Genesis 22:12

God Tests Abraham

¹¹ And the angel of Yahweh called to him from heaven and said, "Abraham! Abraham!" And he said, "Here I [am]." ¹² And he said, "Do not stretch out your hand against the boy; do not do anything to him. For now I know that you are {one who fears} God, since you have not withheld your son, your only child, from me." ¹³ And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked. And behold, a ram was caught in the thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it as a burnt offering in place of his son.
