創世記 17
1 亞伯蘭年九十九歲的時候，耶和華向他顯現，對他說：「我是全能的上帝。你當在我面前作完全人，
When Abram was ninetie yeere olde and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said vnto him, I am God all sufficient. walke before me, and be thou vpright,
2 我就與你立約，使你的後裔極其繁多。」
And I will make my couenant betweene me and thee, and I will multiplie thee exceedingly.
3 亞伯蘭俯伏在地；上帝又對他說：
Then Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying,
4 「我與你立約：你要作多國的父。
Beholde, I make my couenant with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations,
5 從此以後，你的名不再叫亞伯蘭，要叫亞伯拉罕，因為我已立你作多國的父。
Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shalbe Abraham: for a father of many nations haue I made thee.
6 我必使你的後裔極其繁多；國度從你而立，君王從你而出。
Also I will make thee exceeding fruitfull, and will make nations of thee: yea, Kings shall proceede of thee.
7 我要與你並你世世代代的後裔堅立我的約，作永遠的約，是要作你和你後裔的上帝。
Moreouer I wil establish my couenant betweene me and thee, and thy seede after thee in their generations, for an euerlasting couenant, to be God vnto thee and to thy seede after thee.
8 我要將你現在寄居的地，就是迦南全地，賜給你和你的後裔永遠為業，我也必作他們的上帝。」
And I will giue thee and thy seede after thee the land, wherein thou art a stranger, euen all the land of Canaan, for an euerlasting possession, and I will be their God.
9 上帝又對亞伯拉罕說：「你和你的後裔必世世代代遵守我的約。
Againe God said vnto Abraham, Thou also shalt keepe my couenant, thou, and thy seede after thee in their generations.
10 你們所有的男子都要受割禮；這就是我與你並你的後裔所立的約，是你們所當遵守的。
This is my couenant which ye shall keepe betweene me and you, and thy seede after thee, Let euery man childe among you be circumcised:
11 你們都要受割禮；這是我與你們立約的證據。
That is, ye shall circumcise the foreskin of your flesh, and it shalbe a signe of the couenant betweene me and you.
12 你們世世代代的男子，無論是家裏生的，是在你後裔之外用銀子從外人買的，生下來第八日，都要受割禮。
And euery man childe of eight dayes olde among you, shalbe circumcised in your generations, aswell he that is borne in thine house, as he that is bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seede.
13 你家裏生的和你用銀子買的，都必須受割禮。這樣，我的約就立在你們肉體上作永遠的約。
He that is borne in thine house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needes be circumcised: so my couenant shall be in your flesh for an euerlasting couenant.
14 但不受割禮的男子必從民中剪除，因他背了我的約。」
But the vncircumcised man childe, in whose flesh the foreskin is not circumcised, euen that person shall be cut off from his people, because he hath broken my couenant.
15 上帝又對亞伯拉罕說：「你的妻子撒萊不可再叫撒萊，她的名要叫撒拉。
Afterward God said vnto Abraham, Sarai thy wife shalt thou not call Sarai, but Sarah shalbe her name.
16 我必賜福給她，也要使你從她得一個兒子。我要賜福給她，她也要作多國之母；必有百姓的君王從她而出。」
And I will blesse her, and will also giue thee a sonne of her, yea, I will blesse her, and she shall be the mother of nations: Kings also of people shall come of her.
17 亞伯拉罕就俯伏在地喜笑，心裏說：「一百歲的人還能得孩子嗎？撒拉已經九十歲了，還能生養嗎？」
Then Abraham fell vpon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a childe be borne vnto him, that is an hundreth yeere olde? and shall Sarah that is ninetie yeere olde beare?
18 亞伯拉罕對上帝說：「但願以實瑪利活在你面前。」
And Abraham saide vnto God, Oh, that Ishmael might liue in thy sight.
19 上帝說：「不然，你妻子撒拉要給你生一個兒子，你要給他起名叫以撒。我要與他堅定所立的約，作他後裔永遠的約。
Then God saide, Sarah thy wife shall beare thee a sonne in deede, and thou shalt call his name Izhak: and I will establish my couenant with him for an euerlasting couenant, and with his seede after him.
20 至於以實瑪利，我也應允你：我必賜福給他，使他昌盛，極其繁多。他必生十二個族長；我也要使他成為大國。
And as concerning Ishmael, I haue heard thee: loe, I haue blessed him, and will make him fruitfull, and will multiplie him exceedingly: twelue princes shall he beget, and I will make a great nation of him.
21 到明年這時節，撒拉必給你生以撒，我要與他堅定所立的約。」
But my couenant will I establish with Izhak, which Sarah shall beare vnto thee, the next yeere at this season.
22 上帝和亞伯拉罕說完了話，就離開他上升去了。
And he left off talking with him, and God went vp from Abraham.
23 正當那日，亞伯拉罕遵着上帝的命，給他的兒子以實瑪利和家裏的一切男子，無論是在家裏生的，是用銀子買的，都行了割禮。
Then Abraham tooke Ishmael his sonne and all that were borne in his house, and all that was bought with his money, that is, euery man childe among the men of Abrahams house, and he circumcised the foreskinne of their flesh in that selfe same day, as God had comaunded him.
24 亞伯拉罕受割禮的時候年九十九歲。
Abraham also himselfe was ninetie yeere olde and nine, when the foreskinne of his flesh was circumcised.
25 他兒子以實瑪利受割禮的時候年十三歲。
And Ishmael his sonne was thirteene yeere olde, when the foreskinne of his flesh was circumcised.
26 正當那日，亞伯拉罕和他兒子以實瑪利一同受了割禮。
The selfe same day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his sonne:
27 家裏所有的人，無論是在家裏生的，是用銀子從外人買的，也都一同受了割禮。
And all the men of his house, both borne in his house, and bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
