¹⁴ So Abraham called the name of that place, ^(A)“The Lord will provide”;^[a] as it is said to this day, “On the mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”^[b]

¹³ And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son.

¹⁵ And Moses ^(A)built an altar and called the name of it, The Lord Is My Banner,

⁸ Abraham said, ^(A)“God will provide for himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they went both of them together.

²⁴ Then Gideon built an altar there to the Lord and called it, ^(A)The Lord Is Peace. To this day it still stands at ^(B)Ophrah, which belongs to the Abiezrites.

¹⁹ He called the name of that place ^(A)Bethel,^[a] but the name of the city was Luz at the first.

¹³ So she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, “You are a God of seeing,”^[a] for she said, ^(A)“Truly here I have seen him who looks after me.”^{[b] 14} Therefore the well was called ^(B)Beer-lahai-roi;^[c] it lies between ^(C)Kadesh and Bered.

⁸ For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers,^[a] of ^(A)the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself. ⁹ Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us ^(B)rely not on ourselves ^(C)but on God ^(D)who raises the dead. ^10 (E)He delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. ^(F)On him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again.
