[Gen 22:2 NIV] Then God said, "Take your son, your only son, whom you love--Isaac--and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you."

[Gen 22:3 NIV] Early the next morning Abraham got up and loaded his donkey. He took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac. When he had cut enough wood for the burnt offering, he set out for the place God had told him about.

[Gen 22:4 NIV] On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance.

[Gen 22:5 NIV] He said to his servants, "Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you."

[Gen 22:6 NIV] Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac, and he himself carried the fire and the knife. As the two of them went on together,

[Gen 22:7 NIV] Isaac spoke up and said to his father Abraham, "Father?" "Yes, my son?" Abraham replied. "The fire and wood are here," Isaac said, "but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?"

[Gen 22:8 NIV] Abraham answered, "God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son." And the two of them went on together.

[Gen 22:9 NIV] When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood.

[Gen 22:15 NIV] The angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second time

[Gen 22:17 NIV] I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies,

[Gen 22:18 NIV] and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me."
