Genesis 22:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² He said to him: Take thy only begotten son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and go into the land of vision: and there thou shalt offer him for an holocaust upon one of the mountains which I will shew thee.

³ So Abraham rising up in the night, saddled his ass: and took with him two young men, and Isaac his son: and when he had cut wood for the holocaust he went his way to the place which God had commanded him.

⁴ And on the third day, lifting up his eyes, he saw the place afar off.
