Genesis 22:15-24 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

15. And the angel of Yahweh called to Abraham a second time from heaven.

16. And he said, “I swear by myself, declares Yahweh, that because you have done this thing and have not withheld your son, your only child,

17. that I will certainly bless you and greatly multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is by the shore of the sea. And your offspring will take possession of the gate of his enemies.

18. All the nations of the earth will be blessed through your offspring, because you have listened to my voice.”

19. And Abraham returned to his servants, and they got up and went together to Beersheba. And Abraham lived in Beersheba.

20. And it happened that after these things, it was told to Abraham, “Look, Milcah has also borne children to your brother Nahor:

21. Uz his firstborn and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,

22. and Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.”

23. (Now, Bethuel fathered Rebekah). These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, the brother of Abraham.

24. And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
