< Genesis 17 >
1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless.
Ketika Abram berumur sembilan puluh sembilan tahun, TUHAN menampakkan diri kepadanya dan berkata, "Akulah Allah Yang Mahakuasa. Taatilah Aku dan lakukanlah kehendak-Ku selalu.
2 I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”
Aku akan mengikat perjanjian denganmu dan memberikan kepadamu keturunan yang banyak."
3 Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying,
Lalu sujudlah Abram, kemudian Allah berkata,
4 “As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations.
"Inilah perjanjian yang Kubuat dengan engkau: Aku berjanji bahwa engkau akan menjadi bapak leluhur banyak bangsa. Oleh karena itu namamu bukan lagi Abram, melainkan Abraham.
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.
6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you. Kings will come out of you.
Aku akan memberikan kepadamu banyak anak cucu, dan di antara mereka akan ada yang menjadi raja-raja. Keturunanmu akan begitu banyak, sehingga mereka akan menjadi bangsa-bangsa.
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.
Aku akan memenuhi janji-Ku kepadamu dan kepada keturunanmu, turun-temurun, dan perjanjian itu kekal. Aku akan menjadi Allahmu dan Allah keturunanmu.
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.”
Aku akan memberikan kepadamu dan kepada keturunanmu, tanah ini, yang sekarang engkau diami sebagai orang asing. Seluruh tanah Kanaan akan menjadi milik anak cucumu untuk selama-lamanya dan Aku akan menjadi Allah mereka."
9 God said to Abraham, “As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations.
Allah berkata lagi kepada Abraham, "Engkau pun harus setia kepada perjanjian ini, baik engkau maupun keturunanmu turun-temurun.
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.
Engkau dan semua keturunanmu yang laki-laki harus disunat.
11 You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you.
Mulai dari sekarang engkau harus menyunatkan setiap bayi laki-laki yang berumur delapan hari, termasuk para hamba yang lahir di rumahmu atau yang kaubeli. Sunat itu akan menjadi tanda dari perjanjian antara Aku dan kamu.
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.
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.
Setiap orang harus disunat, dan itu akan menjadi tanda lahiriah yang menunjukkan bahwa perjanjian-Ku denganmu itu kekal.
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.”
Setiap laki-laki yang tidak disunat tidak lagi dianggap anggota umat-Ku karena ia tidak berpegang pada perjanjian itu."
15 God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.
Kemudian Allah berkata kepada Abraham, "Engkau jangan lagi memanggil istrimu Sarai; mulai sekarang namanya 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.”
Aku akan memberkatinya dan ia akan melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki yang akan Kuberikan kepadamu. Ya, Aku akan memberkati Sara, dan ia akan menjadi ibu leluhur bangsa-bangsa. Di antara keturunannya akan ada raja-raja."
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?”
Lalu sujudlah Abraham, tetapi ia tertawa ketika berpikir, "Mana mungkin seorang laki-laki yang sudah berumur seratus tahun mendapat anak? Mana mungkin Sara melahirkan pada usia sembilan puluh tahun?"
18 Abraham said to God, “Oh that Ishmael might live before you!”
Lalu berkatalah ia kepada Allah, "Sebaiknya Ismael saja yang menjadi ahli waris saya."
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.
Tetapi Allah berkata, "Tidak. Sara istrimu akan melahirkan anak laki-laki dan engkau akan menamakannya Ishak. Aku akan setia kepada perjanjian-Ku dengan anak itu dan dengan keturunannya untuk selama-lamanya. Perjanjian itu kekal.
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.
Tetapi Aku mengabulkan juga permohonanmu mengenai Ismael. Karena itu dia akan Kuberkati dan Kuberi keturunan yang banyak. Ia akan menjadi leluhur dua belas kepala suku, dan keturunannya akan Kujadikan suatu bangsa yang besar.
21 But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.”
Tetapi perjanjian-Ku akan Kuikat dengan Ishak, anakmu yang akan dilahirkan oleh Sara, tahun depan kira-kira pada waktu seperti ini."
22 When he finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.
Setelah selesai berkata begitu, Allah meninggalkan 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.
Pada hari itu juga, Abraham mentaati Allah dan menyunatkan Ismael anaknya, dan semua orang laki-laki dalam rumahnya, termasuk para hamba yang lahir dalam rumahnya maupun yang dibelinya.
24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Abraham berumur sembilan puluh sembilan tahun ketika ia disunat
25 Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
dan Ismael anaknya, berumur tiga belas tahun.
26 In the same day both Abraham and Ishmael, his son, were circumcised.
Mereka disunat pada hari yang sama,
27 All the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
bersama-sama dengan semua hamba Abraham.
