17 Pela fé Abraão, sendo provado, ofereceu Isaque; sim, ia oferecendo o seu unigênito aquele que recebera as promessas,

18 e a quem se havia dito: Em Isaque será chamada a tua descendência,

19 julgando que Deus era poderoso para até dos mortos o ressuscitar; e daí também em figura o recobrou.

17 By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son,

18 even though God had said to him, "It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned." [3]

19 Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead, and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death.
