Genesis:22:1-12
nkjv@Genesis:22:1 @ Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
nkjv@Genesis:22:2 @ Then He said, "Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."
nkjv@Genesis:22:3 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he split the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.
nkjv@Genesis:22:4 @ Then on the third day Abraham lifted his eyes and saw the place afar off.
nkjv@Genesis:22:5 @ And Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the donkey; the lad and I will go yonder and worship, and we will come back to you."
nkjv@Genesis:22:6 @ So Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife, and the two of them went together.
nkjv@Genesis:22:7 @ But Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, "My father!" And he said, "Here I am, my son." Then he said, "Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"
nkjv@Genesis:22:8 @ And Abraham said, "My son, God will provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering." So the two of them went together.
nkjv@Genesis:22:9 @ Then they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.
nkjv@Genesis:22:10 @ And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.
nkjv@Genesis:22:11 @ But the Angel of the LORD called to him from heaven and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" So he said, "Here I am."
nkjv@Genesis:22:12 @ And He said, "Do not lay your hand on the lad, or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me."
