The Offering of Isaac
1
וַיְהִ֗י אַחַר֙ הָאֵ֔לֶּה הַדְּבָרִ֣ים וְהָ֣אֱלֹהִ֔ים נִסָּ֖ה אֶת־ אַבְרָהָ֑ם וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֵלָ֔יו אַבְרָהָ֖ם הִנֵּֽנִי׃ וַיֹּ֥אמֶר way·hî ’a·ḥar hā·’êl·leh had·də·ḇā·rîm wə·hā·’ĕ·lō·hîm nis·sāh ’eṯ- ’aḇ·rā·hām way·yō·mer ’ê·lāw ’aḇ·rā·hām hin·nê·nî way·yō·mer — WLC · 1
Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ὁ θεὸς ἐπείραζεν τὸν Ἀβραάμ· καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν Ἀβραὰμ Ἀβραάμ. ὁ δὲ εἶπεν ποὺ ἐγώ. — LXX Swete · 1

“Take… your son,” [God] said, “your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will show you.”
קַח־ נָ֠א אֶת־ בִּנְךָ֙ אֶת־ וַיֹּ֡אמֶר יְחִֽידְךָ֤ יִצְחָ֔ק אֲשֶׁר־ אָהַ֙בְתָּ֙ אֶת־ וְלֶךְ־ לְךָ֔ אֶל־ אֶ֖רֶץ הַמֹּרִיָּ֑ה וְהַעֲלֵ֤הוּ שָׁם֙ לְעֹלָ֔ה עַ֚ל אַחַ֣ד הֶֽהָרִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֖ר אֹמַ֥ר אֵלֶֽיךָ׃ qaḥ- nā ’eṯ- bin·ḵå̄ ’eṯ- way·yō·mer yə·ḥî·ḏə·ḵā yiṣ·ḥāq ’ă·šer- ’ā·haḇ·tā ’eṯ- wə·leḵ- lə·ḵā ’el- ’e·reṣ ham·mō·rî·yāh wə·ha·‘ă·lê·hū šām lə·‘ō·lāh ‘al ’a·ḥaḏ he·hā·rîm ’ă·šer ’ō·mar ’ê·le·ḵā — WLC · 2
καὶ εἶπεν Λάβε τὸν υἱόν σου τὸν ἀγαπητὸν ὅν ἠγάπησας, τὸν Ἰσαάκ, καὶ πορεύθητι εἰς τὴν γῆν τὴν ὑψηλήν, καὶ ἀνένεγκον αὐτὸν ἐκεὶ εἰς ὁλοκάρπωσιν ἐφ’ ἕλ’ τῶν ὀρέων ὦν ἄν σοι εἴπω. — LXX Swete · 2

So Abraham got up early the next morning, saddled his donkey, and took along two of his servants and his son Isaac. He split the wood for a burnt offering and set out for… the place God had designated…
אַבְרָהָ֜ם וַיַּשְׁכֵּ֨ם בַּבֹּ֗קֶר וַֽיַּחֲבֹשׁ֙ אֶת־ חֲמֹר֔וֹ וַיִּקַּ֞ח אֶת־ אִתּ֔וֹ וְאֵ֖ת שְׁנֵ֤י נְעָרָיו֙ בְּנ֑וֹ יִצְחָ֣ק וַיְבַקַּע֙ עֲצֵ֣י עֹלָ֔ה וַיָּ֣קָם וַיֵּ֔לֶךְ אֶל־ הַמָּק֖וֹם אֲשֶׁר־ הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃ אָֽמַר־ ל֥וֹ ’aḇ·rā·hām way·yaš·kêm bab·bō·qer way·ya·ḥă·ḇōš ’eṯ- ḥă·mō·rōw way·yiq·qaḥ ’eṯ- ’it·tōw wə·’êṯ šə·nê nə·‘ā·rāw bə·nōw yiṣ·ḥāq way·ḇaq·qa‘ ‘ă·ṣê ‘ō·lāh way·yā·qām way·yê·leḵ ’el- ham·mā·qō·wm ’ă·šer- hā·’ĕ·lō·hîm ’ā·mar- lōw — WLC · 3

On the third day Abraham looked up… and saw the place in the distance.

