| Genesis 22:1 | After these things, God tempted Abraham, and said to him: Abraham, Abraham. And he answered: Here I am. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:2 | 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 a holocaust upon one of the mountains which I will show thee. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:3 | 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. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:4 | And on the third day, lifting up his eyes, he saw the place afar off. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:5 | 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. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:6 | 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, | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:7 | 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? | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:8 | And Abraham said: God will provide himself a victim for an holocaust, my son. So they went on together. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:9 | 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. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:10 | And he put forth his hand and took the sword, to sacrifice his son. | |||||||||||||||

| Genesis 22:12 | 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. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:13 | 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. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:14 | 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. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:15 | And the angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time from heaven, saying: | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:16 | 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: | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:17 | I will bless thee, and I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is by the seashore: thy seed shall possess the gates of their enemies. | |||||||||||||||
| Genesis 22:18 | And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou hast obeyed my voice. | |||||||||||||||
