1 И҆ бы́сть по глаго́лѣхъ си́хъ, бг҃ъ и҆скꙋша́ше а҆враа́ма и҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: а҆враа́ме, а҆враа́ме. И҆ речѐ: сѐ а҆́зъ.
1 After these things, God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” He said, “Here I am.”
2 И҆ речѐ: поимѝ сы́на твоего̀ возлю́бленнаго, є҆го́же возлюби́лъ є҆сѝ, і҆саа́ка, и҆ и҆дѝ на зе́млю высо́кꙋ и҆ вознесѝ є҆го̀ та́мѡ во всесожже́нїе, на є҆ди́нꙋ ѿ го́ръ, и҆̀хже тѝ рекꙋ̀.
2 He said, “Now take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go into the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of.”
3 Воста́въ же а҆враа́мъ ᲂу҆́трѡ, ѡ҆сѣдла̀ ѻ҆слѧ̀ своѐ: поѧ́тъ же съ собо́ю два̀ ѻ҆́трѡчища и҆ і҆саа́ка сы́на своего̀: и҆ растни́въ дрова̀ во всесожже́нїе, воста́въ и҆́де, и҆ прїи́де на мѣ́сто, є҆́же речѐ є҆мꙋ̀ бг҃ъ, въ тре́тїй де́нь.
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 И҆ воззрѣ́въ а҆враа́мъ ѻ҆чи́ма свои́ма, ви́дѣ мѣ́сто и҆здале́че.
4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.
5 И҆ речѐ а҆враа́мъ ѻ҆трокѡ́мъ свои̑мъ: сѧ́дите здѣ̀ со ѻ҆слѧ́темъ: а҆́зъ же и҆ дѣ́тищь по́йдемъ до ѻ҆́ндѣ, и҆ поклони́вшесѧ возврати́мсѧ къ ва́мъ.
5 Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go over there. We will worship, and come back to you.”
6 Взѧ́ же а҆враа́мъ дрова̀ всесожже́нїѧ и҆ возложѝ на і҆саа́ка сы́на своего̀: взѧ́ же въ рꙋ́ки и҆ ѻ҆́гнь, и҆ но́жъ, и҆ и҆до́ста ѻ҆́ба вкꙋ́пѣ.
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 Рече́ же і҆саа́къ ко а҆враа́мꙋ ѻ҆тцꙋ̀ своемꙋ̀: ѻ҆́тче. Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: что́ є҆сть, ча́до; Рече́ же: сѐ, ѻ҆́гнь и҆ дрова̀, гдѣ́ є҆сть ѻ҆вча̀ є҆́же во всесожже́нїе;
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 Рече́ же а҆враа́мъ: бг҃ъ ᲂу҆́зритъ себѣ̀ ѻ҆вча̀ во всесожже́нїе, ча́до. Шє́дша же ѻ҆́ба вкꙋ́пѣ,
8 Abraham said, “God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they both went together.
9 прїидо́ста на мѣ́сто, є҆́же речѐ є҆мꙋ̀ бг҃ъ: и҆ созда̀ та́мѡ а҆враа́мъ же́ртвенникъ и҆ возложѝ дрова̀: и҆ свѧза́въ і҆саа́ка сы́на своего̀, возложѝ є҆го̀ на же́ртвенникъ верхꙋ̀ дро́въ.
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 И҆ прострѐ а҆враа́мъ рꙋ́кꙋ свою̀, взѧ́ти но́жъ, закла́ти сы́на своего̀.
10 Abraham stretched out his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.
11 И҆ воззва̀ и҆̀ а҆́гг҃лъ гдⷭ҇ень съ нб҃сѐ, и҆ речѐ: а҆враа́ме, а҆враа́ме. Ѻ҆́нъ же речѐ: сѐ, а҆́зъ.
11 Yahweh’s angel called to him out of the sky, and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” He said, “Here I am.”
12 И҆ речѐ: да не возложи́ши рꙋкѝ твоеѧ̀ на ѻ҆́трочища, нижѐ да сотвори́ши є҆мꙋ̀ что̀: нн҃ѣ бо позна́хъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ бои́шисѧ ты̀ бг҃а, и҆ не пощадѣ́лъ є҆сѝ сы́на твоегѡ̀ возлю́бленнагѡ менє̀ ра́ди.
12 He said, “Don’t lay your hand on the boy or 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 И҆ воззрѣ́въ а҆враа́мъ ѻ҆чи́ма свои́ма ви́дѣ, и҆ сѐ, ѻ҆ве́нъ є҆ди́нъ держи́мый рога́ма въ са́дѣ саве́къ: и҆ и҆́де а҆враа́мъ, и҆ взѧ̀ ѻ҆вна̀, и҆ вознесѐ є҆го̀ во всесожже́нїе вмѣ́стѡ і҆саа́ка сы́на своегѡ̀.
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 И҆ наречѐ а҆враа́мъ и҆́мѧ мѣ́стꙋ томꙋ̀: гдⷭ҇ь ви́дѣ: да рекꙋ́тъ дне́сь: на горѣ̀ гдⷭ҇ь ꙗ҆ви́сѧ.
