KJV ¹ And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.

VULC ¹ Quæ postquam gesta sunt, tentavit Deus Abraham, et dixit ad eum : Abraham, Abraham. At ille respondit : Adsum.

KJV ² And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

VULC ² Ait illi : Tolle filium tuum unigenitum, quem diligis, Isaac, et vade in terram visionis, atque ibi offeres eum in holocaustum super unum montium quem monstravero tibi.

KJV ³ And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.

VULC ³ Igitur Abraham de nocte consurgens, stravit asinum suum, ducens secum duos juvenes, et Isaac filium suum : cumque concidisset ligna in holocaustum, abiit ad locum quem præceperat ei Deus.

KJV ⁴ Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.

VULC ⁴ Die autem tertio, elevatis oculis, vidit locum procul :

KJV ⁵ And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.

VULC ⁵ dixitque ad pueros suos : Expectate hic cum asino : ego et puer illuc usque properantes, postquam adoraverimus, revertemur ad vos.

KJV ⁶ And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.

VULC ⁶ Tulit quoque ligna holocausti, et imposuit super Isaac filium suum : ipse vero portabat in manibus ignem et gladium. Cumque duo pergerent simul,

KJV ⁷ And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?

VULC ⁷ dixit Isaac patri suo : Pater mi. At ille respondit : Quid vis, fili ? Ecce, inquit, ignis et ligna : ubi est victima holocausti ?

KJV ⁸ And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.

VULC ⁸ Dixit autem Abraham : Deus providebit sibi victimam holocausti, fili mi. Pergebant ergo pariter.

KJV ⁹ And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.

VULC ⁹ Et venerunt ad locum quem ostenderat ei Deus, in quo ædificavit altare, et desuper ligna composuit ; cumque alligasset Isaac filium suum, posuit eum in altare super struem lignorum.

KJV ¹⁰ And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.

VULC ¹⁰ Extenditque manum, et arripuit gladium, ut immolaret filium suum.

KJV ¹¹ And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.

VULC ¹¹ Et ecce angelus Domini de cælo clamavit, dicens : Abraham, Abraham. Qui respondit : Adsum.

KJV ¹² And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.

VULC ¹² Dixitque ei : Non extendas manum tuam super puerum, neque facias illi quidquam : nunc cognovi quod times Deum, et non pepercisti unigenito filio tuo propter me.

KJV ¹³ And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.

VULC ¹³ Levavit Abraham oculos suos, viditque post tergum arietem inter vepres hærentem cornibus, quem assumens obtulit holocaustum pro filio.

KJV ¹⁴ And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.

VULC ¹⁴ Appellavitque nomen loci illius, Dominus videt. Unde usque hodie dicitur : In monte Dominus videbit.

KJV ¹⁵ And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,

VULC ¹⁵ Vocavit autem angelus Domini Abraham secundo de cælo, dicens :

KJV ¹⁶ And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:

VULC ¹⁶ Per memetipsum juravi, dicit Dominus : quia fecisti hanc rem, et non pepercisti filio tuo unigenito propter me :

KJV ¹⁷ That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;

VULC ¹⁷ benedicam tibi, et multiplicabo semen tuum sicut stellas cæli, et velut arenam quæ est in littore maris : possidebit semen tuum portas inimicorum suorum,

KJV ¹⁸ And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.

VULC ¹⁸ et benedicentur in semine tuo omnes gentes terræ, quia obedisti voci meæ.

KJV ¹⁹ So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.

VULC ¹⁹ Reversus est Abraham ad pueros suos, abieruntque Bersabee simul, et habitavit ibi.

KJV ²⁰ And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;

VULC ²⁰ His ita gestis, nuntiatum est Abrahæ quod Melcha quoque genuisset filios Nachor fratri suo :

KJV ²¹ Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,

VULC ²¹ Hus primogenitum, et Buz fratrem ejus, et Camuel patrem Syrorum,

KJV ²² And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.

VULC ²² et Cased, et Azau, Pheldas quoque et Jedlaph,

KJV ²³ And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

VULC ²³ ac Bathuel, de quo nata est Rebecca : octo istos genuit Melcha, Nachor fratri Abrahæ.

KJV ²⁴ And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.

VULC ²⁴ Concubina vero illius, nomine Roma, peperit Tabee, et Gaham, et Thahas, et Maacha.
