Genesis 22:14-18 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

14. Abraham named that place Yahweh-yireh; hence people today say, “On the mountain the Lord will provide.”

15. A second time the angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven

16. and said: “I swear by my very self—oracle of the Lord—that because you acted as you did in not withholding from me your son, your only one,

17. I will bless you and make your descendants as countless as the stars of the sky and the sands of the seashore; your descendants will take possession of the gates of their enemies,

18. and in your descendants all the nations of the earth will find blessing, because you obeyed my command.”
