Book 01 : GENESIS - Chapter 022
022:001
And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou
lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him
there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I
will tell thee of
022:002
And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass,
and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and
clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went
unto the place of which God had told him
022:003
Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the
place afar off
022:004
And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the
ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come
again to you
022:005
And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it
upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a
knife; and they went both of them together
022:006
And Isaac spake unto 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
022:007
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for
a burnt offering: so they went both of them together
022:008
And they came to the place which God had told him of; and
Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and
bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood
022:009
And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to
slay his son
022:010
And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and
said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I
022:011
And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou
any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God,
seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me
022:012
And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind
him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went
and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in
the stead of his son
022:013
And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it
is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be
seen
022:014
And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven
the second time
022:015
And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because
thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son,
thine only son
022:016
That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will
multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand
which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the
gate of his enemies
022:017
And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
because thou hast obeyed my voice
022:018
So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and
went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba
022:019
And it came to pass after these things, that it was told
Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children
unto thy brother Nahor
022:020
Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father
of Aram
022:021
And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel
022:022
And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to
Nahor, Abraham's brother
022:023
And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah,
and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah
