THE SACRIFICE OF ISAAC

22 After these things God tested Abrahamm and said to him, “Abraham!”

“Here I am,” he answered.

2 “Take your son,” he said, “your only son Isaac, whom you love,n go to the land of Moriah,o and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains I will tell you about.”

3 So Abraham got up early in the morning,p saddled his donkey, and took with him two of his young men and his son Isaac. He split wood for a burnt offering and set out to go to the place God had told him about.
