¹وحدث بعد هذه الامور ان الله امتحن ابراهيم. فقال له يا ابراهيم. فقال هانذا.

¹And it came to pass after these things, that God did prove Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham. And he said, Here am I.

²فقال خذ ابنك وحيدك الذي تحبه اسحق واذهب الى ارض المريّا واصعده هناك محرقة على احد الجبال الذي اقول لك.

²And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son, whom thou lovest, even Isaac, 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.

³فبكّر ابراهيم صباحا وشدّ على حماره واخذ اثنين من غلمانه معه واسحق ابنه وشقّق حطبا لمحرقة وقام وذهب الى الموضع الذي قال له الله.

³And Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son. And he clave the wood for the burnt-offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.

⁴وفي اليوم الثالث رفع ابراهيم عينيه وابصر الموضع من بعيد.

⁴On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.

⁵فقال ابراهيم لغلاميه اجلسا انتما ههنا مع الحمار. واما انا والغلام فنذهب الى هناك ونسجد ثم نرجع اليكما.

⁵And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass, and I and the lad will go yonder; and we will worship, and come again to you.

⁶فاخذ ابراهيم حطب المحرقة ووضعه على اسحق ابنه واخذ بيده النار والسكين. فذهبا كلاهما معا.

⁶And Abraham took the wood of the burnt-offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son. And he took in his hand the fire and the knife. And they went both of them together.

⁷وكلم اسحق ابراهيم اباه وقال يا ابي. فقال هانذا يا ابني. فقال هوذا النار والحطب ولكن اين الخروف للمحرقة.

⁷And 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?

⁸فقال ابراهيم الله يرى له الخروف للمحرقة يا ابني. فذهبا كلاهما معا

⁸And Abraham said, God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt-offering, my son. So they went both of them together.

⁹فلما أتيا الى الموضع الذي قال له الله بنى هناك ابراهيم المذبح ورتب الحطب وربط اسحق ابنه ووضعه على المذبح فوق الحطب.

⁹And they came to the place which God had told him of. And Abraham built the altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.

¹⁰ثم مدّ ابراهيم يده واخذ السكين ليذبح ابنه.

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

¹¹فناداه ملاك الرب من السماء وقال ابراهيم ابراهيم. فقال هانذا.

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

¹²فقال لا تمد يدك الى الغلام ولا تفعل به شيئا. لاني الآن علمت انك خائف الله فلم تمسك ابنك وحيدك عني.

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

¹³فرفع ابراهيم عينيه ونظر واذا كبش وراءه ممسكا في الغابة بقرنيه. فذهب ابراهيم واخذ الكبش واصعده محرقة عوضا عن ابنه.

¹³And Abraham lifted up 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 stead of his son.

¹⁴فدعا ابراهيم اسم ذلك الموضع يهوه يرأه. حتى انه يقال اليوم في جبل الرب يرى

¹⁴And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh. As it is said to this day, In the mount of Jehovah it shall be provided.

¹⁵ونادى ملاك الرب ابراهيم ثانية من السماء

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

¹⁶وقال بذاتي اقسمت يقول الرب. اني من اجل انك فعلت هذا الامر ولم تمسك ابنك وحيدك

¹⁶and said, By myself have I sworn, saith Jehovah, because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son,

¹⁷اباركك مباركة واكثر نسلك تكثيرا كنجوم السماء وكالرمل الذي على شاطئ البحر. ويرث نسلك باب اعدائه.

¹⁷that in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is upon the seashore. And thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies.

¹⁸ويتبارك في نسلك جميع امم الارض. من اجل انك سمعت لقولي.

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

¹⁹ثم رجع ابراهيم الى غلاميه. فقاموا وذهبوا معا الى بئر سبع. وسكن ابراهيم في بئر سبع

¹⁹So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba. And Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.

²⁰وحدث بعد هذه الامور ان ابراهيم أخبر وقيل له هوذا ملكة قد ولدت ايضا بنين لناحور اخيك.

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

²¹عوصا بكره وبوزا اخاه وقموئيل ابا ارام

²¹Uz his first-born, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram.

²²وكاسد وحزوا وفلداش ويدلاف وبتوئيل.

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

²³وولد بتوئيل رفقة. هؤلاء الثمانية ولدتهم ملكة لناحور اخي ابراهيم.

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

²⁴واما سرّيته واسمها رؤومة فولدت هي ايضا طابح وجاحم وتاحش ومعكة

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