Genesis 22:5-7

Good News Translation

⁵ Then he said to the servants, “Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go over there and worship, and then we will come back to you.”

⁶ Abraham made Isaac carry the wood for the sacrifice, and he himself carried a knife and live coals for starting the fire. As they walked along together, ⁷ Isaac spoke up, “Father!”

He answered, “Yes, my son?”

Isaac asked, “I see that you have the coals and the wood, but where is the lamb for the sacrifice?”
