1And it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, Abraham! And he said, Here am I. 2And He said, Take now your son, your only one Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you. 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 arose and went to the place of which God had told him. 4And on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from a distance. 5And Abraham said to his young men, Stay here with the donkey; and the lad and I will go over there and do homage, and we will come back to you. 6And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife, and the two of them went together. 7And Isaac spoke to 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? 8And Abraham said, My son, God will provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering. So the two of them went together. 9And they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood. 10And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. 11And the Angel of Jehovah called to him from the heavens and said, Abraham! Abraham! And he said, Here am I. 12And He said, Do not lay your hand upon the lad, or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only one from Me. 13And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. And Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son. 14And Abraham called the name of the place, Jehovah Jireh; as it is said to this day, In the Mount of Jehovah it shall be seen. 15And the Angel of Jehovah called to Abraham a second time out of the heavens, 16and said: By Myself I have sworn, says Jehovah, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only one; 17that in blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand which is on the seashore. 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 arose and went together to Beer-sheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba. 20And it came to pass after these things that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor: 21Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram, 22Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel. 23And Bethuel begot Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham’s brother. 24And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Thahash, and Maachah.
