7 U-Isaka wathi ku-Abrahama uyise: “Baba.”Wathi yena: “Ngilapha, ndodana yami.”Wayesethi: “Bheka, nanku umlilo nezinkuni, kepha iphi imvu yomnikelo ezakushiswa na?”
8 U-Abrahama wathi: “UNkulunkulu uzakuzibonela imvu yomnikelo ezakushiswa, ndodana yami,” bahamba bobabili kanyekanye.
9 Bafika endaweni uNkulunkulu abemtshele yona; u-Abrahama wakha khona i-altare, walungisa izinkuni, wambopha u-Isaka indodana yakhe, wambeka e-altare phezu kwezinkuni.
10 U-Abrahama waselula isandla sakhe, wathatha umese ukuba ahlabe indodana yakhe.
11 Kwase kumemeza kuye ingelosi kaJehova isezulwini, ithi: “Abrahama, Abrahama!”Yena wathi: “Ngilapha.”
12 Yayisithi: “Ungabeki isandla sakho kumfana, ungenzi lutho kuye, ngokuba ngiyazi manje ukuthi uyamesaba uNkulunkulu, lokhu ungagodlanga kimi nandodana eyodwa yakho.”
13 U-Abrahama waphakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona; bheka, ngemuva yinqama, ibhajiwe esihlahleni ngezimpondo zayo; u-Abrahama waya wayithatha inqama, wanikela ngayo umnikelo wokushiswa esikhundleni sendodana yakhe.
