And
it
cometh
to
pass
after
these
things
that
God hath
tried
Abraham ,
and saith
unto
him, `
Abraham ;'
and
he
saith,
`
Here `am'
I. '
Some
time
later
God tested
Abraham and said
to
him, “
Abraham !”
“
Here I am,”
he
answered
.
And
He
saith,
`
Take ,
I
pray
thee,
thy
son, thine
only one
, whom thou
hast
loved,
even
Isaac
, and go for
thyself
unto
the land of Moriah ,
and
cause
him to
ascend
there for
a burnt -
offering on one of the mountains of
which I speak
unto
thee
. '
“
Take your
son, ”
God
said,
“your
only son
Isaac
, whom you
love
, and go to
the land of Moriah .
Offer
him there as
a burnt offering on one of the mountains ,
which I will
show
you
. ”
And
Abraham riseth
early in
the morning, and
saddleth
his ass
, and taketh
two of his young
men
with
him,
and Isaac
his son ,
and
he cleaveth
the wood of
the
burnt -
offering ,
and riseth
and
goeth
unto
the place of
which
God hath
spoken
to
him
.
So
Abraham got
up
early the next
morning, saddled
his donkey
, and took
along
two of his servants
and his son Isaac.
He split
the wood for
a
burnt offering and set
out
for
the place God had
designated
.
On the third day --
Abraham lifteth
up his
eyes,
and seeth
the place from
afar;
On the third day Abraham looked
up and saw
the place in
the
distance.
and
Abraham
saith
unto
his
young
men,
`Remain
by
yourselves
here with the ass
, and I and
the
youth
go yonder
and
worship, and turn
back
unto
you. '
“Stay
here with the donkey
, ”
Abraham
told
his
servants.
“The
boy
and I will
go over
there
to
worship, and then
we
will
return
to
you. ”
And
Abraham taketh
the wood of
the burnt -
offering ,
and placeth
on Isaac
his son ,
and
he taketh
in
his
hand
the fire ,
and the knife ;
and they
go
on
both
of them together.
Abraham took
the wood for
the burnt offering and placed
it
on his son Isaac.
He himself
carried
the fire and the sacrificial
knife ,
and the
two
of them walked
on
together.
And
Isaac speaketh
unto
Abraham
his father ,
and
saith
, `
My father ,'
and
he
saith,
`
Here `am'
I, my son .'
And
he
saith
, `Lo,
the fire and the wood, and
where the lamb for a
burnt -
offering? '
Then
Isaac said
to
his father Abraham
, “
My father !”
“
Here I am
, my son, ”
he
replied.
“
The fire and the wood are
here
, ”
said
Isaac,
“but
where is
the lamb for the
burnt offering? ”
and
Abraham saith
, `
God doth
provide
for
Himself the lamb for a
burnt -
offering, my son ;'
and they
go
on both
of
them
together.
Abraham answered
, “
God Himself will
provide
the lamb for the
burnt offering, my son .”
And the
two
walked
on together.
And
they come
in
unto
the place of
which
God hath
spoken
to
him
, and
there
Abraham buildeth
the altar ,
and arrangeth
the wood ,
and
bindeth
Isaac
his son ,
and placeth
him upon
the altar above
the wood ;
When
they arrived
at
the place God had
designated
, Abraham built
the altar there
and arranged
the wood .
He
bound
his son Isaac
and placed
him on
the altar ,
atop
the wood .
and
Abraham putteth
forth
his hand ,
and taketh
the knife --
to slaughter his son.
Then
Abraham reached
out
his hand and took
the knife to slaughter his son.
And
the messenger
of Jehovah
calleth
unto
him from the
heavens,
and
saith
, `
Abraham, Abraham ;'
and
he
saith,
`
Here `am'
I ;'
Just
then
the angel
of the
LORD
called
out
to
him from heaven
, “
Abraham, Abraham !”
“
Here I am,”
he
replied.
and
He
saith,
`Put
not forth
thine
hand unto
the youth,
nor
do anything to him, for now I have
known
that thou
art
fearing
God, and
hast
not withheld thy
son,
thine
only one,
from Me. '
“Do
not lay
a
hand on
the boy
or
do anything to him, ”
said
the
angel,
“
for now I know
that you
fear
God, since
you
have
not withheld your
only son
from me. ”
And
Abraham lifteth
up his
eyes,
and looketh,
and
lo,
a ram behind,
seized
in a thicket by its horns ;
and
Abraham
goeth,
and taketh
the ram ,
and causeth
it to
ascend
for
a burnt -
offering instead
of his son ;
Then
Abraham looked
up and saw
behind
him
a ram in a thicket ,
caught
by its horns .
So
he
went
and took
the ram and offered
it as
a burnt offering in
place
of his son .
and Abraham calleth
the
name
of
that place `Jehovah-Jireh,'
because
it is said this
day
in
the
mount
, `Jehovah
doth
provide
. '
And Abraham called
that place The
LORD
Will
Provide.
So
to
this
day
it is said, “On
the
mountain
of
the
LORD
it
will
be
provided
. ”
And the messenger
of Jehovah
calleth
unto
Abraham a second time from
the
heavens
,
And the angel
of the
LORD
called
to
Abraham from
heaven
a second time,
and
saith
, `
By Myself I have sworn --
the affirmation
of
Jehovah
--
that because thou
hast
done this thing,
and hast
not withheld thy
son, thine
only
one
--
saying
, “
By Myself I have sworn ,
declares
the LORD,
that because you
have
done this and have
not withheld your
only
son,
that
blessing
I bless thee
, and multiplying
I multiply thy
seed
as
stars of
the heavens,
and as
sand which
`is'
on the sea-shore;
and
thy
seed
doth
possess the gate
of his
enemies ;
I will
surely
bless you
, and I will
multiply your
descendants
like
the
stars in
the sky
and the
sand on the seashore.
Your
descendants
will
possess the gates
of their
enemies .
and blessed
themselves
in
thy
seed
have
all nations of the earth, because that
thou
hast
hearkened
to
My voice. '
And through
your
offspring
all nations of the earth will
be
blessed
, because you
have
obeyed
My voice. ”
And
Abraham turneth
back unto
his young
men
, and they rise
and go
together unto
Beer-Sheba;
and Abraham dwelleth
in Beer-Sheba
.
Abraham went
back to
his servants
, and they got
up
and set
out
together for
Beersheba.
And Abraham settled
in Beersheba
.
And
it
cometh
to
pass
after
these
things
that
it
is
declared
to
Abraham,
saying
, `Lo
, Milcah hath
borne ,
even
she,
sons to Nahor
thy
brother:
Some
time
later
, Abraham
was
told
, “
Milcah has
also
borne sons to your
brother Nahor
:
Huz
his
first-born
, and
Buz
his brother ;
and
Kemuel father of Aram,
Uz
the
firstborn
, his brother Buz,
Kemuel (the
father of Aram )
,
and
Chesed, and
Hazo, and
Pildash, and
Jidlaph, and Bethuel ;
Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel .”
and Bethuel hath
begotten
Rebekah ;'
these eight hath
Milcah
borne
to Nahor,
Abraham's
brother ;
And Bethuel became
the
father
of
Rebekah .
Milcah
bore
these eight sons
to Abraham’s
brother Nahor.
and
his
concubine, whose name `is'
Reumah, she
also
hath
borne
Tebah, and
Gaham, and
Tahash, and Maachah
.
Moreover,
Nahor’s
concubine, whose name was
Reumah, bore
Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah
.
