Genesis 17
1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, Yahweh appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless.
Abram tenía 99 años cuando Yavé se le apareció, y le dijo: Yo soy ʼEL-Shadday. Anda delante de Mí y sé perfecto.
2 I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”
Estableceré mi Pacto entre Yo y tú, y te multiplicaré muchísimo.
3 Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying,
Entonces Abram se postró sobre su rostro. ʼElohim le habló:
4 “As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations.
Mira, establezco mi Pacto contigo: Serás padre de una multitud de pueblos.
5 Your name will no more be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.
Tu nombre ya no será Abram, sino Abraham, porque te constituí padre de una multitud de pueblos.
6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you. Kings will come out of you.
Te haré muy fecundo. Haré naciones de ti, y de ti saldrán reyes.
7 I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your offspring after you.
Yo establezco mi Pacto entre Yo y tú, y después de ti con tu descendencia en sus generaciones como alianza perpetua, para ser el ʼElohim tuyo y a tu descendencia.
8 I will give to you, and to your offspring after you, the land where you are traveling, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. I will be their God.”
Te daré por posesión perpetua la tierra de tus peregrinaciones, toda la tierra de Canaán, y a tu descendencia. Y seré su ʼElohim.
9 God said to Abraham, “As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations.
Además ʼElohim dijo a Abraham: Tú guardarás mi Pacto, tú y tu descendencia en sus generaciones.
10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your offspring after you. Every male among you shall be circumcised.
Éste es mi Pacto entre Yo y ustedes, el cual guardarán tú y tu descendencia: Que todo varón entre ustedes sea circuncidado.
11 You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you.
Circuncidarán sus prepucios, y esta será la señal del Pacto entre Yo y ustedes.
12 He who is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every male throughout your generations, he who is born in the house, or bought with money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring.
Todo varón entre ustedes en todas sus generaciones será circuncidado a los ocho días de nacido, tanto el nacido en casa, como el comprado con dinero a cualquier extranjero que no sea de tu descendencia.
13 He who is born in your house, and he who is bought with your money, must be circumcised. My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
Ciertamente será circuncidado el nacido en tu casa y el comprado con tu dinero. Mi Pacto estará en su cuerpo como Pacto eterno.
14 The uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people. He has broken my covenant.”
Pero el varón incircunciso, que no haya circuncidado su prepucio, será cortado de su pueblo. Quebrantó mi Pacto.
15 God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.
También ʼElohim dijo a Abraham: A tu esposa Saray no la llamarás Saray, sino su nombre será Sara.
16 I will bless her, and moreover I will give you a son by her. Yes, I will bless her, and she will be a mother of nations. Kings of peoples will come from her.”
La bendeciré y también te daré un hijo por medio de ella. Sí, la bendeciré. Ella [será madre de] naciones. Reyes de pueblos procederán de ella.
17 Then Abraham fell on his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, “Will a child be born to him who is one hundred years old? Will Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth?”
Abraham se postró sobre su rostro. Pero se rió y dijo en su corazón: ¿A un hombre de 100 años le nacerá un hijo? Y Sara, ¿dará a luz a los 90 años?
18 Abraham said to God, “Oh that Ishmael might live before you!”
Abraham dijo a ʼElohim: ¡Ojalá Ismael viva delante de Ti!
19 God said, “No, but Sarah, your wife, will bear you a son. You shall call his name Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his offspring after him.
Pero ʼElohim le dijo: Ciertamente tu esposa Sara te dará a luz un hijo. Tú lo llamarás Isaac, y estableceré mi Pacto con él como Pacto perpetuo para su descendencia después de él.
20 As for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly. He will become the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.
En cuanto a Ismael, te escuché: Ciertamente lo bendeciré, lo haré fecundo y lo multiplicaré muchísimo. Engendrará 12 príncipes y haré de él una gran nación.
21 But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.”
Pero mi Pacto lo confirmaré con Isaac, a quien Sara te dará a luz por este tiempo, el año próximo.
22 When he finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.
Cuando terminó de hablarle, ʼElohim ascendió de [la presencia] de Abraham.
23 Abraham took Ishmael his son, all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money: every male among the men of Abraham’s house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the same day, as God had said to him.
Entonces ese mismo día Abraham tomó a Ismael su hijo, a todos los nacidos en su casa, a todos los comprados con su dinero, y a todo varón entre las gentes de la casa de Abraham, y circuncidó su prepucio, como ʼElohim le dijo.
24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Abraham tenía 99 años cuando circuncidó su prepucio,
25 Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
y su hijo Ismael tenía 13 años cuando su prepucio fue circuncidado.
26 In the same day both Abraham and Ishmael, his son, were circumcised.
Aquel mismo día Abraham se circuncidó, y también su hijo Ismael.
27 All the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
Todos los hombres de su casa, nacidos en casa o comprados con dinero a un extranjero, fueron circuncidados con él.
