You have not refused me your own beloved son.'ġ3 Then looking up, Abraham saw a ram caught by its horns in a bush. 'Do not harm him, for now I know you fear God. 'Here I am,' he replied.ġ2 'Do not raise your hand against the boy,' the angel said. Then he bound his son and put him on the altar on top of the wood.ġ0 Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to kill his son.ġ1 But the angel of Yahweh called to him from heaven. 'Look,' he said, 'here are the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?'Ĩ Abraham replied, 'My son, God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering.' And the two of them went on together.ĩ When they arrived at the place which God had indicated to him, Abraham built an altar there, and arranged the wood. Then the two of them set out together.ħ Isaac spoke to his father Abraham. The boy and I are going over there we shall worship and then come back to you.'Ħ Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering, loaded it on Isaac, and carried in his own hands the fire and the knife. He chopped wood for the burnt offering and started on his journey to the place which God had indicated to him.Ĥ On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance.ĥ Then Abraham said to his servants, 'Stay here with the donkey. 'Here I am,' he replied.Ģ God said, 'Take your son, your only son, your beloved Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah, where you are to offer him as a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I shall point out to you.'ģ Early next morning Abraham saddled his donkey and took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac. 1 It happened some time later that God put Abraham to the test.
