And it came to pass after these things,
that YHVH (YEHOVAH) tested Abraham.
YHVH (YEHOVAH) said, Abraham,
and Abraham said, Behold, here I am.
And YHVH (YEHOVAH) said, Take now your son, thine only son Isaac, whom you loves, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and cut the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which YHVH (YEHOVAH) had told him.
Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off. And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you. And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.
And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering? And Abraham said, My son, YHVH (YEHOVAH) will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
And they came to the place which YHVH (YEHOVAH) 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. And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son. And the angel of the king yhvh (yehovah) called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and Abraham said, Here am I. And he (YHVH' angel) said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that you fearest YHVH (YEHOVAH), seeing YOU has not withheld YOUR son, thine only son from me.
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. And Abraham called the name of that place YHVH (YEHOVAH)-jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the KING YHVH it shall be seen.
And the angel of the KING YHVH (YEHOVAH) called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time, and said, By myself have I sworn, saith the YHVH (YEHOVAH), for because you has done this thing, and has not withheld your son, thine only son: that in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and your seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because you has obeyed my voice.
