Chakruok 17
1 Kane Abram ne ja-higni piero ochiko gochiko, Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyorene mi nowachone niya, “An Nyasaye Maratego; bed ngʼama odimbore e nyima kendo maonge ketho.
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 Abiro guro singruokna e kinda kodi kendo anamed kothi obed mangʼeny.”
and I give My covenant between Me and you, and multiply you very exceedingly.”
3 Abram nopodho auma e nyim Nyasaye kendo Nyasaye nowachone niya,
And Abram falls on his face, and God speaks with him, saying,
4 “Singruok matimo kodi ema: Inibed wuon ogendini mangʼeny.
“I—behold, My covenant [is] with you, and you have become father of a multitude of nations;
5 Ok nochak oluongi ni Abram; to enoluongi ni Ibrahim, nimar aseketi ibedo wuon ogendini mangʼeny.
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 Anamiyi nyikwayo mathoth; ginidog ogendini madongo kendo ruodhi nowuog kuomgi.
and I have made you exceedingly fruitful, and made you become nations, and kings go out from you.
7 Anagur singruokna manyaka chiengʼ e kinda kodi gi nyikwayi kod tienge mabiro, mi anabed Nyasachi kendo Nyasach nyikwayi nyaka chiengʼ.
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 Piny Kanaan duto makoro udakieni anamiyi kaachiel gi nyikwayi mondo obed girkeni manyaka chiengʼ kendo anabed Nyasachgi.”
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 Eka Nyasaye nowacho ne Ibrahim niya, “In kaachiel gi nyikwayi kod tienge mabiro nyaka rit singruokna.
And God says to Abraham, “And you keep My covenant, you and your seed after you, throughout their generations;
10 Singruokna manyaka iriti, in kaachiel gi nyikwayi ema: Ngʼato ka ngʼata madichwo e kindu nyaka ter nyangu.
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 Nyaka teru nyangu kendo ma nobed ranyisi mar singruokna e kinda kodu.
and you have circumcised the flesh of your foreskin, and it has become a token of a covenant between Me and you.
12 Kuom tienge mabiro ngʼato angʼata madichwo monywol e uteu kata ongʼiew gi pesa ma ok kothu nyaka ter nyangu, e odiechiengʼ mar aboro bangʼ nywolne.
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 Nyaka tergi nyangu bedni onywolgi e uteu kata ongʼiewogi gi pesa. Singruokna man kuom ringreu nyaka bed mosiko.
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 Ngʼato angʼata madichwo, mane ok oter nyangu e ringruok, nogol oko kuom jogi; nikech oseketho singruokna.”
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 Nyasaye nomedo wachone Ibrahim niya, “Koro ok inichak iluong Sarai chiegi ni Sarai, to iniluonge ni Sara.
And God says to Abraham, “Sarai your wife—you do not call her name Sarai, for Sarah [is] her name;
16 Anagwedhe kendo anamiyi nyathi ma wuowi koa kuome. Anagwedhe mi nobed min ogendini; kendo ruodhi mag ogendini noa kuome.”
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 Ibrahim nopodho auma; monyiero kowacho e chunye niya, “Bende ngʼama ja-higni mia achiel nyalo nywolo wuowi? Bende Sara ma ja-higni piero ochiko nyalo nywolo nyathi?”
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 Kendo Ibrahim nowacho ne Nyasaye niya, “Mano nyalo mana timore kaponi Ishmael odak e bwo ngʼwono mari!”
And Abraham says to God, “O that Ishmael may live before You”;
19 Eka Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Ooyo, en mana Sara chiegi ema nonywolni wuowi, kendo iniluong nyinge ni Isaka. Anaket singruokna kode kaka singruok manyaka chiengʼ ne nyikwaye.
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 To bende asewinjo kwayo mikwayo nikech Ishmael, omiyo anagwedhe, kendo anamiye nyithindo gi nyikwayo mangʼeny.
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 Makmana singruokna abiro chopo gi Isaka ma Sara biro nywolone e kinde maka ma e higa mabiro.”
and My covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah does bear to you at this appointed time in the next year”;
22 Kane Nyasaye osetieko wuoyo kod Ibrahim, noweye modhi.
and He finishes speaking with him, and God goes up from Abraham.
23 E odiechiengno Ibrahim nokawo wuode Ishmael kod jogo duto machwo monywol e ode kata mane ongʼiewo gi pesa, kendo noterogi nyangu, mana kaka Nyasaye nonyise.
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 Ibrahim ne ja-higni piero ochiko gochiko kane otere nyangu,
And Abraham [is] a son of ninety-nine years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;
25 to wuode Ishmael ne ja-higni apar gadek.
and his son Ishmael [is] a son of thirteen years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;
26 Ibrahim kod wuode Ishmael noter nyangu odiechiengno.
in this very same day Abraham has been circumcised, and his son Ishmael;
27 Kendo chwo duto mane ni e od Ibrahim, kaachiel gi monywol e ode kata ma ongʼiewo, bende noter nyangu kode.
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.
