Genesis 22:15-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ And the angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time from heaven, saying:

¹⁶ By my own self have I sworn, saith the Lord: because thou hast done this thing, and hast not spared thy only begotten son for my sake:

¹⁷ I will bless thee, and I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is by the sea shore: thy seed shall possess the gates of their enemies.

¹⁸ And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou hast obeyed my voice.
