Genesis 22
1 And it was after the things these and God he put to [the] test Abraham and he said to him O Abraham and he said here [am] I.
After these things, God tempted Abraham, and said to him: Abraham, Abraham. And he answered: Here I am.
2 And he said take please son your only [son] your whom you love Isaac and go for yourself to [the] land of Moriah and offer up him there to a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell to you.
He said to him: Take thy only begotten son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and go into the land of vision: and there thou shalt offer him for an holocaust upon one of the mountains which I will show thee.
3 And he rose early Abraham in the morning and he saddled donkey his and he took two of servants his with him and Isaac son his and he cut wood of burnt offering and he arose and he went to the place which he had said to him God.
So Abraham rising up in the night, saddled his ass: and took with him two young men, and Isaac his son: and when he had cut wood for the holocaust he went his way to the place which God had commanded him.
4 On the day third and he lifted up Abraham eyes his and he saw the place from a distance.
And on the third day, lifting up his eyes, he saw the place afar off.
5 And he said Abraham to servants his remain for yourselves here with the donkey and I and the lad we will go to there so we may bow down and we will return to you.
And he said to his young men: Stay you here with the ass: I and the boy will go with speed as far as yonder, and after we have worshipped, will return to you.
6 And he took Abraham [the] wood of the burnt offering and he put [it] on Isaac son his and he took in hand his the fire and the knife and they went [the] two of them together.
And he took the wood for the holocaust, and laid it upon Isaac his son: and he himself carried in his hands fire and a sword. And as they two went on together,
7 And he said Isaac to Abraham father his and he said O father my and he said here [am] I O son my and he said here! the fire and the wood and where? [is] the sheep for a burnt offering.
Isaac said to his father: My father. And he answered: What wilt thou, son? Behold, saith he, fire and wood: where is the victim for the holocaust?
8 And he said Abraham God he will see for himself the sheep for a burnt offering O son my and they went [the] two of them together.
And Abraham said: God will provide himself a victim for an holocaust, my son. So they went on together.
9 And they came to the place which he had said to him God and he built there Abraham the altar and he arranged the wood and he bound Isaac son his and he put him on the altar from above the wood.
And they came to the place which God had shown him, where he built an altar, and laid the wood in order upon it: and when he had bound Isaac his son, he laid him on the altar upon the pile of wood.
10 And he stretched out Abraham hand his and he took the knife to slaughter son his.
And he put forth his hand and took the sword, to sacrifice his son.
11 And he called to him [the] angel of Yahweh from the heavens and he said O Abraham - Abraham and he said here [am] I.
And behold an angel of the Lord from heaven called to him, saying: Abraham, Abraham. And he answered: Here I am.
12 And he said may not you stretch out hand your against the lad and may not you do to him anything for - now I know that [are one] fearing God you and not you have withheld son your only [son] your from me.
And he said to him: Lay not thy hand upon the boy, neither do thou any thing to him: now I know that thou fearest God, and hast not spared thy only begotten son for my sake.
13 And he lifted up Abraham eyes his and he saw and there! a ram behind it was caught in the thicket by horns its and he went Abraham and he took the ram and he offered up it to a burnt offering in place of son his.
Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw behind his back a ram amongst the briers sticking fast by the horns, which he took and offered for a holocaust instead of his son.
14 And he called Abraham [the] name of the place that Yahweh - he will see that it is said this day on [the] mountain of Yahweh it will be seen.
And he called the name of that place, The Lord seeth. Whereupon even to this day it is said: In the mountain the Lord will see.
15 And he called [the] angel of Yahweh to Abraham a second [time] from the heavens.
And the angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time from heaven, saying:
16 And he said by myself I swear [the] utterance of Yahweh that because that you have done the thing this and not you have withheld son your only [son] your.
By my own self have I sworn, saith the Lord: because thou hast done this thing, and hast not spared thy only begotten son for my sake:
17 For surely I will bless you and certainly I will increase offspring your like [the] stars of the heavens and like the sand which [is] on [the] shore of the sea so may take possession of offspring your [the] gate of enemies its.
I will bless thee, and I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is by the sea shore: thy seed shall possess the gates of their enemies.
18 And they will bless themselves by offspring your all [the] nations of the earth consequence that you have listened to voice my.
And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou hast obeyed my voice.
19 And he returned Abraham to servants his and they arose and they went together to Beer Sheba and he dwelt Abraham in Beer Sheba.
Abraham returned to his young men, and they went to Bersabee together, and he dwelt there.
20 And it was after the things these and it was told to Abraham saying there! she has borne Milcah also she children to Nahor brother your.
After these things, it was told Abraham that Melcha also had borne children to Nachor his brother.
21 Uz firstborn his and Buz brother his and Kemuel [the] father of Aram.
Hus the firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Camuel the father of the Syrians,
22 And Kesed and Hazo and Pildash and Jidlaph and Bethuel.
And Cased, and Azau, and Pheldas, and Jedlaph,
23 And Bethuel he fathered Rebekah eight [sons] these she bore Milcah to Nahor [the] brother of Abraham.
And Bathuel, of whom was born Rebecca: These eight did Melcha bear to Nachor Abraham’s brother.
24 And concubine his and name her [was] Reumah and she bore also she Tebah and Gaham and Tahash and Maacah.
And his concubine, named Roma, bore Tabee, and Gaham, and Tahas, and Maacha.
