The Latter Days - Genesis Chapter 22

Gen 22:1 And it came to pass after [0310] these things [01697], that God [0430] did tempt [05254] (8765) Abraham [085], and said [0559] (8799) unto him, Abraham [085]: and he said [0559] (8799), Behold, [here] I [am].
Gen 22:2 And he said [0559] (8799), Take now [03947] (8798) thy son [01121], thine only [03173] [son] Isaac [03327], whom thou lovest [0157] (8804), and get thee [03212] (8798) into the land [0776] of Moriah [04179]; and offer him [05927] (8685) there for a burnt offering [05930] upon one [0259] of the mountains [02022] which I will tell [0559] (8799) thee of.
Gen 22:3 And Abraham [085] rose up early [07925] (8686) in the morning [01242], and saddled [02280] (8799) his ass [02543], and took [03947] (8799) two [08147] of his young men [05288] with him, and Isaac [03327] his son [01121], and clave [01234] (8762) the wood [06086] for the burnt offering [05930], and rose up [06965] (8799), and went [03212] (8799) unto the place [04725] of which God [0430] had told [0559] (8804) him.
Gen 22:4 Then on the third [07992] day [03117] Abraham [085] lifted up [05375] (8799) his eyes [05869], and saw [07200] (8799) the place [04725] afar off [07350].
Gen 22:5 And Abraham [085] said [0559] (8799) unto his young men [05288], Abide [03427] (8798) ye here with the ass [02543]; and I and the lad [05288] will go [03212] (8799) yonder [03541] and worship [07812] (8691), and come again [07725] (8799) to you.
Gen 22:6 And Abraham [085] took [03947] (8799) the wood [06086] of the burnt offering [05930], and laid [07760] (8799) [it] upon Isaac [03327] his son [01121]; and he took [03947] (8799) the fire [0784] in his hand [03027], and a knife [03979]; and they went [03212] (8799) both [08147] of them together [03162].
Gen 22:7 And Isaac [03327] spake [0559] (8799) unto Abraham [085] his father [01], and said [0559] (8799), My father [01]: and he said [0559] (8799), Here [am] I, my son [01121]. And he said [0559] (8799), Behold the fire [0784] and the wood [06086]: but where is the lamb [07716] for a burnt offering [05930]?
Gen 22:8 And Abraham [085] said [0559] (8799), My son [01121], God [0430] will provide [07200] (8799) himself a lamb [07716] for a burnt offering [05930]: so they went [03212] (8799) both of them [08147] together [03162].
Gen 22:9 And they came [0935] (8799) to the place [04725] which God [0430] had told [0559] (8804) him of; and Abraham [085] built [01129] (8799) an altar [04196] there, and laid [06186] [00] the wood [06086] in order [06186] (8799), and bound [06123] (8799) Isaac [03327] his son [01121], and laid [07760] (8799) him on the altar [04196] upon [04605] the wood [06086].
Gen 22:10 And Abraham [085] stretched forth [07971] (8799) his hand [03027], and took [03947] (8799) the knife [03979] to slay [07819] (8800) his son [01121].
Gen 22:11 And the angel [04397] of the LORD [03068] called [07121] (8799) unto him out of heaven [08064], and said [0559] (8799), Abraham [085], Abraham [085]: and he said [0559] (8799), Here [am] I.
Gen 22:12 And he said [0559] (8799), Lay [07971] (8799) not thine hand [03027] upon [0413] the lad [05288], neither do thou [06213] (8799) any thing [03972] unto him: for now [06258] I know [03045] (8804) that thou fearest [03373] God [0430], seeing thou hast not [03808] withheld [02820] (8804) thy son [01121], thine only [03173] [son] from me.
Gen 22:13 And Abraham [085] lifted up [05375] (8799) his eyes [05869], and looked [07200] (8799), and behold behind [0310] [him] a ram [0352] caught [0270] (8737) in a thicket [05442] by his horns [07161]: and Abraham [085] went [03212] (8799) and took [03947] (8799) the ram [0352], and offered him up [05927] (8686) for a burnt offering [05930] in the stead [08478] of his son [01121].
Gen 22:14 And Abraham [085] called [07121] (8799) the name [08034] of that place [04725] Jehovahjireh [03070]: as [0834] it is said [0559] (8735) [to] this day [03117], In the mount [02022] of the LORD [03068] it shall be seen [07200] (8735).
Gen 22:15 And the angel [04397] of the LORD [03068] called [07121] (8799) unto Abraham [085] out of heaven [08064] the second time [08145],
Gen 22:16 And said [0559] (8799), By myself have I sworn [07650] (8738), saith [05002] (8803) the LORD [03068], for because [03282] [0834] thou hast done [06213] (8804) this thing [01697], and hast not [03808] withheld [02820] (8804) thy son [01121], thine only [03173] [son]:
Gen 22:17 That in blessing [01288] (8763) I will bless [01288] (8762) thee, and in multiplying [07235] (8687) I will multiply [07235] (8686) thy seed [02233] as the stars [03556] of the heaven [08064], and as the sand [02344] which is upon the sea [03220] shore [08193]; and thy seed [02233] shall possess [03423] (8799) the gate [08179] of his enemies [0341] (8802);
Gen 22:18 And in thy seed [02233] shall all the nations [01471] of the earth [0776] be blessed [01288] (8694); because [0834] [06118] thou hast obeyed [08085] (8804) my voice [06963].
Gen 22:19 So Abraham [085] returned [07725] (8799) unto his young men [05288], and they rose up [06965] (8799) and went [03212] (8799) together [03162] to Beersheba [0884]; and Abraham [085] dwelt [03427] (8799) at Beersheba [0884].
Gen 22:20 And it came to pass after [0310] these things [01697], that it was told [05046] (8714) Abraham [085], saying [0559] (8800), Behold, Milcah [04435], she hath also born [03205] (8804) children [01121] unto thy brother [0251] Nahor [05152];
Gen 22:21 Huz [05780] his firstborn [01060], and Buz [0938] his brother [0251], and Kemuel [07055] the father [01] of Aram [0758],
Gen 22:22 And Chesed [03777], and Hazo [02375], and Pildash [06394], and Jidlaph [03044], and Bethuel [01328].
Gen 22:23 And Bethuel [01328] begat [03205] (8804) Rebekah [07259]: these eight [08083] Milcah [04435] did bear [03205] (8804) to Nahor [05152], Abraham's [085] brother [0251].
Gen 22:24 And his concubine [06370], whose name [08034] was Reumah [07208], she bare [03205] (8799) also Tebah [02875], and Gaham [01514], and Thahash [08477], and Maachah [04601].
