13 And the angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham! Abraham! And Abraham said, Here am I.
14 And the angel said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou anything unto him;
15 For now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only Isaac from me.
16 And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind a thicket, there was a ram caught in it by his horns.
17 And Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering, in the stead of his son.
18 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh; as it is said unto this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen.
19 And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time, and said,
20 Thus saith the Lord, I have sworn by myself, that because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only Isaac from me;
21 That in blessing I will bless thee; and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand which is upon the seashore.
22 And thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.
23 So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went to Beer-sheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.