“Stay here with the donkey,” Abraham told… his servants. “The boy and I will go over there to worship, and then we will return to you.”
שְׁבוּ־ לָכֶ֥ם פֹּה֙ עִֽם־ הַחֲמ֔וֹר אַבְרָהָ֜ם וַיֹּ֨אמֶר אֶל־ נְעָרָ֗יו וְהַנַּ֔עַר וַאֲנִ֣י נֵלְכָ֖ה עַד־ כֹּ֑ה וְנִֽשְׁתַּחֲוֶ֖ה וְנָשׁ֥וּבָה אֲלֵיכֶֽם׃ šə·ḇū- lā·ḵem pōh ‘im- ha·ḥă·mō·wr ’aḇ·rā·hām way·yō·mer ’el- nə·‘ā·rāw wə·han·na·‘ar wa·’ă·nî nê·lə·ḵāh ‘aḏ- kōh wə·niš·ta·ḥă·weh wə·nā·šū·ḇāh ’ă·lê·ḵem — WLC · 5

6
Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac. He himself carried… the fire and the sacrificial knife, and the two of them walked on together.
אַבְרָהָ֜ם אֶת־ וַיִּקַּ֨ח עֲצֵ֣י הָעֹלָ֗ה וַיָּ֙שֶׂם֙ עַל־ בְּנ֔וֹ יִצְחָ֣ק וַיִּקַּ֣ח בְּיָד֔וֹ אֶת־ הָאֵ֖שׁ וְאֶת־ הַֽמַּאֲכֶ֑לֶת שְׁנֵיהֶ֖ם וַיֵּלְכ֥וּ יַחְדָּֽו׃ ’aḇ·rā·hām ’eṯ- way·yiq·qaḥ ‘ă·ṣê hā·‘ō·lāh way·yā·śem ‘al- bə·nōw yiṣ·ḥāq way·yiq·qaḥ bə·yā·ḏōw ’eṯ- hā·’êš wə·’eṯ- ham·ma·’ă·ḵe·leṯ šə·nê·hem way·yê·lə·ḵū yaḥ·dāw — WLC · 6

7
Then Isaac said to his father Abraham -, “My father!” “Here I am, my son,” he replied. “The fire and the wood are here,” said Isaac, “but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
יִצְחָ֜ק וַיֹּ֨אמֶר אֶל־ אָבִיו֙ אַבְרָהָ֤ם וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אָבִ֔י הִנֶּ֣נִּֽי בְנִ֑י וַיֹּ֖אמֶר הָאֵשׁ֙ וְהָ֣עֵצִ֔ים הִנֵּ֤ה וַיֹּ֗אמֶר וְאַיֵּ֥ה הַשֶּׂ֖ה לְעֹלָֽה׃ yiṣ·ḥāq way·yō·mer ’el- ’ā·ḇîw ’aḇ·rā·hām way·yō·mer ’ā·ḇî hin·nen·nî ḇə·nî way·yō·mer hā·’êš wə·hā·‘ê·ṣîm hin·nêh way·yō·mer wə·’ay·yêh haś·śeh lə·‘ō·lāh — WLC · 7

8
Abraham answered, “God Himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two walked on together.
אַבְרָהָ֔ם וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אֱלֹהִ֞ים לּ֥וֹ יִרְאֶה־ הַשֶּׂ֛ה לְעֹלָ֖ה בְּנִ֑י שְׁנֵיהֶ֖ם וַיֵּלְכ֥וּ יַחְדָּֽו׃ ’aḇ·rā·hām way·yō·mer ’ĕ·lō·hîm lōw yir·’eh- haś·śeh lə·‘ō·lāh bə·nî šə·nê·hem way·yê·lə·ḵū yaḥ·dāw — WLC · 8
εἶπεν δὲ Ἀβραάμ Ὁ θεὸς ὄψεται ἅμα ἦλθον ἐπὶ τὸν τόπον ὃν εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ θεός. — LXX Swete · 8
9
When they arrived at the place God had designated…, Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood. He bound his son Isaac and placed him on the altar, atop the wood.
וַיָּבֹ֗אוּ אֶֽל־ הַמָּקוֹם֮ אֲשֶׁ֣ר הָאֱלֹהִים֒ אָֽמַר־ ל֣וֹ אַבְרָהָם֙ אֶת־ וַיִּ֨בֶן הַמִּזְבֵּ֔חַ שָׁ֤ם וַֽיַּעֲרֹ֖ךְ אֶת־ הָעֵצִ֑ים וַֽיַּעֲקֹד֙ אֶת־ בְּנ֔וֹ יִצְחָ֣ק וַיָּ֤שֶׂם אֹתוֹ֙ עַל־ הַמִּזְבֵּ֔חַ מִמַּ֖עַל לָעֵצִֽים׃ way·yā·ḇō·’ū ’el- ham·mā·qō·wm ’ă·šer hā·’ĕ·lō·hîm ’ā·mar- lōw ’aḇ·rā·hām ’eṯ- way·yi·ḇen ham·miz·bê·aḥ šām way·ya·‘ă·rōḵ ’eṯ- hā·‘ê·ṣîm way·ya·‘ă·qōḏ ’eṯ- bə·nōw yiṣ·ḥāq way·yā·śem ’ō·ṯōw ‘al- ham·miz·bê·aḥ mim·ma·‘al lā·‘ê·ṣîm — WLC · 9

