Genesis 22:1-9
1Now it cameH1961 about afterH310 theseH428 thingsH1697, that 1GodH430 testedH5254 AbrahamH85, and saidH559 to him, “2AbrahamH85!” And he saidH559, “HereH2009 I am.” 2He saidH559, “TakeH3947 nowH4994 3your sonH1121, your onlyH3173 son, whomH834 you loveH157, IsaacH3327, and goH1980 to the landH776 of 4MoriahH4179, and offerH5927 him thereH8033 as a 5burntH5930 offeringH5930 on oneH259 of the mountainsH2022 of whichH834 I will tellH559 you.” 3So AbrahamH85 roseH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 and saddledH2280 his donkeyH2543, and tookH3947 twoH8147 of his youngH5288 menH5288 with him and IsaacH3327 his sonH1121; and he splitH1234 woodH6086 for the burntH5930 offeringH5930, and aroseH6965 and wentH1980 to the placeH4725 of whichH834 GodH430 had toldH559 him. 4On the thirdH7992 dayH3117 AbrahamH85 raisedH5375 his eyesH5869 and sawH7200 the placeH4725 from a distanceH7350. 5AbrahamH85 saidH559 to his youngH5288 menH5288, “StayH3427 hereH6311 with the donkeyH2543, and I and the ladH5288 will goH1980 overH5704H3541 thereH5704H3541; and we will worshipH7812 and returnH7725 to you.” 6AbrahamH85 tookH3947 the woodH6086 of the burntH5930 offeringH5930 and 6laidH7760 it on IsaacH3327 his sonH1121, and he tookH3947 in his handH3027 the fireH784 and the knifeH3979. So the twoH8147 of them walkedH1980 on togetherH3164. 7IsaacH3327 spokeH559 to AbrahamH85 his fatherH1 and saidH559, “My fatherH1!” And he saidH559, “HereH2009 I am, my sonH1121.” And he saidH559, “BeholdH2009, the fireH784 and the woodH6086, but whereH346 is the 7lambH7716 for the burntH5930 offeringH5930?” 8AbrahamH85 saidH559, “GodH430 will 8provideH7200 for Himself the lambH7716 for the burntH5930 offeringH5930, my sonH1121.” So the twoH8147 of them walkedH1980 on togetherH3164.
9Then they cameH935 to 9the placeH4725 of whichH834 GodH430 had toldH559 him; and AbrahamH85 builtH1129 10the altarH4196 thereH8033 and arrangedH6186 the woodH6086, and boundH6123 his sonH1121 IsaacH3327 and 11laidH7760 him on the altarH4196, on topH4605 of the woodH6086.
