be provided.'

¹⁴亞伯拉罕給那地方起名叫耶和華以勒(意思就是耶和華必預備的意思)，直到今日人還說：在耶和華的山上必有預備。

¹⁵Then the angel of the LORD called to Abraham a second time from heaven,

¹⁵耶和華的使者第二次從天上呼叫亞伯拉罕說：

¹⁶and said, 'By Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, because you have done this thing and have not withheld your son, your only son,

¹⁶耶和華說：你既行了這事，不留下你的兒子，就是你獨生的兒子，我便指著自己起誓說：

¹⁷indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your seed shall possess the gate of their enemies.

¹⁷論福，我必賜大福給你；論子孫，我必叫你的子孫多起來，如同天上的星，海邊的沙。你子孫必得著仇敵的城門，

¹⁸'In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.'

¹⁸並且地上萬國都必因你的後裔得福，因為你聽從了我的話。

¹⁹So Abraham returned to his young men, and they arose and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham lived at Beersheba.

¹⁹於是亞伯拉罕回到他僕人那裡，他們一同起身往別是巴去，亞伯拉罕就住在別是巴。

²⁰Now it came about after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, 'Behold, Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

²⁰這事以後，有人告訴亞伯拉罕說：密迦給你兄弟拿鶴生了幾個兒子，

²¹Uz his firstborn and Buz his brother and Kemuel the father of Aram

²¹長子是烏斯，他的兄弟是布斯和亞蘭的父親基母利，

²²and Chesed and Hazo and Pildash and Jidlaph and Bethuel.'

²²並基薛、哈瑣、必達、益拉、彼土利（彼土利生利百加）。

²³Bethuel became the father of Rebekah; these eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

²³這八個人都是密迦給亞伯拉罕的兄弟拿鶴生的。

²⁴His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah and Gaham and Tahash and Maacah.

²⁴拿鶴的妾名叫流瑪，生了提八、迦含、他轄，和瑪迦。
