6Abraham, Abraham, you are old and cannot hear: \
7what if you miss my small voice amongst the creaking \
8of your own grief, kill your son unknowing \
9of what he will be, and commit Israel to nothing?
10
11Abraham, you must know or hope that [God][] \
12will not allow your son to die; you must know \
13that this is a test, but then why \
14are you so bent on Isaac's destruction? \
15Look at your eyes; there is more than fear \
16there. I see in your eyes desperation, \
17a manic passion to do right by your God \
18whom you are not able to see or know.
19
20Am I too late? I [will try][] to stay \
21your old hands, the knife clenched \
22within them, intent on ending life.
23
24Will you hear my small voice amongst the creaking, \
25or will it be the chance bleating of a passing ram?
