Postanak 17
1 Kad je Abramu bilo devedeset i devet godina, ukaza mu se Jahve pa mu reče: “Ja sam El Šadaj - Bog Svesilni, Mojim hodi putem i neporočan budi.
And after he began to be ninety and nine years old, the Lord appeared to him: and said unto him: I am the Almighty God: walk before me, and be perfect.
2 A Savez svoj ja sklapam s tobom i silno ću te razmnožiti.”
And I will make my covenant between me and thee: and I will multiply thee exceedingly.
3 Abram pade ničice dok mu Bog govoraše dalje:
Abram fell flat on his face.
4 “A ovo je Savez moj s tobom: postat ćeš ocem mnogim narodima;
And God said to him: I AM, and my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
5 i nećeš se više zvati Abram - već Abraham će ti ime biti, jer naroda mnogih ocem ja te postavljam.
Neither shall thy name be called any more Abram: but thou shalt be called Abraham: because I have made thee a father of many nations.
6 Silno ću te rodnim učiniti; narode ću iz tebe izvesti; i kraljevi će od tebe izaći.
And I will make thee increase, exceedingly, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
7 Savez svoj sklapam između sebe i tebe i tvoga potomstva poslije tebe - Savez svoj za vjekove: ja ću biti Bogom tvojim i tvoga potomstva poslije tebe.
And I will establish my covenant between me and thee, and between thy seed after thee in their generations, by a perpetual covenant: to be a God to thee, and to thy seed after thee.
8 Tebi i tvome potomstvu poslije tebe dajem zemlju u kojoj boraviš kao pridošlica - svu zemlju kanaansku - u vjekovni posjed; a ja ću biti njihov Bog.”
And I will give to thee, and to thy seed, the land of thy sojournment, all the land of Chanaan for a perpetual possession, and I will be their God.
9 Još reče Bog Abrahamu: “A ti Savez čuvaj moj - ti i tvoje potomstvo poslije tebe u sve vijeke.
Again God said to Abraham: And thou therefore shalt keep my covenant, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
10 A ovo je Savez moj s tobom i tvojim potomstvom poslije tebe koji ćeš vršiti: svako muško među vama neka bude obrezano.
This is my covenant which you shall observe, between me and you, and thy seed after thee: All the male kind of you shall be circumcised:
11 Obrezujte se, i to neka bude znak Saveza između mene i vas.
And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, that it may be for a sign of the covenant between me and you.
12 Svako muško među vama, kroz vaša pokoljenja, kad mu se navrši osam dana, neka bude obrezano; i rob, rođen u vašem domu, i onaj što bude kupljen od stranca, koji ne bude od vaše krvi.
An infant of eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations: he that is born in the house, as well as the bought servant shall be circumcised, and whosoever is not of your stock:
13 Da, i rob rođen u tvome domu ili za novac kupljen mora se obrezati! Tako će moj Savez na vašem tijelu ostati vječnim Savezom.
And my covenant shall be in your flesh for a perpetual covenant.
14 Muško koje se ne bi obrezalo neka se odstrani od svoga roda: takav je prekršio moj Savez.”
The male, whose flesh of his foreskin shall not be circumcised, that soul shall be destroyed out of his people: because he hath broken my covenant.
15 Još reče Bog Abrahamu: “Tvojoj ženi Saraji nije više ime Saraja: Sara će joj ime biti.
God said also to Abraham: Sarai thy wife thou shalt not call Sarai, but Sara.
16 Nju ću ja blagosloviti i od nje ti dati sina; blagoslov ću na nju izliti te će se narodi od nje razviti; kraljevi će narodima od nje poteći.”
And I will bless her, and of her I will give thee a son, whom I will bless, and he shall become nations, and kings of people shall spring from him.
17 Abraham pade ničice pa se nasmija i reče u sebi: “Onome komu je stotinu godina, zar se može roditi dijete? Zar će Sara u devedesetoj rod rađati!”
Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, saying in his heart: Shall a son, thinkest thou, be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sara that is ninety years old bring forth?
18 Abraham reče Bogu: “Neka tvojom milošću Jišmael poživi!”
And he said to God: O that Ismael may live before thee.
19 A Bog reče: “Ipak će ti tvoja žena Sara roditi sina; nadjeni mu ime Izak. Savez svoj s njime ću sklopiti, Savez vječni s njime i s njegovim potomstvom poslije njega.
And God said to Abraham: Sara thy wife shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Isaac, and I will establish my covenant with him for a perpetual covenant, and with his seed after him.
20 I za Jišmaela uslišah te. Evo ga blagoslivljam: rodnim ću ga učiniti i silno ga razmnožiti; dvanaest će knezova od njega postati i u velik će narod izrasti.
And as for Ismael I have also heard thee. Behold, I will bless him, and increase, and multiply him exceedingly: he shall beget twelve chiefs, and I will make him a great nation.
21 Ali ću držati svoj Savez s Izakom, koga će ti roditi Sara dogodine u ovo doba.”
But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sara shall bring forth to thee at this time in the next year.
22 Kad je završio razgovor s njim, od Abrahama Bog se podiže.
And when he had left off speaking with him, God went up from Abraham.
23 Uzme zatim Abraham svoga sina Jišmaela i sve robove koji su bili rođeni u njegovu domu i sve koje je kupio novcem - sve muške ukućane - pa ih toga istog dana obreže, kako mu je Bog rekao.
And Abraham took Ismael his son, and all that were born in his house: and all whom he had bought, every male among the men of his house: and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskin forthwith the very same day, as God had commanded him.
24 Abrahamu bijaše devedeset i devet godina kad se obrezao,
Abraham was ninety and nine years old, when he circumcised the flesh of his foreskin.
25 a njegovu sinu Jišmaelu bijaše trinaest godina kad ga obreza.
And Ismael his son was full thirteen years old at the time of his circumcision.
26 Tako su toga istog dana bili obrezani Abraham i njegov sin Jišmael;
The selfsame day was Abraham circumcised and Ismael his son.
27 i svi muškarci njegova doma, rođeni u njegovoj kući ili za novac kupljeni od stranca - svi s njim bijahu obrezani.
And all the men of his house, as well they that were born in his house, as the bought servants and strangers were circumcised with him.
