Genesis 22:9-18 9 When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. 10 Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.

11 But the angel of the Lordcalled out to him fromheaven, "Abraham!Abraham!" "Here I am," hereplied. 12 "Do not lay ahand on the boy," he said."Do not do anything to him.Now I know that you fearGod, because you have notwithheld from me your son,your only son.“

13 Abraham looked up andthere in a thicket he saw aram caught by its horns. Hewent over and took the ramand sacrificed it as a burntoffering instead of his son. 14So Abraham called that placeThe Lord Will Provide. And tothis day it is said, "On themountain of the Lord it willbe provided.“
