Genesis 22:1-9

1And it came to pass afterH310 these thingsH1697, that GodH430 did proveH5254 AbrahamH85, and saidH559 unto him, AbrahamH85: and he saidH559, Behold, here I am.1 2And he saidH559, Take nowH3947 thy sonH1121, thine onlyH3173 son IsaacH3327, whom thou lovestH157, and get theeH3212 into the landH776 of MoriahH4179; and offer himH5927 there for a burnt offeringH5930 upon oneH259 of the mountainsH2022 which I will tellH559 thee of.

3And AbrahamH85 rose up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and saddledH2280 his donkeyH2543, and tookH3947 twoH8147 of his young menH5288 with him, and IsaacH3327 his sonH1121, and claveH1234 the woodH6086 for the burnt offeringH5930, and rose upH6965, and wentH3212 unto the placeH4725 of which GodH430 had toldH559 him. 4Then on the thirdH7992 dayH3117 AbrahamH85 lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869, and sawH7200 the placeH4725 afar offH7350. 5And AbrahamH85 saidH559 unto his young menH5288, AbideH3427 ye here with the donkeyH2543; and I and the ladH5288 will goH3212 yonderH3541 and worshipH7812, and come againH7725 to you. 6And AbrahamH85 tookH3947 the woodH6086 of the burnt offeringH5930, and laidH7760 it upon IsaacH3327 his sonH1121; and he tookH3947 the fireH784 in his handH3027, and a knifeH3979; and they wentH3212 bothH8147 of them togetherH3162. 7And IsaacH3327 spakeH559 unto AbrahamH85 his fatherH1, and saidH559, My fatherH1: and he saidH559, Here am I, my sonH1121. And he saidH559, Behold the fireH784 and the woodH6086: but where is the lambH7716 for a burnt offeringH5930?2 8And AbrahamH85 saidH559, My sonH1121, GodH430 will provideH7200 himself a lambH7716 for a burnt offeringH5930: so they wentH3212 both of themH8147 togetherH3162. 9And they cameH935 to the placeH4725 which GodH430 had toldH559 him of; and AbrahamH85 builtH1129 an altarH4196 there, and laidH6186 the woodH6086 in orderH6186, and boundH6123 IsaacH3327 his sonH1121, and laidH7760 him on the altarH4196 uponH4605 the woodH6086.
