1599 Geneva Bible
17 By faith (A)Abraham offered up Isaac, when he was [a]tried, and he that had received the [b]promises, offered his only begotten son.
18 (To whom it was said, (B)In Isaac shall thy seed be called.)
19 For he considered that God was able to raise him up even from the dead: from [c]whence he received him also after [d]a sort.

New International Version
17 By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice.(A) 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.”[a](B) 19 Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead,(C) and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death.
