Genesis 22:4-10

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, 1God 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 2God 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.
