Genesis 17
1 And Abram was ninety-nine years old, when Jehovah appeared to Abram, and said to him, I [am] the Almighty God: walk before my face, and be perfect.
Postquam vero nonaginta et novem annorum esse cœperat, apparuit ei Dominus, dixitque ad eum: Ego Deus omnipotens: ambula coram me, et esto perfectus.
2 And I will set my covenant between me and thee, and will very greatly multiply thee.
Ponamque fœdus meum inter me et te, et multiplicabo te vehementer nimis.
3 And Abram fell on his face; and God talked with him, saying,
Cecidit Abram pronus in faciem.
4 It is I: behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of a multitude of nations.
Dixitque ei Deus: Ego sum, et pactum meum tecum, erisque pater multarum gentium.
5 And thy name shall no more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of a multitude of nations have I made thee.
Nec ultra vocabitur nomen tuum Abram, sed appellaberis Abraham: quia patrem multarum gentium constitui te.
6 And I will make thee exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
Faciamque te crescere vehementissime, et ponam te in gentibus, regesque ex te egredientur.
7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee, and thy seed after thee in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to thee, and to thy seed after thee.
Et statuam pactum meum inter me et te, et inter semen tuum post te in generationibus suis, fœdere sempiterno: ut sim Deus tuus, et seminis tui post te.
8 And I give to thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojourning, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be a God to them.
Daboque tibi et semini tuo terram peregrinationis tuæ, omnem terram Chanaan in possessionem æternam, eroque Deus eorum.
9 And God said to Abraham, And [as for] thee, thou shalt keep my covenant, thou and thy seed after thee in their generations.
Dixit iterum Deus ad Abraham: Et tu ergo custodies pactum meum, et semen tuum post te in generationibus suis.
10 This is my covenant which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee — that every male among you be circumcised.
Hoc est pactum meum quod observabitis inter me et vos, et semen tuum post te: circumcidetur ex vobis omne masculinum:
11 And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and [that] shall be a sign of the covenant between me and you.
et circumcidetis carnem præputii vestri, ut sit in signum fœderis inter me et vos.
12 And at eight days old shall every male in your generations be circumcised among you — he who is born in the house, and he who is bought with money, any stranger who is not of thy seed.
Infans octo dierum circumcidetur in vobis, omne masculinum in generationibus vestris: tam vernaculus, quam emptitius circumcidetur, et quicumque non fuerit de stirpe vestra:
13 He who is born in thy house, and he who is bought with thy money, must be circumcised; and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
eritque pactum meum in carne vestra in fœdus æternum.
14 And the uncircumcised male who hath not been circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his peoples: he hath broken my covenant.
Masculus, cujus præputii caro circumcisa non fuerit, delebitur anima illa de populo suo: quia pactum meum irritum fecit.
15 And God said to Abraham, [As to] Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name.
Dixit quoque Deus ad Abraham: Sarai uxorem tuam non vocabis Sarai, sed Saram.
16 And I will bless her, and I will give thee a son also of her; and I will bless her, and she shall become nations: kings of peoples shall be of her.
Et benedicam ei, et ex illa dabo tibi filium cui benedicturus sum: eritque in nationes, et reges populorum orientur ex eo.
17 And Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall [a child] be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear?
Cecidit Abraham in faciem suam, et risit, dicens in corde suo: Putasne centenario nascetur filius? et Sara nonagenaria pariet?
18 And Abraham said to God, Oh that Ishmael might live before thee!
Dixitque ad Deum: Utinam Ismaël vivat coram te.
19 And God said, Sarah thy wife shall indeed bear thee a son; and thou shalt call his name Isaac; and I will establish my covenant with him, for an everlasting covenant for his seed after him.
Et ait Deus ad Abraham: Sara uxor tua pariet tibi filium, vocabisque nomen ejus Isaac, et constituam pactum meum illi in fœdus sempiternum, et semini ejus post eum.
20 And for Ishmael I have heard thee: behold, I will bless him, and will make him fruitful, and will very greatly multiply him; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.
Super Ismaël quoque exaudivi te: ecce, benedicam ei, et augebo, et multiplicabo eum valde: duodecim duces generabit, et faciam illum in gentem magnam.
21 But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to thee at this appointed time in the next year.
Pactum vero meum statuam ad Isaac, quem pariet tibi Sara tempore isto in anno altero.
22 And he left off talking with him; and God went up from Abraham.
Cumque finitus esset sermo loquentis cum eo, ascendit Deus ab Abraham.
23 And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money — every male among the people of Abraham's house — and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin on that same day, as God had said to him.
Tulit autem Abraham Ismaël filium suum, et omnes vernaculos domus suæ, universosque quos emerat, cunctos mares ex omnibus viris domus suæ: et circumcidit carnem præputii eorum statim in ipsa die, sicut præceperat ei Deus.
24 And Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Abraham nonaginta et novem erat annorum quando circumcidit carnem præputii sui.
25 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Et Ismaël filius tredecim annos impleverat tempore circumcisionis suæ.
26 In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son;
Eadem die circumcisus est Abraham et Ismaël filius ejus:
27 and all the men of his house, born in his house, or bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
et omnes viri domus illius, tam vernaculi, quam emptitii et alienigenæ pariter circumcisi sunt.
