And it came to pass after these words [that] the Theos tested AbraƔm, and said to him: "AbraƔm, AbraƔm". And he said: "Behold: I [am here]".
And he said: "Take your son, the beloved [one], whom you loved: IsaƔk. And go into the high land, and offer him there into a whole-burnt-yield upon [and] in [one] of the mountains, whichever I may tell you.
And AbraƔm rising up in the morning, saddled his donkey, and he took with himself two servants, and his son IsaƔk. And splitting wood into a whole-burnt-yield, and rising up to go, they came upon the place [of] which the Theos spoke to him,
on the third day. And AbraƔm looking up [with] his eyes, saw the place far off.
And AbraƔm said to his servants: "You sit there with the donkey, and I and the lad will proceed unto here. And doing obeisance, we will return to you.
And AbraƔm took the wood [for] the whole-burnt-yield, and placed it upon his son IsaƔk. And he took with [his] hands the fire and the knife. And the two went together.
And IsaƔk said to his father AbraƔm: "Father". And he said: "What is it, child?" And he said: "Behold: the fire and the wood, [but] where is the sheep, the [one] into [the] whole-burnt-yield?"
And AbraƔm said: "The Theos will see to himself a sheep for a whole-burnt-yield, [my] child." And both going together
came upon the place which the Theos spoke [of] to him. And there AbraƔm built the altar. And he placed the wood upon [it]. And binding his son IsaƔk hand and foot, he placed him upon the altar above the wood.
And AbraƔm stretched his hand to take the knife to slay his son.
And [a] messenger of [the] lord called him from out of the heaven, and said: "AbraƔm, AbraƔm". And he said: "Behold: I [am here]."
And he said: "Put not your hand upon the lad, nor should you do [anything] to him by any means, for now I know that you fear the Theos, and spared not your beloved son on account of me."
And AbraƔm looking up [with] his eyes saw. And behold: one ram being held in a plant of Sabek by his horns. And AbraƔm went and took the ram, and offered it into a whole-burnt-yield instead of his son IsaƔk.
And AbraƔm called the name of that place: [the] lord beheld, that they may say today: "[The] lord was seen in the mountain."
And [the] messenger of [the] lord called AbraƔm a second [time] from out of heaven, saying:
"Against myself I swear by an oath, says [the] lord, because you did this saying, and you did not spare your beloved son on account of me.
Assuredly in blessing, I will bless you. And in multiplying, I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand, the [one] by the lip of the sea. And your seed will inherit the cities of [your] opposite.
And all the nations of the earth will be blessed in your seed, because you hearkened to my voice."
And AbraƔm returned to his servants. And rising up the went together to the well of the oath. And AbraƔm dwelt upon the well of the oath.
And it came to pass after these words, that it was announced to AbraƔm, saying: "Behold: also Melcha herself has born sons to your brother Nachor:
the first-born Ouz, and his brother Baux, and KamouƩl, [the] father of [the] Syron,
and Chazad, and Azav, and Phaldes, and Ieldaph, and BathouƩl."
And BathouƩl begot Rebekka. These [are the] eight sons whom Melcha bore to Nachor, the brother of AbraƔm.
And his concubine, whose name [was] Rheuma, also bore herself: Tabek, and TaƔm, and Tochos, and Mocha.
