¹ I Gospod pohodi Saru, kao što beše rekao i učini Gospod Sari kao što beše kazao.

² Jer zatrudne i rodi Sara Avramu sina u starosti njegovoj u isto vreme kad kaza Gospod.

³ I Avram nadede ime sinu koji mu se rodi, kog mu rodi Sara, Isak.

⁴ I obreza Avram sina svog Isaka kad bi od osam dana, kao što mu zapovedi Bog.

⁵ A Avramu beše sto godina kad mu se rodi sin Isak.

⁶ A Sara reče: Bog mi učini smeh; ko god čuje, smejaće mi se.

⁷ I reče: Ko bi rekao Avramu da će Sara dojiti decu? Ipak mu rodih sina u starosti njegovoj.

⁸ A kad dete doraste da se odbije od sise, učini Avram veliku gozbu onaj dan kad odbiše Isaka od sise.

⁹ I Sara vide sina Agare Misirke, koja ga rodi Avramu, gde se podsmeva;

¹⁰ Pa reče Avramu: Oteraj ovu robinju sa sinom njenim, jer sin ove robinje neće biti naslednik s mojim sinom, s Isakom.

¹¹ A to Avramu bi vrlo krivo radi sina njegovog.

¹² Ali Bog reče Avramu: Nemoj da ti je krivo radi deteta i radi robinje tvoje. Šta ti je god kazala Sara, poslušaj; jer će ti se u Isaku seme prozvati.

¹³ Ali ću i od sina robinjinog učiniti narod, jer je tvoje seme.

¹⁴ I Avram ustav ujutru rano, uze hleba i mešinu vode, i dade Agari metnuvši joj na leđa, i dete, i otpusti je. A ona otišavši lutaše po pustinji virsavskoj.

¹⁵ A kad nesta vode u mešini, ona baci dete pod jedno drvo,

¹⁶ Pa otide koliko se može strelom dobaciti, i sede prema njemu; jer govoraše: Da ne gledam kako će umreti dete. I sedeći prema njemu stade glasno plakati.

¹⁷ A Bog ču glas detinji, i anđeo Božji viknu s neba Agaru, i reče joj: Šta ti je Agaro? Ne boj se, jer Bog ču glas detinji odande gde je.

¹⁸ Ustani, digni dete i uzmi ga u naručje; jer ću od njega učiniti velik narod.

¹⁹ I Bog joj otvori oči, te ugleda studenac; i otišavši napuni mešinu vode, i napoji dete.

²⁰ I Bog beše s detetom, te odraste, i živeše u pustinji i posta strelac.

²¹ A živeše u pustinji Faranu. I mati ga oženi iz zemlje misirske.

²² U to vreme reče Avimeleh i Fihol vojvoda njegov Avramu govoreći: Bog je s tobom u svemu što radiš.

²³ Zakuni mi se sada Bogom da nećeš prevariti mene ni sina mog ni unuka mog nego da ćeš dobro onako kako sam ja tebi činio i ti činiti meni i zemlji u kojoj si došljak.

²⁴ A Avram reče: Hoću se zakleti.

²⁵ Ali Avram prekori Avimeleha za studenac, koji uzeše na silu sluge Avimelehove.

²⁶ A Avimeleh reče: Ne znam ko je to učinio; niti mi ti kaza, niti čuh do danas.

²⁷ Tada Avram uze ovaca i goveda, i dade Avimelehu, i uhvati veru među sobom.

²⁸ A Avram odluči sedam jaganjaca iz stada.

²⁹ A Avimeleh reče Avramu: Šta će ono sedam jaganjaca što si odlučio?

³⁰ A on odgovori: Da primiš iz moje ruke ono sedam jaganjaca, da mi bude svedočanstvo da sam ja iskopao ovaj studenac.

³¹ Otuda se prozva ono mesto Virsaveja, jer se onde zakleše obojica.

³² Tako uhvatiše veru na Virsaveji. Tada se diže Avimeleh i Fihol vojvoda njegov, i vratiše se u zemlju filistejsku.

³³ A Avram posadi lug na Virsaveji, i onde prizva ime Gospoda Boga Večnog.

³⁴ I Avram živeše kao došljak u zemlji filistejskoj mnogo vremena.

¹ It happened after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham!" He said, "Here I am."

² He said, "Now take your son, your only son, whom you love, even Isaac, and go into the land of Moriah. Offer him there for a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of."

³ Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son. He split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him.

⁴ On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.

⁵ Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go yonder. We will worship, and come back to you."

⁶ Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son. He took in his hand the fire and the knife. They both went together.

⁷ Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, "My father?" He said, "Here I am, my son." He said, "Here is the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"

⁸ Abraham said, "God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So they both went together.

⁹ They came to the place which God had told him of. Abraham built the altar there, and laid the wood in order, bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, on the wood.

¹⁰ Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.

¹¹ The angel of Yahweh called to him out of the sky, and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" He said, "Here I am."

¹² He said, "Don't lay your hand on the boy, neither do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me."

¹³ Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and saw that behind him was a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering instead of his son.

¹⁴ Abraham called the name of that place Yahweh Will Provide. As it is said to this day, "On Yahweh's mountain, it will be provided."

¹⁵ The angel of Yahweh called to Abraham a second time out of the sky,

¹⁶ and said, "I have sworn by myself, says Yahweh, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son,

¹⁷ that I will bless you greatly, and I will multiply your seed greatly like the stars of the heavens, and like the sand which is on the seashore. Your seed will possess the gate of his enemies.

¹⁸ In your seed will all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice."

¹⁹ So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba. Abraham lived at Beersheba.

²⁰ It happened after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, "Behold, Milcah, she also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

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

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

²³ Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

²⁴ His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
