< 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 Abram is a son of ninety-nine years, and YHWH appears to Abram, and says to him, “I [am] God Almighty, habitually walk before Me, and be perfect;
2 A Savez svoj ja sklapam s tobom i silno ću te razmnožiti.”
and I give My covenant between Me and you, and multiply you very exceedingly.”
3 Abram pade ničice dok mu Bog govoraše dalje:
And Abram falls on his face, and God speaks with him, saying,
4 “A ovo je Savez moj s tobom: postat ćeš ocem mnogim narodima;
“I—behold, My covenant [is] with you, and you have become father of a multitude of nations;
5 i nećeš se više zvati Abram - već Abraham će ti ime biti, jer naroda mnogih ocem ja te postavljam.
and your name is no longer called Abram, but your name has been Abraham, for father of a multitude of nations have I made you;
6 Silno ću te rodnim učiniti; narode ću iz tebe izvesti; i kraljevi će od tebe izaći.
and I have made you exceedingly fruitful, and made you become nations, and kings go out from you.
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 have established My covenant between Me and you, and your seed after you, throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant, to become God to you, and to your seed after you;
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 have given to you, and to your seed after you, the land of your sojournings, the whole land of Canaan, for a continuous possession, and I have become their God.”
9 Još reče Bog Abrahamu: “A ti Savez čuvaj moj - ti i tvoje potomstvo poslije tebe u sve vijeke.
And God says to Abraham, “And you keep My covenant, you and your seed after you, throughout 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 keep between Me and you, and your seed after you: every male of you [is] to be circumcised;
11 Obrezujte se, i to neka bude znak Saveza između mene i vas.
and you have circumcised the flesh of your foreskin, and it has become a token of a 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.
And a son of eight days is circumcised by you; every male throughout your generations, born in the house, or bought with money from any son of a stranger, who is not of your seed;
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.
he is certainly circumcised who [is] born in your house, or bought with your money; and My covenant has become in your flesh a perpetual covenant;
14 Muško koje se ne bi obrezalo neka se odstrani od svoga roda: takav je prekršio moj Savez.”
and an uncircumcised one, a male, the flesh of whose foreskin is not circumcised, indeed, that person has been cut off from his people; My covenant he has broken.”
15 Još reče Bog Abrahamu: “Tvojoj ženi Saraji nije više ime Saraja: Sara će joj ime biti.
And God says to Abraham, “Sarai your wife—you do not call her name Sarai, for Sarah [is] her name;
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 have blessed her, and have also given to you a son from her; and I have blessed her, and she has become nations—kings of peoples are from her.”
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!”
And Abraham falls on his face, and laughs, and says in his heart, “Is one born to the son of one hundred years? Or does Sarah—daughter of ninety years—bear?”
18 Abraham reče Bogu: “Neka tvojom milošću Jišmael poživi!”
And Abraham says to God, “O that Ishmael may live before You”;
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 says, “Your wife Sarah is certainly bearing a son to you, and you have called his name Isaac, and I have established My covenant with him, for a perpetual covenant, to 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.
As for Ishmael, I have heard you; behold, I have blessed him, and made him fruitful, and multiplied him, very exceedingly; twelve princes does he beget, and I have made him become a great nation;
21 Ali ću držati svoj Savez s Izakom, koga će ti roditi Sara dogodine u ovo doba.”
and My covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah does bear to you at this appointed time in the next year”;
22 Kad je završio razgovor s njim, od Abrahama Bog se podiže.
and He finishes speaking with him, and God goes 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 takes his son Ishmael, and all those born in his house, and all those bought with his money—every male among the men of Abraham’s house and circumcises the flesh of their foreskin, in this very same day, as God has spoken with him.
24 Abrahamu bijaše devedeset i devet godina kad se obrezao,
And Abraham [is] a son of ninety-nine years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;
25 a njegovu sinu Jišmaelu bijaše trinaest godina kad ga obreza.
and his son Ishmael [is] a son of thirteen years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;
26 Tako su toga istog dana bili obrezani Abraham i njegov sin Jišmael;
in this very same day Abraham has been circumcised, and his son Ishmael;
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—born in the house, and bought with money from the son of a stranger—have been circumcised with him.
