01:022:008 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for
a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
01:022:009 And they came to the place which God had told him of; and
Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and
bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.
01:022:010 And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to
slay his son.
01:022:011 And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and
said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
01:022:012 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou
any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God,
seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.
01:022:013 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind
him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went
and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in
the stead of his son.
01:022:014 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it
is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be

01:022:015 And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven

01:022:017 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will
multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand
which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the
gate of his enemies;
01:022:018 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
because thou hast obeyed my voice.
01:022:019 So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and
went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.
01:022:020 And it came to pass after these things, that it was told
Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children
unto thy brother Nahor;
01:022:021 Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father
of Aram,
01:022:022 And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
01:022:023 And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to
Nahor, Abraham's brother.
01:022:024 And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah,
and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.
01:023:001 And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years old: these
were the years of the life of Sarah.
01:023:002 And Sarah died in Kirjatharba; the same is Hebron in the land