10
Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son.
אַבְרָהָם֙ אֶת־ וַיִּשְׁלַ֤ח יָד֔וֹ וַיִּקַּ֖ח אֶת־ הַֽמַּאֲכֶ֑לֶת לִשְׁחֹ֖ט אֶת־ בְּנֽוֹ׃ ’aḇ·rā·hām ’eṯ- way·yiš·laḥ yā·ḏōw way·yiq·qaḥ ’eṯ- ham·ma·’ă·ḵe·leṯ liš·ḥōṭ ’eṯ- bə·nōw — WLC · 10
καὶ ἐξέτεινεν Ἀβραὰμ τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ λαβεῖν τὴν μάχαιραν, σφάξαι τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ. — LXX Swete · 10
The LORD Provides the Sacrifice
11
Just then the angel of [[YHWH|the LORD]] called out to him from heaven -, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied.
מַלְאַ֤ךְ יְהוָה֙ וַיִּקְרָ֨א אֵלָ֜יו מִן־ הַשָּׁמַ֔יִם וַיֹּ֖אמֶר אַבְרָהָ֣ם׀ אַבְרָהָ֑ם הִנֵּֽנִי׃ וַיֹּ֖אמֶר mal·’aḵ Yah·weh way·yiq·rā ’ê·lāw min- haš·šā·ma·yim way·yō·mer ’aḇ·rā·hām ’aḇ·rā·hām hin·nê·nî way·yō·mer — WLC · 11
καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν ἄγγελος κυρίου ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἀβραὰμ Ἀβραάμ. ὁ δὲ εἶπεν ἰδοὺ ἐγώ. — LXX Swete · 11
12
“Do not lay a hand on the boy… or do anything to him,” said [the angel], “for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your only son from me.
אַל־ תִּשְׁלַ֤ח יָֽדְךָ֙ אֶל־ הַנַּ֔עַר וְאַל־ תַּ֥עַשׂ מְא֑וּמָּה ל֖וֹ וַיֹּ֗אמֶר כִּ֣י׀ עַתָּ֣ה יָדַ֗עְתִּי כִּֽי־ אַ֔תָּה יְרֵ֤א אֱלֹהִים֙ וְלֹ֥א חָשַׂ֛כְתָּ אֶת־ יְחִידְךָ֖ בִּנְךָ֥ אֶת־ מִמֶּֽנִּי׃ ’al- tiš·laḥ yā·ḏə·ḵā ’el- han·na·‘ar wə·’al- ta·‘aś mə·ʾūm·må̄h lōw way·yō·mer kî ‘at·tāh yā·ḏa‘·tî kî- ’at·tāh yə·rê ’ĕ·lō·hîm wə·lō ḥā·śaḵ·tā ’eṯ- yə·ḥî·ḏə·ḵā bin·ḵā ’eṯ- mim·men·nî — WLC · 12

13
Then Abraham looked up… and saw behind [him] a ram in a thicket, caught by its horns. So [he] went and took the ram and offered it as a burnt offering in place of his son.
אַבְרָהָ֜ם אֶת־ וַיִּשָּׂ֨א עֵינָ֗יו וַיַּרְא֙ וְהִנֵּה־ אַחַ֕ר אַ֔יִל בַּסְּבַ֖ךְ נֶאֱחַ֥ז בְּקַרְנָ֑יו אַבְרָהָם֙ וַיֵּ֤לֶךְ וַיִּקַּ֣ח אֶת־ הָאַ֔יִל וַיַּעֲלֵ֥הוּ לְעֹלָ֖ה תַּ֥חַת בְּנֽוֹ׃ ’aḇ·rā·hām ’eṯ- way·yiś·śā ‘ê·nāw way·yar wə·hin·nêh- ’a·ḥar ’a·yil bas·sə·ḇaḵ ne·’ĕ·ḥaz bə·qar·nāw ’aḇ·rā·hām way·yê·leḵ way·yiq·qaḥ ’eṯ- hā·’a·yil way·ya·‘ă·lê·hū lə·‘ō·lāh ta·ḥaṯ bə·nōw — WLC · 13

14
And Abraham called… that place The LORD Will Provide. So to this day it is said, “On the mountain of [[YHWH|the LORD]] it will be provided.”

15
And the angel of [[YHWH|the LORD]] called to Abraham from heaven a second time,

16
saying, “By Myself I have sworn, declares [[YHWH|the LORD]], that because you have done this… and have not withheld your only son, -

Abraham went back to his servants, and they got up and set out together for vvv Beersheba. And Abraham settled in Beersheba.

The Sons of Nahor
20
Some time later…, Abraham… was told, “Milcah has also… borne sons to your brother Nahor:
