1 And it came to pass after these things that God tried Abraham and said to him, Abraham! Abraham! And he said, Here I am.
2 And he said, Take thy son, thy dear son whom thou hast loved; Isaak; and go to the hilly country and offer him up there for a whole homage offering on one of the hills which I will point out to thee.
3 So Abraham arose in the morning and saddled his ass and took with him two servants and his son Isaak: and having split wood for the whole homage offering he set out on the journey and came to the place which God told him
4 on the third day. Now when Abraham raised his eyes and saw the place at a distance
5 he said to his servants, Stay here with the ass, and I and the lad will go yonder, and when we have worshipped we will return to you.
6 Then Abraham took the wood of the whole homage offering and laid it on his son Isaak; and he took in his hand the fire and the knife, and they both proceeded on together.
7 And Isaak said to his father Abraham, Father. And he said, What is the matter, son? And Isaak said, Here is the fire and the wood; where is the sheep for a whole homage offering?
8 And Abraham said, My son! God will provide for himself a sheep for a whole homage offering. So they both proceeded on together
9 and came to the place which God told him. And Abraham built there the altar, and placed thereon the wood; and having bound his son Isaak he laid him on the altar above the wood.
10 And when Abraham stretched forth his hand to take hold of the knife to slay his son,
11 the angel of the Lord called to him out of heaven and said, Abraham! Abraham! And he said, Here I am.
12 And he said, Lay not thy hand on the lad, nor do any thing to him; for now I know that thou fearest God and on my account hast not spared thy darling son.
