Postanak 22
1 Poslije tih događaja Bog stavi Abrahama na kušnju. Zovnu ga: “Abrahame!” On odgovori: “Evo me!”
After these things, God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” He said, “Here I am.”
2 Bog nastavi: “Uzmi svoga sina, jedinca svoga Izaka koga ljubiš, i pođi u krajinu Moriju pa ga ondje prinesi kao žrtvu paljenicu na brdu koje ću ti pokazati.”
He said, “Now take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go into the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of.”
3 Ujutro Abraham podrani, osamari magarca, sa sobom povede dvojicu svojih slugu i svog sina Izaka, pošto je prije nacijepao drva za žrtvu paljenicu, i uputi se na mjesto koje mu je Bog označio.
Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey; and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son. He split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him.
4 Treći dan Abraham podigne oči i opazi mjesto izdaleka.
On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.
5 Abraham onda reče slugama: “Vi ostanite ovdje uz magarca, a ja i dječak odosmo gore da se poklonimo, pa ćemo se vratiti k vama”.
Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go over there. We will worship, and come back to you.”
6 Abraham uzme drva za žrtvu paljenicu, stavi ih na sina Izaka, a u svoju ruku uzme kremen i nož. Tako pođu obojica zajedno.
Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son. He took in his hand the fire and the knife. They both went together.
7 Onda Izak reče svome ocu Abrahamu: “Oče!” “Evo me, sine!” - javi se on. “Evo kremena i drva,” opet će sin, “ali gdje je janje za žrtvu paljenicu?”
Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, “My father?” He said, “Here I am, my son.” He said, “Here is the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?”
8 “Bog će već providjeti janje za žrtvu paljenicu, sine moj!” - odgovori Abraham. I nastave put.
Abraham said, “God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they both went together.
9 Stignu na mjesto o kojemu je Bog govorio. Ondje Abraham podigne žrtvenik, naslaže drva, sveže svog sina Izaka i položi ga po drvima na žrtvenik.
They came to the place which God had told him of. Abraham built the altar there, and laid the wood in order, bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, on the wood.
10 Pruži sad Abraham ruku i uzme nož da zakolje svog sina.
Abraham stretched out his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.
11 Uto ga zovne s neba anđeo Jahvin i poviče: “Abrahame! Abrahame!” “Evo me!” - odgovori on.
Yahweh’s angel called to him out of the sky, and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” He said, “Here I am.”
12 “Ne spuštaj ruku na dječaka”, reče, “niti mu što čini! Sad, evo, znam da se Boga bojiš, jer nisi uskratio ni svog sina, jedinca svoga.”
He said, “Don’t lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.”
13 Podiže Abraham oči i pogleda, i gle - za njim ovan, rogovima se zapleo u grmu. Tako Abraham ode, uzme ovna i prinese ga za žrtvu paljenicu mjesto svoga sina.
Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and saw that behind him was a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering instead of his son.
14 Onome mjestu Abraham dade ime “Jahve proviđa”. Zato se danas veli: “Na brdu Jahvina proviđanja.”
Abraham called the name of that place “Yahweh Will Provide”. As it is said to this day, “On Yahweh’s mountain, it will be provided.”
15 Anđeo Jahvin zovne Abrahama s neba drugi put
Yahweh’s angel called to Abraham a second time out of the sky,
16 i reče: “Kunem se samim sobom, izjavljuje Jahve: Kad si to učinio i nisi mi uskratio svog jedinca sina,
and said, “‘I have sworn by myself,’ says Yahweh, ‘because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son,
17 svoj ću blagoslov na te izliti i učiniti tvoje potomstvo brojnim poput zvijezda na nebu i pijeska na obali morskoj! A tvoji će potomci osvajati vrata svojih neprijatelja.
that I will bless you greatly, and I will multiply your offspring greatly like the stars of the heavens, and like the sand which is on the seashore. Your offspring will possess the gate of his enemies.
18 Budući da si poslušao moju zapovijed, svi će se narodi zemlje blagoslivljati tvojim potomstvom.”
All the nations of the earth will be blessed by your offspring, because you have obeyed my voice.’”
19 Zatim se Abraham vrati k svojim slugama pa se zajedno upute u Beer Šebu. U Beer Šebi se Abraham nastani.
So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba. Abraham lived at Beersheba.
20 Poslije tih događaja obavijeste Abrahama: “I tvome bratu Nahoru Milka je porodila djecu:
After these things, Abraham was told, “Behold, Milcah, she also has borne children to your brother Nahor:
21 njegova prvorođenca Usa, brata mu Buza i Kemuela - oca Aramova,
Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 Keseda, Haza, Pildaša, Jidlafa i Betuela.”
Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.”
23 Betuel je bio otac Rebekin. Njih je osam rodila Milka Nahoru, Abrahamovu bratu.
Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham’s brother.
24 A i njegova suložnica, kojoj bijaše ime Reuma, rodila je Tebaha, Gahama, Tahaša i Maaku.
His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
