## Genesis 22:17-19 in Context (Verses 14–22 KJV)
 
 [14 ](/kjv/genesis/22/14) And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it is said *to* this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.*
 
 [15 ](/kjv/genesis/22/15) ¶ And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
 
 [16 ](/kjv/genesis/22/16) And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only *son:*
 
 [17 ](/kjv/genesis/22/17) That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which *is* upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;*
 
 [18 ](/kjv/genesis/22/18) And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/genesis/22/19) So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.
 
 [20 ](/kjv/genesis/22/20) ¶ And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;
 
 [21 ](/kjv/genesis/22/21) Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
 
 [22 ](/kjv/genesis/22/22) And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
