Genesis 22:2-14

2And he said, Take now thy son, thine only [son], whom thou lovest, Isaac, and get thee into the land of Moriah, and there offer him up for a burnt-offering on one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

3And Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he clave the wood for the burnt-offering, and rose up and went to the place that 1God had told him of.

4On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar.

5And Abraham said to his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again 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 the knife, and they went both of them 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 sheep for a burnt-offering?

8And Abraham said, My son, 2God will provide himself with the sheep for a burnt-offering. And they went both of them together.

9And they came to the place of which 3God had told him. And Abraham built the altar there, and piled the wood; 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 slaughter 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, Stretch not out thy hand against the lad, neither do anything to him; for now I know that thou fearest 4God, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only [son], from me.

13And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold, behind was a ram caught in the 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 that place Jehovah-jireh; as it is said at the present day, On the mount of Jehovah will be provided.
