Genesis 22:17 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 Some time later, God tested Abraham's faith. "Abraham!" God called."Yes," he replied. "Here I am."
2 "Take your son, your only son-- yes, Isaac, whom you love so much-- and go to the land of Moriah. Go and sacrifice him as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will show you."
3 The next morning Abraham got up early. He saddled his donkey and took two of his servants with him, along with his son, Isaac. Then he chopped wood for a fire for a burnt offering and set out for the place God had told him about.
4 On the third day of their journey, Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance.
5 "Stay here with the donkey," Abraham told the servants. "The boy and I will travel a little farther. We will worship there, and then we will come right back."
6 So Abraham placed the wood for the burnt offering on Isaac's shoulders, while he himself carried the fire and the knife. As the two of them walked on together,
7 Isaac turned to Abraham and said, "Father?" "Yes, my son?" Abraham replied."We have the fire and the wood," the boy said, "but where is the sheep for the burnt offering?"
8 "God will provide a sheep for the burnt offering, my son," Abraham answered. And they both walked on together.
9 When they arrived at the place where God had told him to go, Abraham built an altar and arranged the wood on it. Then he tied his son, Isaac, and laid him on the altar on top of the wood.
10 And Abraham picked up the knife to kill his son as a sacrifice.
11 At that moment the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven, "Abraham! Abraham!" "Yes," Abraham replied. "Here I am!"
12 "Don't lay a hand on the boy!" the angel said. "Do not hurt him in any way, for now I know that you truly fear God. You have not withheld from me even your son, your only son."
13 Then Abraham looked up and saw a ram caught by its horns in a thicket. So he took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering in place of his son.
14 Abraham named the place Yahweh-Yireh (which means "the LORD will provide"). To this day, people still use that name as a proverb: "On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided."
15 Then the angel of the LORD called again to Abraham from heaven.
16 "This is what the LORD says: Because you have obeyed me and have not withheld even your son, your only son, I swear by my own name that
17 I will certainly bless you. I will multiply your descendants beyond number, like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will conquer the cities of their enemies.
18 And through your descendants all the nations of the earth will be blessed-- all because you have obeyed me."
19 Then they returned to the servants and traveled back to Beersheba, where Abraham continued to live.
20 Soon after this, Abraham heard that Milcah, his brother Nahor's wife, had borne Nahor eight sons.
21 The oldest was named Uz, the next oldest was Buz, followed by Kemuel (the ancestor of the Arameans),
22 Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
23 (Bethuel became the father of Rebekah.) In addition to these eight sons from Milcah,
24 Nahor had four other children from his concubine Reumah. Their names were Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
1 And it came to pass H1961 after H310 these H428 things, H1697 that God H430 did tempt H5254 H853 Abraham, H85 and said H559 unto H413 him, Abraham: H85 and he said, H559 Behold, H2009 here I am .
2 And he said, H559 Take H3947 now H4994 H853 thy son, H1121 H853 thine only H3173 son H853 Isaac, H3327 whom H834 thou lovest, H157 and get H1980 thee into H413 the land H776 of Moriah; H4179 and offer H5927 him there H8033 for a burnt offering H5930 upon H5921 one H259 of the mountains H2022 which H834 I will tell H559 thee of. H413
3 And Abraham H85 rose up early H7925 in the morning, H1242 and saddled H2280 H853 his ass, H2543 and took H3947 H853 two H8147 of his young men H5288 with H854 him , and Isaac H3327 his son, H1121 and cleaved H1234 the wood H6086 for the burnt offering, H5930 and rose up, H6965 and went H1980 unto H413 the place H4725 of which H834 God H430 had told H559 him.
4 Then on the third H7992 day H3117 Abraham H85 lifted up H5375 H853 his eyes, H5869 and saw H7200 H853 the place H4725 afar off H4480 H7350 .
5 And Abraham H85 said H559 unto H413 his young men, H5288 Abide H3427 ye here H6311 with H5973 the ass; H2543 and I H589 and the lad H5288 will go H1980 yonder H5704 H3541 and worship, H7812 and come again H7725 to H413 you.
