창세기(Genesis) 22장

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

2. Then God said, “Take your son, your
only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go
to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him
there as a burnt offering on one of the
mountains I will tell you about.”

3. Early the next morning Abraham got
up and saddled his donkey. He took
with him two of his servants and his
son Isaac. When he had cut enough
wood for the burnt offering, he set
out for the place God had told him
about.

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

5. He said to his servants, “Stay here with
the donkey while I and the boy go over
there. We will worship and then we will
come back to you.”

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

7. Isaac spoke up and said to his father
Abraham, “Father?” “Yes, my son?”
Abraham replied. “The fire and wood
are here,” Isaac said, “but where is
the lamb for the burnt offering?”

8. Abraham answered, “God himself
will provide the lamb for the burnt
offering, my son.” And the two of
them went on together.

9. When they reached the place God
had told him about, Abraham built
an altar there and arranged the
wood on it. He bound his son Isaac
and laid him on the altar, on top of
the wood.

10. Then he reached out his hand and
took the knife to slay his son.

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

12. “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said.
“Do not do anything to him. Now I know
that you fear God, because you have not
withheld from me your son, your only
son.”

13. Abraham looked up and there in a
thicket he saw a ram caught by its
horns. He went over and took the
ram and sacrificed it as a burnt
offering instead of his son.

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

15. The angel of the LORD called to
Abraham from heaven a second
time

16. and said, “I swear by myself, declares
the LORD, that because you have done
this and have not withheld your son,
your only son,

17. I will surely bless you and make your
descendants as numerous as the stars
in the sky and as the sand on the
seashore. Your descendants will take
possession of the cities of their
enemies,

18. and through your offspring all nations
on earth will be blessed, because you
have obeyed me.”

19. Then Abraham returned to his
servants, and they set off together
for Beersheba. and Abraham stayed
in Beersheba.

20. Some time later Abraham was told,
“Milcah is also a mother; she has borne
sons to your brother Nahor:

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

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

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

24. His concubine, whose name was
Reumah, also had sons: Tebah, Gaham,
Tahash and Maacah.
