Genesis 22:14-24 Modern English Version (MEV)

14. Abraham called the name of that place The Lord Will Provide, as it is said to this day, “In the mount of the Lord it will be provided.”

15. Then the angel of the Lord called to Abraham out of heaven a second time,

16. and said, “By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son,

17. I will indeed bless you and I will indeed multiply your descendants as the stars of the heavens and as the sand that is on the seashore. Your descendants will possess the gate of their enemies.

18. Through your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”

19. So Abraham returned to his young men, and they arose and went together to Beersheba. Then Abraham lived at Beersheba.

20. After these things Abraham was told, “Milkah has also borne children to your brother Nahor:

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

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

23. Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. Milkah gave birth to these eight to Nahor, Abraham’s brother.

24. His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maakah.
