Genesis 22

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].

ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὰ ρήματα ταῦτα ὁ Θεός ἐπείρασε τὸν ῾Αβραὰμ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· ῾Αβραάμ, ῾Αβραάμ. ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ ἐγώ.

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.

καὶ εἶπε· λαβὲ τὸν υἱόν σου τὸν ἀγαπητόν, ὃν ἠγάπησας, τὸν ᾿Ισαάκ, καὶ πορεύθητι εἰς τὴν γῆν τὴν ὑψηλὴν καὶ ἀνένεγκον αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ εἰς ὁλοκάρπωσιν ἐφ᾿ ἓν τῶν ὀρέων, ὧν ἄν σοι εἴπω.

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,

ἀναστὰς δὲ ῾Αβραὰμ τὸ πρωῒ ἐπέσαξε τὴν ὄνον αὐτοῦ· παρέλαβε δὲ μεθ᾿ ἑαυτοῦ δύο παῖδας καὶ ᾿Ισαὰκ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ σχίσας ξύλα εἰς ὁλοκάρπωσιν, ἀναστὰς ἐπορεύθη καὶ ἦλθεν ἐπὶ τὸν τόπον, ὃν εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ Θεός, τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ.

on the third day; and Abraam having lifted up his eyes, saw the place afar off.

καὶ ἀναβλέψας ῾Αβραὰμ τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ, εἶδε τὸν τόπον μακρόθεν.

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.

καὶ εἶπεν ῾Αβραὰμ τοῖς παισὶν αὐτοῦ· καθίσατε αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῆς ὄνου, ἐγὼ δὲ καὶ τὸ παιδάριον διελευσόμεθα ἕως ὧδε καὶ προσκυνήσαντες ἀναστρέψομεν πρὸς ὑμᾶς.

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.

ἔλαβε δὲ ῾Αβραὰμ τὰ ξύλα τῆς ὁλοκαρπώσεως καὶ ἐπέθηκεν ᾿Ισαὰκ τῷ υἱῷ αὐτοῦ· ἔλαβε δὲ μετὰ χεῖρας καὶ τὸ πῦρ καὶ τὴν μάχαιραν, καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν οἱ δύο ἅμα.

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?

εἶπε δὲ ᾿Ισαὰκ πρὸς ῾Αβραὰμ τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ· πάτερ. ὁ δὲ εἶπε· τί ἐστι, τέκνον; εἶπε δέ· ἰδοὺ τὸ πῦρ καὶ τὰ ξύλα· ποῦ ἐστι τὸ πρόβατον τὸ εἰς ὁλοκάρπωσιν;

And Abraam said, God will provide himself a sheep for a whole-burnt-offering, [my] son. And both having gone together,

εἶπε δὲ ῾Αβραάμ· ὁ Θεὸς ὄψεται ἑαυτῷ πρόβατον εἰς ὁλοκάρπωσιν, τέκνον. πορευθέντες δὲ ἀμφότεροι ἅμα,

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.

ἦλθον ἐπὶ τὸν τόπον, ὃν εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ Θεός. καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐκεῖ ῾Αβραὰμ τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ ἐπέθηκε τὰ ξύλα, καὶ συμποδίσας ᾿Ισαὰκ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ, ἐπέθηκεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον ἐπάνω τῶν ξύλων.

And Abraam stretched forth his hand to take the knife to slay his son.

καὶ ἐξέτεινεν ῾Αβραὰμ τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ λαβεῖν τὴν μάχαιραν σφάξαι τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ.

And an angel of the Lord called him out of heaven, and said, Abraam, Abraam. And he said, Behold, I [am here].

καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ εἶπεν· ῾Αβραάμ, ῾Αβραάμ. ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ ἐγώ.

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.

καὶ εἶπε· μὴ ἐπιβάλῃς τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐπὶ τὸ παιδάριον μηδὲ ποιήσῃς αὐτῷ μηδέν· νῦν γὰρ ἔγνων, ὅτι φοβῇ σὺ τὸν Θεὸν καὶ οὐκ ἐφείσω τοῦ υἱοῦ σου τοῦ ἀγαπητοῦ δι᾿ ἐμέ.

