Genesis 22

CAB(i) 1 And it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, Abraham, Abraham; and he said, Behold! I am here. 2 And He said, Take your son, the beloved one, whom you have loved — Isaac, and go into the high land, and offer him there for a whole burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you. 3 And Abraham rose up in the morning and saddled his donkey, and he took with him two servants, and Isaac his son, and having split wood for a whole burnt offering, he arose and departed, and came to the place of which God spoke to him, 4 on the third day; and Abraham, having lifted up his eyes, saw the place afar off. 5 And Abraham said to his servants, Sit here with the donkey, and I and the lad will proceed thus far, and having worshipped, we will return to you. 6 And Abraham took the wood of the whole burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took into his hands both the fire and the knife, and the two went together. 7 And Isaac said to Abraham his father, Father. And he said, What is it, son? And he said, Behold the fire and the wood, but where is the sheep for a whole burnt offering? 8 And Abraham said, God will provide for Himself a sheep for a whole burnt offering, my son. And both, having gone together, 9 came to the place which God spoke to him of; and there Abraham built the altar, and laid the wood on it, and having bound the feet of Isaac his son together, he laid him on the altar upon the wood. 10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand to take the knife to kill his son. 11 But the Angel of the Lord called to him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham. And he said, Behold, I am here. 12 And He said, Lay not your hand upon the child, neither do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, and for My sake you have not spared your beloved son. 13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes and beheld, and lo! A ram caught by his horns in a plant of Sabek; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a whole burnt offering in the place of Isaac his son. 14 And Abraham called the name of that place, The Lord Has Seen; that they might say today, In the mount the Lord was seen. 15 Then the Angel of the Lord called Abraham the second time out of heaven, saying, 16 I have sworn by Myself, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and on My account have not spared your beloved son, 17 surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand which is by the shore of the sea, and your seed shall inherit the cities of their enemies. 18 And in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice. 19 And Abraham returned to his servants, and they arose and went together to the Well of the Oath; and Abraham dwelt at the Well of the Oath. 20 And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah herself too has born sons to Nahor your brother, 21 Huz the firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of the Syrians, and Chesed, 22 Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, Bethuel, and Bethuel begot Rebecca; 23 these are eight sons which Milcah bore to Nahor, the brother of Abraham. 24 And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she also bore Tebah, Gaham, Thahash, and Maachah.
