17 Deur die geloof het Abraham, toe hy op die proef gestel is, Isak geoffer; ja, hy wat die beloftes ontvang het, het sy eniggeborene geoffer,

18 aan wie gesê is: In Isak sal jou nageslag genoem word -- want hy het gereken dat God mag het om selfs uit die dode op te wek;

19 daaruit het hy hom ook, om so te spreek, terug ontvang.

17 By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his only born son, 18 to whom it was said, "Your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac," 19 concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead.
