Genesis 22

1 Some time later God tested Abraham and said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he answered.

1 这些事以后， 神要试验亚伯拉罕，就呼叫他说：「亚伯拉罕！」他说：「我在这里。」

2 “Take your son,” God said, “your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will show you.”

2 神说：「你带着你的儿子，就是你独生的儿子，你所爱的以撒，往摩利亚地去，在我所要指示你的山上，把他献为燔祭。」

3 So Abraham got up early the next morning, saddled his donkey, and took along two of his servants and his son Isaac. He split the wood for a burnt offering and set out for the place God had designated.

3 亚伯拉罕清早起来，备上驴，带着两个仆人和他儿子以撒，也劈好了燔祭的柴，就起身往 神所指示他的地方去了。

4 On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance.

4 到了第三日，亚伯拉罕举目远远地看见那地方。

5 “Stay here with the donkey,” Abraham told his servants. “The boy and I will go over there to worship, and then we will return to you.”

5 亚伯拉罕对他的仆人说：「你们和驴在此等候，我与童子往那里去拜一拜，就回到你们这里来。」

6 Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac. He himself carried the fire and the sacrificial knife, and the two of them walked on together.

6 亚伯拉罕把燔祭的柴放在他儿子以撒身上，自己手里拿着火与刀；于是二人同行。

7 Then Isaac said to his father Abraham, “My father!” “Here I am, my son,” he replied. “The fire and the wood are here,” said Isaac, “but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”

7 以撒对他父亲亚伯拉罕说：「父亲哪！」亚伯拉罕说：「我儿，我在这里。」以撒说：「请看，火与柴都有了，但燔祭的羊羔在哪里呢？」

8 Abraham answered, “God Himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two walked on together.

8 亚伯拉罕说：「我儿， 神必自己预备作燔祭的羊羔。」于是二人同行。

9 When they arrived at the place God had designated, Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood. He bound his son Isaac and placed him on the altar, atop the wood.

9 他们到了 神所指示的地方，亚伯拉罕在那里筑坛，把柴摆好，捆绑他的儿子以撒，放在坛的柴上。

10 Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son.

10 亚伯拉罕就伸手拿刀，要杀他的儿子。

11 Just then the angel of the LORD called out to him from heaven, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied.

11 耶和华的使者从天上呼叫他说：「亚伯拉罕！亚伯拉罕！」他说：「我在这里。」

12 “Do not lay a hand on the boy or do anything to him,” said the angel, “for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your only son from me.”

12 天使说：「你不可在这童子身上下手。一点不可害他！现在我知道你是敬畏 神的了；因为你没有将你的儿子，就是你独生的儿子，留下不给我。」

13 Then Abraham looked up and saw behind him a ram in a thicket, caught by its horns. So he went and took the ram and offered it as a burnt offering in place of his son.

13 亚伯拉罕举目观看，不料，有一只公羊，两角扣在稠密的小树中，亚伯拉罕就取了那只公羊来，献为燔祭，代替他的儿子。

14 And Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. So to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided.”

14 亚伯拉罕给那地方起名叫「耶和华以勒」 ，直到今日人还说：「在耶和华的山上必有预备。」

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

15 耶和华的使者第二次从天上呼叫亚伯拉罕说：

16 saying, “By Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not withheld your only son,

16 「耶和华说：『你既行了这事，不留下你的儿子，就是你独生的儿子，我便指着自己起誓说：

17 I will surely bless you, and I will multiply your descendants like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will possess the gates of their enemies.

17 论福，我必赐大福给你；论子孙，我必叫你的子孙多起来，如同天上的星，海边的沙。你子孙必得着仇敌的城门，

18 And through your offspring all nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”

18 并且地上万国都必因你的后裔得福，因为你听从了我的话。』」

19 Abraham went back to his servants, and they got up and set out together for Beersheba. And Abraham settled in Beersheba.

19 于是亚伯拉罕回到他仆人那里，他们一同起身往别是巴去，亚伯拉罕就住在别是巴。

20 Some time later, Abraham was told, “Milcah has also borne sons to your brother Nahor:

20 这事以后，有人告诉亚伯拉罕说：「密迦给你兄弟拿鹤生了几个儿子，

21 Uz the firstborn, his brother Buz, Kemuel (the father of Aram),

21 长子是乌斯，他的兄弟是布斯和亚兰的父亲基母利，

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

22 并基薛、哈琐、必达、益拉、彼土利（彼土利生利百加）。」

23 And Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. Milcah bore these eight sons to Abraham’s brother Nahor.

23 这八个人都是密迦给亚伯拉罕的兄弟拿鹤生的。

24 Moreover, Nahor’s concubine, whose name was Reumah, bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.

24 拿鹤的妾名叫流玛，生了提八、迦含、他辖，和玛迦。
