Genesis 22

The Message Bible MSG

1 After all this, God tested Abraham. God said, "Abraham!" "Yes?" answered Abraham. "I'm listening."

2 He said, "Take your dear son Isaac whom you love and go to the land of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains that I'll point out to you."

3 Abraham got up early in the morning and saddled his donkey. He took two of his young servants and his son Isaac. He had split wood for the burnt offering. He set out for the place God had directed him.

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

5 Abraham told his two young servants, "Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I are going over there to worship; then we'll come back to you."

6 Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and gave it to Isaac his son to carry. He carried the flint and the knife. The two of them went off together.

7 Isaac said to Abraham his father, "Father?" "Yes, my son." "We have flint and wood, but where's the sheep for the burnt offering?"

8 Abraham said, "Son, God will see to it that there's a sheep for the burnt offering." And they kept on walking together.

9 They arrived at the place to which God had directed him. Abraham built an altar. He laid out the wood. Then he tied up Isaac and laid him on the wood.

10 Abraham reached out and took the knife to kill his son.

11 Just then an angel of God called to him out of Heaven, "Abraham! Abraham!" "Yes, I'm listening."

12 "Don't lay a hand on that boy! Don't touch him! Now I know how fearlessly you fear God; you didn't hesitate to place your son, your dear son, on the altar for me."

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

14 Abraham named that place God-Yireh (God-Sees-to-It). That's where we get the saying, "On the mountain of God, he sees to it."

15 The angel of God spoke from Heaven a second time to Abraham:

16 "I swear - God's sure word! - because you have gone through with this, and have not refused to give me your son, your dear, dear son,

17 I'll bless you - oh, how I'll bless you! And I'll make sure that your children flourish - like stars in the sky! like sand on the beaches! And your descendants will defeat their enemies.

18 All nations on Earth will find themselves blessed through your descendants because you obeyed me."

19 Then Abraham went back to his young servants. They got things together and returned to Beersheba. Abraham settled down in Beersheba.

20 After all this, Abraham got the news: "Your brother Nahor is a father! Milcah has given him children:

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

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

23 (Bethuel was the father of Rebekah.) Milcah gave these eight sons to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

24 His concubine, Reumah, gave him four more children: Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 quae postquam gesta sunt temptavit Deus Abraham et dixit ad eum Abraham ille respondit adsum

2 ait ei tolle filium tuum unigenitum quem diligis Isaac et vade in terram Visionis atque offer eum ibi holocaustum super unum montium quem monstravero tibi

3 igitur Abraham de nocte consurgens stravit asinum suum ducens secum duos iuvenes et Isaac filium suum cumque concidisset ligna in holocaustum abiit ad locum quem praeceperat ei Deus

4 die autem tertio elevatis oculis vidit locum procul

5 dixitque ad pueros suos expectate hic cum asino ego et puer illuc usque properantes postquam adoraverimus revertemur ad vos

6 tulit quoque ligna holocausti et inposuit super Isaac filium suum ipse vero portabat in manibus ignem et gladium cumque duo pergerent simul

7 dixit Isaac patri suo pater mi at ille respondit quid vis fili ecce inquit ignis et ligna ubi est victima holocausti

8 dixit Abraham Deus providebit sibi victimam holocausti fili mi pergebant ergo pariter

9 veneruntque ad locum quem ostenderat ei Deus in quo aedificavit altare et desuper ligna conposuit cumque conligasset Isaac filium suum posuit eum in altari super struem lignorum

10 extenditque manum et arripuit gladium ut immolaret filium

11 et ecce angelus Domini de caelo clamavit dicens Abraham Abraham qui respondit adsum

12 dixitque ei non extendas manum tuam super puerum neque facias illi quicquam nunc cognovi quod timeas Dominum et non peperceris filio tuo unigenito propter me

13 levavit Abraham oculos viditque post tergum arietem inter vepres herentem cornibus quem adsumens obtulit holocaustum pro filio

14 appellavitque nomen loci illius Dominus videt unde usque hodie dicitur in monte Dominus videbit

15 vocavit autem angelus Domini Abraham secundo de caelo dicens

16 per memet ipsum iuravi dicit Dominus quia fecisti rem hanc et non pepercisti filio tuo unigenito

17 benedicam tibi et multiplicabo semen tuum sicut stellas caeli et velut harenam quae est in litore maris possidebit semen tuum portas inimicorum suorum

18 et benedicentur in semine tuo omnes gentes terrae quia oboedisti voci meae

19 reversus est Abraham ad pueros suos abieruntque Bersabee simul et habitavit ibi

20 his itaque gestis nuntiatum est Abraham quod Melcha quoque genuisset filios Nahor fratri suo

21 Hus primogenitum et Buz fratrem eius Camuhel patrem Syrorum

22 et Chased et Azau Pheldas quoque et Iedlaph

23 ac Bathuel de quo nata est Rebecca octo istos genuit Melcha Nahor fratri Abraham

24 concubina vero illius nomine Roma peperit Tabee et Gaom et Thaas et Maacha