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.

καὶ ἀναβλέψας ῾Αβραὰμ τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ εἶδε, καὶ ἰδοὺ κριὸς εἷς κατεχόμενος ἐν φυτῷ Σαβὲκ τῶν κεράτων· καὶ ἐπορεύθη ῾Αβραὰμ καὶ ἔλαβε τὸν κριὸν καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν αὐτὸν εἰς ὁλοκάρπωσιν ἀντὶ ᾿Ισαὰκ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ.

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.

καὶ ἐκάλεσεν ῾Αβραὰμ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου, Κύριος εἶδεν, ἵνα εἴπωσι σήμερον, ἐν τῷ ὄρει Κύριος ὤφθη.

And an angel of the Lord called Abraam the second time out of heaven, saying,

καὶ ἐκάλεσεν ἄγγελος Κυρίου τὸν ῾Αβραὰμ δεύτερον ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, λέγων·

I have sworn by myself, says the Lord, because thou hast done this thing, and on my account hast not spared thy beloved son,

κατ᾿ ἐμαυτοῦ ὤμοσα, λέγει Κύριος, οὗ εἵνεκεν ἐποίησας τὸ ρῆμα τοῦτο, καὶ οὐκ ἐφείσω τοῦ υἱοῦ σου τοῦ ἀγαπητοῦ δι᾿ ἐμέ,

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.

ἦ μὴν εὐλογῶν εὐλογήσω σε, καὶ πληθύνων πληθυνῶ τὸ σπέρμα σου, ὡς τοὺς ἀστέρας τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ὡς τὴν ἄμμον τὴν παρὰ τὸ χεῖλος τῆς θαλάσσης, καὶ κληρονομήσει τὸ σπέρμα σου τὰς πόλεις τῶν ὑπεναντίων·

And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou hast hearkened to my voice.

καὶ ἐνευλογηθήσονται ἐν τῷ σπέρματί σου πάντα τὰ ἔθνη τῆς γῆς, ἀνθ᾿ ὧν ὑπήκουσας τῆς ἐμῆς φωνῆς.

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.

ἀπεστράφη δὲ ῾Αβραὰμ πρὸς τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀναστάντες ἐπορεύθησαν ἅμα ἐπὶ τὸ φρέαρ τοῦ ὅρκου. καὶ κατῴκησεν ῾Αβραὰμ ἐπὶ τὸ φρέαρ τοῦ ὅρκου.

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,

᾿Εγένετο δὲ μετὰ τὰ ρήματα ταῦτα καὶ ἀνηγγέλη τῷ ῾Αβραὰμ λέγοντες· ἰδοὺ τέτοκε Μελχὰ καὶ αὐτὴ υἱοὺς τῷ Ναχὼρ τῷ ἀδελφῷ σου,

Uz the first-born, and Baux his brother, and Camuel the father of the Syrians,

τὸν Οὒζ πρωτότοκον καὶ τὸν Βαὺξ ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸν Καμουὴλ πατέρα Σύρων

and Chazad, and Azav and Phaldes, and Jeldaph, and Bathuel,

καὶ τὸν Χαζὰδ καὶ ᾿Αζαῦ καὶ τὸν Φαλδὲς καὶ τὸν ᾿Ιελδὰφ καὶ τὸν Βαθουήλ·

and Bathuel begot Rebecca; these are eight sons, which Melcha bore to Nachor the brother of Abraam.

Βαθουὴλ δὲ ἐγέννησε τὴν Ρεβέκκαν. ὀκτὼ οὗτοι υἱοί, οὓς ἔτεκε Μελχὰ τῷ Ναχὼρ τῷ ἀδελφῷ ῾Αβραάμ.

And his concubine whose name was Rheuma, she also bore Tabec, and Taam, and Tochos, and Mocha.

καὶ ἡ παλλακὴ αὐτοῦ, ᾗ ὄνομα Ρεημά, ἔτεκε καὶ αὐτὴ τὸν Ταβὲκ καὶ τὸν Ταὰμ καὶ τὸν Τοχὸς καὶ τὸν Μοχά.