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 И҆ воззва̀ а҆́гг҃лъ гдⷭ҇ень а҆враа́ма втори́цею съ нб҃сѐ,
15 Yahweh’s angel called to Abraham a second time out of the sky,
16 глаго́лѧ: мно́ю самѣ́мъ клѧ́хсѧ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, є҆гѡ́же ра́ди сотвори́лъ є҆сѝ глаго́лъ се́й и҆ не пощадѣ́лъ є҆сѝ сы́на твоегѡ̀ возлю́бленнагѡ менє̀ ра́ди:
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 вои́стиннꙋ блгⷭ҇вѧ̀ блгⷭ҇влю́ тѧ, и҆ ᲂу҆множа́ѧ ᲂу҆мно́жꙋ сѣ́мѧ твоѐ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѕвѣ́зды небє́сныѧ, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ песо́къ вскра́й мо́рѧ: и҆ наслѣ́дитъ сѣ́мѧ твоѐ гра́ды сꙋпоста́тѡвъ,
17 that I will bless you greatly, and I will multiply your offspring greatly like the stars of the heavens, and like the sand which is on the seashore. Your offspring will possess the gate of his enemies.
18 и҆ блгⷭ҇вѧ́тсѧ ѡ҆ сѣ́мени твое́мъ всѝ ꙗ҆зы́цы земні́и, зане́же послꙋ́шалъ є҆сѝ гла́са моегѡ̀.
18 All the nations of the earth will be blessed by your offspring, because you have obeyed my voice.’”
19 Возврати́сѧ же а҆враа́мъ ко ѻ҆трокѡ́мъ свои̑мъ, и҆ воста́вше и҆до́ша кꙋ́пнѡ ко кла́дѧзю клѧ́твенномꙋ: и҆ всели́сѧ а҆враа́мъ ᲂу҆ кла́дѧзѧ клѧ́твеннагѡ.
19 So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba. Abraham lived at Beersheba.
20 Бы́сть же по глаго́лѣхъ си́хъ, и҆ повѣ́даша а҆враа́мꙋ, глаго́люще: сѐ, родѝ ме́лха и҆ та̀ сы́ны бра́тꙋ твоемꙋ̀ нахѡ́рꙋ,
20 After these things, Abraham was told, “Behold, Milcah, she also has borne children to your brother Nahor:
21 ѻ҆́ѯа пе́рвенца, и҆ ва́ѵѯа бра́та є҆гѡ̀, и҆ камꙋи́ла ѻ҆тца̀ сѵ́рска,
21 Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 и҆ хаза́да, и҆ а҆за́ѵа, и҆ фалде́са, и҆ є҆лда́фа, и҆ ваѳꙋи́ла:
22 Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.”
23 ваѳꙋи́лъ же родѝ реве́ккꙋ: ѻ҆́смь сі́и сы́нове, и҆̀хже родѝ ме́лха нахѡ́рꙋ бра́тꙋ а҆враа́млю:
23 Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham’s brother.
24 и҆ нало́жница є҆гѡ̀, є҆́йже и҆́мѧ ре́ѵма, родѝ и҆ сїѧ̀ таве́ка, и҆ таа́ма, и҆ тохо́са, и҆ мѡха̀.
24 His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 22:17 Clement of Rome, First Epistle to the Corinthians (Chapters XXVI–XXXIII)

    Nor are his other tribes in small glory, inasmuch as God had promised, "Thy seed shall be as the stars of heaven." All these, therefore, were highly honoured, and made great, not for their own sake, or for their own works, or for the righteousness which they wrought, but through the operation of His will.

    This, I say, is the universal way for the deliverance of believers, concerning which the faithful Abraham received the divine assurance, "In thy seed shall all nations be blessed." He, indeed, was by birth a Chaldæan; but, that he might receive these great promises, and that there might be propagated from him a seed "disposed by angels in the hand …

    And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou anything unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, and hast not spared thy beloved son for my sake." It is said, "Now I know," that is, Now I have made to be known; for God was not previously ignorant of this.
