And Abraham set seven ewe-lambs of the flock by themselves.

And Abimelech said to Abraham, What mean these seven ewe-lambs, which thou hast set by themselves?

And he said, For these seven ewe-lambs shalt thou take from my hand, that they may be a witness to me, that I have digged this well.

And Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt-offering?

And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt-offering: so they went both of them together.
