Genesis 22 :: New American Standard Bible 1995 (NASB95)

The Offering of Isaac

(Heb 11:17–19 )

Gen 22:1Now it came about after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.”

Gen 22:2

Gen 22:2He said, “Take now your son, your only son, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you.”

Gen 22:3

Gen 22:3So 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 wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.

Gen 22:4

Gen 22:4On the third day Abraham raised his eyes and saw the place from a distance.

Gen 22:5

Gen 22:5Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey, and I and the lad will go over there; and we will worship and return to you.”

Gen 22:6

Gen 22:6Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So the two of them walked on together.

Gen 22:7

Gen 22:7Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, “My father!” And he said, “Here I am, my son.” And he said, “Behold, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”

Gen 22:8

Gen 22:8Abraham said, “God will [fn]provide for Himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” So the two of them walked on together.

Gen 22:9

Gen 22:9Then they came to the place of which God had told him; and Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood, and bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood.

Gen 22:10

Gen 22:10Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.

Gen 22:11

Gen 22:11But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.”

Gen 22:12

Gen 22:12He said, “Do not stretch out your hand against the lad, and do nothing to him; for now I know that you [fn]fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me.”

Gen 22:13

Gen 22:13Then Abraham raised his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him a ram caught in the thicket by his horns; and Abraham went and took the ram and offered him up for a burnt offering in the place of his son.

Gen 22:14

Gen 22:14Abraham called the name of that place [fn]The LORD Will Provide, as it is said to this day, “In the mount of the LORD it will [fn]be provided.”

Gen 22:15

Gen 22:15Then the angel of the LORD called to Abraham a second time from heaven,

Gen 22:16

Gen 22:16and said, “By Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, because you have done this thing and have not withheld your son, your only son,

Gen 22:17

Gen 22:17indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly multiply your [fn]seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your [fn]seed shall possess the gate of [fn]their enemies.

Gen 22:18

Gen 22:18“In your [fn]seed all the nations of the earth shall [fn]be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”

Gen 22:19

Gen 22:19So Abraham returned to his young men, and they arose and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham lived at Beersheba.

Gen 22:20

Gen 22:20Now it came about after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, “Behold, Milcah [fn]also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

Gen 22:21

Gen 22:21Uz his firstborn and Buz his brother and Kemuel the father of Aram

Gen 22:22

Gen 22:22and Chesed and Hazo and Pildash and Jidlaph and Bethuel.”

Gen 22:23

Gen 22:23Bethuel [fn]became the father of Rebekah; these eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham’s brother.

Gen 22:24

Gen 22:24His concubine, whose name was Reumah, [fn]also bore Tebah and Gaham and Tahash and Maacah.
