Genesis 22:1-9

1

Some time laterH310H428H1697 GodH430 testedH5254 AbrahamH85 and saidH559 to himH413, “AbrahamH85!”

“Here I amH2009,” he answeredH559.

2“TakeH3947H4994 your sonH1121,” God saidH559, “your onlyH3173 son IsaacH3327, whomH834 you loveH157, and goH1980 toH413 the landH776 of MoriahH4179. Offer himH5927 thereH8033 as a burnt offeringH5930 onH5921 oneH259 of the mountainsH2022, whichH834 I will showH559 youH413.”

3So AbrahamH85 got up earlyH7925 the next morningH1242, saddledH2280 his donkeyH2543, and tookH3947 alongH854 twoH8147 of his servantsH5288 and his sonH1121 IsaacH3327. He splitH1234 the woodH6086 for a burnt offeringH5930 and set out forH6965H1980H413 the placeH4725 GodH430 had designatedH559.

4On the thirdH7992 dayH3117 AbrahamH85 looked upH5375H5869 and sawH7200 the placeH4725 in the distanceH7350. 5“StayH3427 hereH6311 withH5973 the donkeyH2543,” AbrahamH85 toldH559H413 his servantsH5288. “The boyH5288 and IH589 will goH1980 overH5704 thereH3541 to worshipH7812, and then we will returnH7725 to youH413.”

6AbrahamH85 tookH3947 the woodH6086 for the burnt offeringH5930 and placedH7760 it onH5921 his sonH1121 IsaacH3327. He himself carriedH3947H3027 the fireH784 and the sacrificial knifeH3979, and the twoH8147 of them walked onH1980 togetherH3162.

7Then IsaacH3327 saidH559 toH413 his fatherH1 AbrahamH85, “My fatherH1!”

“Here I amH2009, my sonH1121,” he repliedH559.

“The fireH784 and the woodH6086 are hereH2009,” said IsaacH559, “but whereH346 is the lambH7716 for the burnt offeringH5930?”

8AbrahamH85 answeredH559, “GodH430 Himself will provideH7200 the lambH7716 for the burnt offeringH5930, my sonH1121.” And the twoH8147 walked onH1980 togetherH3162.

9When they arrivedH935 atH413 the placeH4725 GodH430 had designatedH559, AbrahamH85 builtH1129 the altarH4196 thereH8033 and arrangedH6186 the woodH6086. He boundH6123 his sonH1121 IsaacH3327 and placedH7760 himH853 onH5921 the altarH4196, atopH4605 the woodH6086.