6 And Abraham H85 took H3947 H853 the wood H6086 of the burnt offering, H5930 and laid H7760 it upon H5921 Isaac H3327 his son; H1121 and he took H3947 H853 the fire H784 in his hand, H3027 and a knife; H3979 and they went H1980 both H8147 of them together. H3162
7 And Isaac H3327 spoke H559 unto H413 Abraham H85 his father, H1 and said, H559 My father: H1 and he said, H559 Here H2009 am I , my son. H1121 And he said, H559 Behold H2009 the fire H784 and the wood: H6086 but where H346 is the lamb H7716 for a burnt offering H5930 ?
8 And Abraham H85 said, H559 My son, H1121 God H430 will provide H7200 himself a lamb H7716 for a burnt offering: H5930 so they went H1980 both H8147 of them together. H3162
9 And they came H935 to H413 the place H4725 which H834 God H430 had told H559 him of ; and Abraham H85 built H1129 H853 an altar H4196 there, H8033 and laid the wood in order H6186 H853 H6086 , and bound H6123 H853 Isaac H3327 his son, H1121 and laid H7760 him on H5921 the altar H4196 upon H4480 H4605 the wood. H6086
10 And Abraham H85 stretched forth H7971 H853 his hand, H3027 and took H3947 H853 the knife H3979 to slay H7819 H853 his son. H1121
11 And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 called H7121 unto H413 him out of H4480 heaven, H8064 and said, H559 Abraham, H85 Abraham: H85 and he said, H559 Here H2009 am I.
12 And he said, H559 Lay H7971 not H408 thine hand H3027 upon H413 the lad, H5288 neither H408 do H6213 thou any thing H3972 unto him: for H3588 now H6258 I know H3045 that H3588 thou H859 fearest H3373 God, H430 seeing thou hast not H3808 withheld H2820 H853 thy son, H1121 H853 thine only H3173 son from H4480 me.
13 And Abraham H85 lifted up H5375 H853 his eyes, H5869 and looked, H7200 and behold H2009 behind H310 him a ram H352 caught H270 in a thicket H5442 by his horns: H7161 and Abraham H85 went H1980 and took H3947 H853 the ram, H352 and offered him up H5927 for a burnt offering H5930 in the stead of H8478 his son. H1121
14 And Abraham H85 called H7121 the name H8034 of that H1931 place H4725 Jehovah- H3070 jireh: as H834 it is said H559 to this day, H3117 In the mount H2022 of the LORD H3068 it shall be seen. H7200
15 And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 called H7121 unto H413 Abraham H85 out of H4480 heaven H8064 the second time, H8145
16 And said, H559 By myself have I sworn, H7650 saith H5002 the LORD, H3068 for H3588 because H3282 H834 thou hast done H6213 H853 this H2088 thing, H1697 and hast not H3808 withheld H2820 H853 thy son, H1121 H853 thine only H3173 son :
17 That H3588 in blessing H1288 I will bless H1288 thee , and in multiplying H7235 I will multiply H7235 H853 thy seed H2233 as the stars H3556 of the heaven, H8064 and as the sand H2344 which H834 is upon H5921 the sea H3220 shore; H8193 and thy seed H2233 shall possess H3423 H853 the gate H8179 of his enemies; H341
18 And in thy seed H2233 shall all H3605 the nations H1471 of the earth H776 be blessed; H1288 because H6118 H834 thou hast obeyed H8085 my voice. H6963
19 So Abraham H85 returned H7725 unto H413 his young men, H5288 and they rose up H6965 and went H1980 together H3162 to H413 Beer- H884 sheba ; and Abraham H85 dwelt H3427 at Beer- H884 sheba.
20 And it came to pass H1961 after H310 these H428 things, H1697 that it was told H5046 Abraham, H85 saying, H559 Behold, H2009 Milcah, H4435 she H1931 hath also H1571 born H3205 children H1121 unto thy brother H251 Nahor; H5152
21 H853 Huz H5780 his firstborn, H1060 and Buz H938 his brother, H251 and Kemuel H7055 the father H1 of Aram, H758
22 And Chesed, H3777 and Hazo, H2375 and Pildash, H6394 and Jidlaph, H3044 and Bethuel. H1328
23 And Bethuel H1328 begot H3205 H853 Rebekah: H7259 these H428 eight H8083 Milcah H4435 did bear H3205 to Nahor, H5152 Abraham's H85 brother. H251
24 And his concubine, H6370 whose name H8034 was Reumah, H7208 she H1931 bore H3205 also H1571 H853 Tebah, H2875 and Gaham, H1514 and Thahash, H8477 and Maachah. H4601
