You don't need an ISBN for ebooks on Amazon. Your book is automatically assigned an ASIN when you publish through Amazon.

Do a Google search for copyright templates and examples to show you what to add in that section.

Based on your post you might consider hiring a proofreader/editor before launching your book.

Do NOT pay for an ISBN,

ISBN is only MANDATORY for Print books, Ebooks are optional, but it is very smart to make a print book for your Ebook, e.g. in createspace.
This way your print books higher price is shown next to your ebook in amazon, this increases the perceived value of your book and is an important sales technique.

Solution:
Go to smashwords and publish your book there too, they wil give you an ISBN for FREE!

Caveat:
If you intend on enrolling your book in Amazon's KDP select, you may NOT publish on any other site for 3 months (hence "select")...
BUT! You can put your book on smashwords platform and get the free ISBN without publishing - problem solved.
