Gn 22 (King James)

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.
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.
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.
⁴ Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
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.
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.
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?
⁸ And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
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.
¹⁰ And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
¹¹ And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
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.
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.
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.
¹⁵ And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
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:
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;
¹⁸ And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.
¹⁹ So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.
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;
²¹ Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
²² And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
²³ And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
²⁴ And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.

Gn 22 (Segond 21)

Mise à l'épreuve d'Abraham

¹ Après cela, Dieu mit Abraham à l'épreuve. Il lui dit: «Abraham!» Celui-ci répondit: «Me voici!»
² Dieu dit: «Prends ton fils unique, celui que tu aimes, Isaac. Va-t'en au pays de Morija et là offre-le en holocauste sur l'une des montagnes que je t'indiquerai.»
³ Abraham se leva de bon matin, sella son âne et prit avec lui deux serviteurs et son fils Isaac. Il fendit du bois pour l'holocauste et partit pour aller à l'endroit que Dieu lui avait indiqué.
⁴ Le troisième jour, Abraham leva les yeux et vit l'endroit de loin.
⁵ Il dit à ses serviteurs: «Restez ici avec l'âne. Le jeune homme et moi, nous irons jusque là-bas pour adorer, puis nous reviendrons vers vous.»
⁶ Abraham prit le bois pour l'holocauste, le chargea sur son fils Isaac et porta lui-même le feu et le couteau. Ils marchèrent tous les deux ensemble.
⁷ Alors Isaac s'adressa à son père Abraham en disant: «Mon père!» Il répondit: «Me voici, mon fils!» Isaac reprit: «Voici le feu et le bois, mais où se trouve l'agneau pour l'holocauste?»
⁸ Abraham répondit: «Mon fils, Dieu pourvoira lui-même à l'agneau pour l'holocauste.» Et ils continuèrent à marcher tous les deux ensemble.
⁹ Lorsqu'ils furent arrivés à l'endroit que Dieu lui avait indiqué, Abraham y construisit un autel et rangea le bois. Il attacha son fils Isaac et le mit sur l'autel par-dessus le bois.
¹⁰ Puis Abraham tendit la main et prit le couteau pour égorger son fils.
¹¹ Alors l'ange de l'Eternel l'appela depuis le ciel et dit: «Abraham! Abraham!» Il répondit: «Me voici!»
¹² L'ange dit: «Ne porte pas la main sur l'enfant et ne lui fais rien, car je sais maintenant que tu crains Dieu et que tu ne m'as pas refusé ton fils unique.»
¹³ Abraham leva les yeux et vit [derrière lui] un bélier retenu par les cornes dans un buisson. Il alla prendre le bélier et l'offrit en holocauste à la place de son fils.
¹⁴ Abraham donna à cet endroit le nom de Yahvé-Jiré. C'est pourquoi l'on dit aujourd'hui: «A la montagne de l'Eternel il sera pourvu.»
¹⁵ L'ange de l'Eternel appela une deuxième fois Abraham depuis le ciel.
¹⁶ Il dit: «*Je le jure par moi-même – déclaration de l'Eternel –, parce que tu as fait cela et que tu n'as pas refusé ton fils unique,
¹⁷ je te bénirai et je multiplierai ta descendance: elle sera *aussi nombreuse que les étoiles du ciel, pareille au sable qui est au bord de la mer. De plus, ta descendance possédera les villes de ses ennemis.
¹⁸ *Toutes les nations de la terre seront bénies en ta descendance, parce que tu m'as obéi.»
¹⁹ Abraham retourna vers ses serviteurs. Ils se levèrent et repartirent ensemble à Beer-Shéba. En effet, Abraham habitait à Beer-Shéba.
²⁰ Après cela, on annonça à Abraham: «Milca a aussi donné des fils à ton frère Nachor:
²¹ Uts, son aîné, Buz, son frère, Kemuel, le père d'Aram,
²² Késed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph et Bethuel.
²³ Bethuel a eu pour fille Rebecca. Voilà les huit fils que Milca a donnés à Nachor, le frère d'Abraham.
²⁴ Sa concubine, appelée Réuma, a aussi mis au monde Thébach, Gaham, Tahash et Maaca.»

Gn 22 (Vulgate)

¹ Quæ postquam gesta sunt, tentavit Deus Abraham, et dixit ad eum : Abraham, Abraham. At ille respondit : Adsum.
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.
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.
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 imposuit 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 autem Abraham : Deus providebit sibi victimam holocausti, fili mi. Pergebant ergo pariter.
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.
¹⁰ Extenditque manum, et arripuit gladium, ut immolaret filium suum.
¹¹ Et ecce angelus Domini de cælo clamavit, dicens : Abraham, Abraham. Qui respondit : Adsum.
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.
¹³ Levavit Abraham oculos suos, viditque post tergum arietem inter vepres hærentem cornibus, quem assumens 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 cælo, dicens :
¹⁶ Per memetipsum juravi, dicit Dominus : quia fecisti hanc rem, et non pepercisti filio tuo unigenito propter me :
¹⁷ benedicam tibi, et multiplicabo semen tuum sicut stellas cæli, et velut arenam quæ est in littore maris : possidebit semen tuum portas inimicorum suorum,
¹⁸ et benedicentur in semine tuo omnes gentes terræ, quia obedisti voci meæ.
¹⁹ Reversus est Abraham ad pueros suos, abieruntque Bersabee simul, et habitavit ibi.
²⁰ His ita gestis, nuntiatum est Abrahæ quod Melcha quoque genuisset filios Nachor fratri suo :
²¹ Hus primogenitum, et Buz fratrem ejus, et Camuel patrem Syrorum,
²² et Cased, et Azau, Pheldas quoque et Jedlaph,
²³ ac Bathuel, de quo nata est Rebecca : octo istos genuit Melcha, Nachor fratri Abrahæ.
²⁴ Concubina vero illius, nomine Roma, peperit Tabee, et Gaham, et Thahas, et Maacha.
