Genesis 22:7-14

New International Version

⁷ 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^(A) for the burnt offering?”

⁸ Abraham answered, “God himself will provide^(B) the lamb^(C) for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two of them went on together.

⁹ When they reached the place God had told him about,^(D) Abraham built an altar^(E) there and arranged the wood^(F) on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar,^(G) on top of the wood. ¹⁰ Then he reached out his hand and took the knife^(H) to slay his son.^{(I) 11} But the angel of the Lord^(J) called out to him from heaven,^(K) “Abraham! Abraham!”^(L)

“Here I am,”^(M) he replied.

¹² “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God,^(N) because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.^(O)”

¹³ Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram^[a] caught by its horns.^(P) He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son.^{(Q) 14} So Abraham called^(R) that place The Lord^(S) Will Provide. And to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.^(T)”
