    3Early in the morning Abraham got up and saddled his donkey. He took two of his young servants with him, along with his son Isaac. When he had cut the wood for the burnt offering, he started out for the place God had spoken to him about.

    7Isaac said to his father Abraham,“My father?”“What is it, my son?” he replied.“Here is the fire and the wood,” Isaac said,“but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”

    8“God will provide for himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son,” Abraham replied. The two of them continued on together.

    9When they came to the place God had told him about, Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood on it. Next he tied up his son Isaac and placed him on the altar on top of the wood.

    10Then Abraham reached out his hand, took the knife, and prepared to slaughter his son.

    11But the LORD’s angel called to him from heaven,“Abraham! Abraham!”“Here I am!” he answered.

    12“Do not harm the boy!” the angel said.“Do not do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God because you did not withhold your son, your only son, from me.”
