1And it happened after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, Abraham; and he said, Here I am. 2And he said, Take now your son, your only son, whom you love, even Isaac, and go into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt-offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell you of. 3And Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he split the wood for the burnt-offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him. 4On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off. 5And Abraham said to his young men, Stay here with the donkey, and I and the lad will go over there; and we will worship, and come again to you. 6And Abraham took the wood of the burnt-offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took in his hand the fire and the knife; and both of them went together. 7And Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here I am, my son. And he said, Behold, the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt-offering? 8And Abraham said, God will provide for himself the lamb for a burnt-offering, my son: so both of them went together. 9And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built the altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, upon the wood. 10And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son. 11And the angel of Yehovah called to him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here I am. 12And he said, Do not lay your hand on the lad, nor do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me. 13And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, behind him a ram caught in the thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt-offering instead of his son. 14And Abraham called the name of that place Yehovah-jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of Yehovah it shall be provided. 15And the angel of Yehovah called to Abraham a second time out of heaven, 16and said, By myself I have sworn, says Yehovah, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17that in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is upon the sea-shore; and your seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; 18and in your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed; because you have obeyed my voice. 19So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba. 20And it happened after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she also has borne children to your brother Nahor: 21Uz his first-born, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram, 22and Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel. 23And Bethuel fathered Rebekah: these eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham’s brother. 24And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she also bore Tebah, and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maacah.
