And Chesed and Hazo and Pildash and Jidlaph and Bethuel.

Then Isaac said to Abraham, My father; and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, We have wood and fire here, but where is the lamb for the burned offering?

And Abraham put the wood for the burned offering on his son's back, and he himself took the fire and the knife in his hand, and the two of them went on together.

And they came to the place of which God had given him knowledge; and there Abraham made the altar and put the wood in place on it, and having made tight the bands round Isaac his son, he put him on the wood on the altar.

And stretching out his hand, Abraham took the knife to put his son to death.

And Abraham said, God himself will give the lamb for the burned offering: so they went on together.

But the voice of the angel of the Lord came from heaven, saying, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.

And Sarah said, God has given me cause for laughing, and everyone who has news of it will be laughing with me.

And he said to Sarah, See, I have given to your brother a thousand bits of silver so that your wrong may be put right; now your honour is clear in the eyes of all.

And Abraham went on living in the land of the Philistines as in a strange country.

And when God sent me wandering from my father's house, I said to her, Let this be the sign of your love for me; wherever we go, say of me, He is my brother.

So they made an agreement at Beer-sheba, and Abimelech and Phicol, the captain of his army, went back to the land of the Philistines.

And early in the morning Abraham got up, and gave Hagar some bread and a water-skin, and put the boy on her back, and sent her away: and she went, wandering in the waste land of Beer-sheba.

But God said, Let it not be a grief to you because of the boy and Hagar his mother; give ear to whatever Sarah says to you, because it is from Isaac that your seed will take its name.

And God said to him in the dream, I see that you have done this with an upright heart, and I have kept you from sinning against me: for this reason I did not let you come near her.

And when the child was old enough to be taken from the breast, Abraham made a great feast.

Then Abraham made prayer to God, and God made Abimelech well again, and his wife and his women-servants, so that they had children.

Now at that time, Abimelech and Phicol, the captain of his army, said to Abraham, I see that God is with you in all you do.

Come, take your child in your arms, for I will make of him a great nation.

And while he was in the waste land of Paran, his mother got him a wife from the land of Egypt.

Then God made her eyes open, and she saw a water-spring, and she got water in the skin and gave the boy a drink.

Then he said to his young men, Keep here with the ass; and I and the boy will go on and give worship and come back again to you.

Now after these things, God put Abraham to the test, and said to him, Abraham; and he said, Here am I.

And he said to him, Take your son, your dearly loved only son Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah and give him as a burned offering on one of the mountains of which I will give you knowledge.

And I will make a nation of the son of your servant-woman, because he is your seed.

And Abraham got up early in the morning, and made ready his ass, and took with him two of his young men and Isaac, his son, and after the wood for the burned offering had been cut, he went on his way to the place of which God had given him word.

And when his son Isaac was eight days old, Abraham made him undergo circumcision, as God had said to him.

So she said to Abraham, Send away that woman and her son: for the son of that woman is not to have a part in the heritage with my son Isaac.
