Durch den Glauben opferte Abraham den Isaak, da er versucht ward, und gab dahin den Eingeborenen, da er schon die Verheißungen empfangen hatte,
Por fe ofreció Abraham a Isaac cuando fue probado, y ofrecía al unigénito el que había recibido las promesas,
Por la fe Abraham, al ser puesto a prueba, ofreció a Isaac; el que había recibido las promesas ofrecía a su único hijo,
C'est par la foi qu'Abraham offrit Isaac, lorsqu'il fut mis à l'épreuve, et qu'il offrit son fils unique, lui qui avait reçu les promesses,
Per fede Abrahamo, essendo provato, offerse Isacco; e colui che avea ricevute le promesse offerse il suo unigenito.
Pela fé ofereceu Abraão a Isaque, quando foi provado; sim, aquele que recebera as promessas ofereceu o seu unigênito.
因著信, 亞伯拉罕 被考驗的時候把 以撒 獻上,這就是那領受了應許的人甘心把自己獨生的兒子獻上。
