Jenèz 22
1 Apre tout bagay sa yo, Bondye sonde Abraram pou wè sou ki pye li ye avè l'. Bondye rele l' -Abraram! Abraram! Abraram reponn-Men mwen wi!
It happened after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham, Abraham." He said, "Here I am."
2 Bondye di l': -Pran Izarak, pitit ou a, sèl pitit gason ou genyen an, pitit ou renmen anpil la. Ale nan peyi Morija, w'a moute sou tèt mòn mwen pral moutre ou la. Lè w'a rive la, w'a touye l'. Apre sa, w'a boule l' nèt pou mwen.
He said, "Now take your son, your only one, whom you love, even Isaac, 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 Nan denmen maten, bonè bonè, Abraram leve, li sele bourik li, li pran Izarak ansanm ak de nan domestik li yo. Li fann kèk moso bwa pou l' fè dife pou boule vyann bèt l'ap ofri a. Epi li pati nan direksyon kote Bondye te di l' la.
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 Sou twa jou, Abraram gade, li wè kote a yon bon ti bout devan l'.
On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.
5 Abraram di domestik li yo. -Nou menm, mesye, rete isit la ak bourik la. Mwen menm ak ti gason an, nou pral jouk lòt bò a, pou nou fè sèvis pou Bondye. Apre sa, n'a tounen vin jwenn nou.
Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go over there, and we will worship, and come back to you."
6 Abraram pran bwa pou fè dife a, li bay Izarak pote li. Li menm, li pote bagay pou limen dife a ansanm ak yon kouto nan men l'. Yo tout de pati ansanm.
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 Pandan y'ap mache konsa, Izarak di Abraram: -Papa! Abraram reponn: -Wi, pitit mwen! Izarak mande l': -Mwen wè ou gen dife ak bwa. Men, kote mouton pou boule a?
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 Abraram reponn: -Pitit mwen, se sou kont Bondye sa ye. Yo toude t'ap kontinye mache ansanm.
Abraham said, "God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So they both went together.
9 Lè yo rive kote Bondye te di l' la, Abraram moute yon lotèl, li ranje bwa yo sou li. Li mare Izarak, pitit gason l' lan, li mete l' sou lotèl la, anwo bwa yo.
They came to the place which God had told him of. Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood, and bound his son Isaac and placed him on the altar, on top of the wood.
10 Apre sa, li lonje men l', li pran kouto a pou l' koupe kou ti gason an.
Abraham reached out his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.
11 Men, zanj Bondye a rete nan syèl la, li rele l': -Abraram! Abraram! Abraram reponn. -Men mwen wi!
But an angel of God called to him out of the sky, and said, "Abraham, Abraham." And he said, "Here I am."
12 Zanj lan di l' -Pa leve men ou sou ti gason an. Pa fè l' anyen. Koulye a mwen konnen ou gen krentif pou Bondye vre, paske ou pa t' derefize touye sèl pitit gason ou lan pou mwen.
He said, "Do not lay your hand on the boy, neither do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only one, from me."
13 Abraram voye je l', li wè yon belye mouton ki te gen kòn li yo makònen nan yon lyann. li ale, li pran mouton an, li touye l', li boule li nèt sou lotèl la pou Bondye nan plas pitit li a.
And Abraham looked up and saw behind him a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up as a burnt offering instead of his son.
14 Abraram rele kote sa a: Se sou kont Seyè a sa ye. Se poutèt sa, jouk jòdi a, moun ap repete: Sou mòn Seyè a, tout bagay sou kont li.
Abraham called the name of that place Elohim Yireh. As it is said to this day, "On the mountain, God will provide."
15 Zanj Bondye a rete nan syèl la, li pale ak Abraram yon dezyèm fwa, li di l' konsa:
The angel of God called to Abraham a second time out of the sky,
16 -Mwen sèmante sou tèt mwen. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa. Mwen gen pou m' beni ou anpil poutèt sa ou fè a. Ou pa t' refize ban mwen pitit ou a, sèl pitit gason ou genyen an.
and said, "I have sworn by myself," says the LORD, "because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only one, from me,
17 Mwen pwomèt pou m' ba ou anpil pitit pitit. Y'ap tankou zetwal nan syèl la, tankou grenn sab bò lanmè. Y'a bat tout lènmi yo.
I will indeed bless you, and I will greatly multiply your offspring like the stars of the sky, and like the sand which is on the seashore; and your offspring will possess the gate of their enemies.
18 Gremesi tout pitit pitit ou yo, tout nasyon sou latè pral jwenn benediksyon. Wi, yo tout, paske ou te fè sa m' te mande ou fè a.
And through your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice."
19 Abraram tounen bò kote domestik li yo, domestik yo pati ansanm avè l' pou peyi Bècheba, kote Abraram te rete a.
So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba. Abraham lived at Beersheba.
20 Apre tout bagay sa yo, yo vin di Abraram konsa: -Tande non. Milka fè pitit tout wi pou Nak, frè ou la.
It happened after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, "Look, Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor:
21 Premye pitit la rele Ouz. Apre li, vini Bouz, Kemwèl, papa Aram,
Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 Kesèd, Azò, Pildach, Jidlaf ak Betwèl.
Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel."
23 Se Betwèl ki papa Rebeka. Se wit gason sa yo Milka te fè pou Nakò, frè Abraram lan.
Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
24 Reouma, fanm kay Nakò a te fè pitit tout pou li: se te Tebak, Gam, Tach ak Maka.
His secondary wife, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
