Genèse 22
1 Et il arriva, après ces choses, que Dieu éprouva Abraham, et lui dit: Abraham! Et il dit: Me voici.
And it came to pass after these things that God tempted Abraam, and said to him, Abraam, Abraam; and he said, Lo! I [am here].
2 Et [Dieu] dit: Prends ton fils, ton unique, celui que tu aimes, Isaac, et va-t’en au pays de Morija, et là offre-le en holocauste, sur une des montagnes que je te dirai.
And he said, Take thy son, the beloved one, whom thou hast loved—Isaac, and go into the high land, and offer him there for a whole-burnt-offering on one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
3 Et Abraham se leva de bon matin et bâta son âne et prit avec lui deux de ses jeunes hommes, et Isaac, son fils; et il fendit le bois pour l’holocauste, et se leva, et s’en alla vers le lieu que Dieu lui avait dit.
And Abraam rose up in the morning and saddled his ass, and he took with him two servants, and Isaac his son, and having split wood for a whole-burnt-offering, he arose and departed, and came to the place of which God spoke to him,
4 Le troisième jour, Abraham leva ses yeux, et vit le lieu de loin.
on the third day; and Abraam having lifted up his eyes, saw the place afar off.
5 Et Abraham dit à ses jeunes hommes: Restez ici, vous, avec l’âne; et moi et l’enfant nous irons jusque-là, et nous adorerons; et nous reviendrons vers vous.
And Abraam said to his servants, Sit ye here with the ass, and I and the lad will proceed thus far, and having worshipped we will return to you.
6 Et Abraham prit le bois de l’holocauste, et le mit sur Isaac, son fils; et il prit dans sa main le feu et le couteau; et ils allaient les deux ensemble.
And Abraam took the wood of the whole-burnt-offering, and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took into his hands both the fire and the knife, and the two went together.
7 Et Isaac parla à Abraham, son père, et dit: Mon père! Et il dit: Me voici, mon fils. Et il dit: Voici le feu et le bois; mais où est l’agneau pour l’holocauste?
And Isaac said to Abraam his father, Father. And he said, What is it, son? And he said, Behold the fire and the wood, where is the sheep for a whole-burnt-offering?
8 Et Abraham dit: Mon fils, Dieu se pourvoira de l’agneau pour l’holocauste. Et ils allaient les deux ensemble.
And Abraam said, God will provide himself a sheep for a whole-burnt-offering, [my] son. And both having gone together,
9 Et ils arrivèrent au lieu que Dieu lui avait dit. Et Abraham bâtit là l’autel, et arrangea le bois, et lia Isaac, son fils, et le mit sur l’autel, sur le bois.
came to the place which God spoke of to him; and there Abraam built the altar, and laid the wood on it, and having bound the feet of Isaac his son together, he laid him on the altar upon the wood.
10 Et Abraham étendit sa main et prit le couteau pour égorger son fils.
And Abraam stretched forth his hand to take the knife to slay his son.
11 Mais l’Ange de l’Éternel lui cria des cieux, et dit: Abraham! Abraham! Et il dit: Me voici.
And an angel of the Lord called him out of heaven, and said, Abraam, Abraam. And he said, Behold, I [am here].
12 Et il dit: N’étends pas ta main sur l’enfant, et ne lui fais rien; car maintenant je sais que tu crains Dieu, et que tu ne m’as pas refusé ton fils, ton unique.
And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the child, neither do anything to him, for now I know that thou fearest God, and for my sake thou hast not spared thy beloved son.
13 Et Abraham leva ses yeux, et vit, et voici, il y avait derrière [lui] un bélier retenu à un buisson par les cornes; et Abraham alla et prit le bélier, et l’offrit en holocauste à la place de son fils.
And Abraam lifted up his eyes and beheld, and lo! a ram caught by his horns in a plant of Sabec; and Abraam went and took the ram, and offered him up for a whole-burnt-offering in the place of Isaac his son.
14 Et Abraham appela le nom de ce lieu-là: Jéhovah-Jiré, comme on dit aujourd’hui: En la montagne de l’Éternel il y sera pourvu.
And Abraam called the name of that place, The Lord hath seen; that they might say to-day, In the mount the Lord was seen.
15 Et l’Ange de l’Éternel cria des cieux à Abraham, une seconde fois,
And an angel of the Lord called Abraam the second time out of heaven, saying, I have sworn by myself, says the Lord, because thou hast done this thing, and on my account hast not spared thy beloved son,
16 et dit: J’ai juré par moi-même, dit l’Éternel: Parce que tu as fait cette chose-là, et que tu n’as pas refusé ton fils, ton unique,
surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand which is by the shore of the sea, and thy seed shall inherit the cities of their enemies.
17 certainement je te bénirai, et je multiplierai abondamment ta semence comme les étoiles des cieux et comme le sable qui est sur le bord de la mer; et ta semence possédera la porte de ses ennemis.
And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou hast hearkened to my voice.
18 Et toutes les nations de la terre se béniront en ta semence, parce que tu as écouté ma voix.
And Abraam returned to his servants, and they arose and went together to the well of the oath; and Abraam dwelt at the well of the oath.
19 Et Abraham retourna vers ses jeunes hommes; et ils se levèrent, et s’en allèrent ensemble à Beër-Shéba; et Abraham habita à Beër-Shéba.
And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Abraam, saying, Behold, Melcha herself too has born sons to Nachor thy brother,
20 Et il arriva, après ces choses, qu’on rapporta à Abraham en disant: Voici, Milca, elle aussi, a enfanté des enfants à Nakhor, ton frère:
Uz the first-born, and Baux his brother, and Camuel the father of the Syrians, and Chazad, and
21 Uts, son premier-né; et Buz, son frère; et Kemuel, père d’Aram;
Azav and Phaldes, and Jeldaph, and Bathuel, and Bathuel begot Rebecca;
22 et Késed, et Hazo, et Pildash, et Jidlaph, et Bethuel.
these are eight sons, which Melcha bore to Nachor the brother of Abraam.
23 Or Bethuel engendra Rebecca. Milca enfanta ces huit à Nakhor, frère d’Abraham.
And his concubine whose name was Rheuma, she also bore Tabec, and Taam, and Tochos, and Mocha.
24 Et sa concubine, nommée Reüma, elle aussi enfanta Tébakh, et Gakham, et Thakhash, et Maaca.
