Genesis 17
1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty. Walk before Me and be blameless.
Sa’ad da Abram ya yi shekaru 99, sai Ubangiji ya bayyana a gare shi ya ce, ni “Ni ne Allah Maɗaukaki, ka yi tafiya a gabana ka kuma zama marar abin zargi.
2 I will establish My covenant between Me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly.”
Zan tabbatar da alkawarina tsakanina da kai, zan kuma ƙara zuriyarka ta yi yawa.”
3 Then Abram fell facedown, and God said to him,
Abram ya rusuna da fuskarsa har ƙasa, Allah kuma ya ce masa,
4 “As for Me, this is My covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations.
“Gare ni kam, wannan shi ne alkawarina da kai, za ka zama mahaifin al’ummai masu yawa.
5 No longer will you be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations.
Ba za a ƙara kiranka Abram ba; sunanka zai zama Ibrahim, gama na mai da kai uban al’ummai masu yawa.
6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful; I will make nations of you, and kings will descend from you.
Zan sa ka azurta sosai, zan yi al’ummai daga cikinka, sarakuna kuma za su fito daga cikinka,
7 I will establish My covenant as an everlasting covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you.
zan kafa alkawarina kamar madawwamin alkawari tsakanina da kai da kuma zuriyarka bayanka har tsararraki masu zuwa, in zama Allahnka da kuma Allahn zuriyarka a bayanka.
8 And to you and your descendants I will give the land where you are residing—all the land of Canaan—as an eternal possession; and I will be their God.”
Dukan ƙasar Kan’ana inda kake baƙo a yanzu, zan ba da ita a matsayin madawwamiyar mallaka gare ka da kuma zuriyarka a bayanka, zan kuma zama Allahnsu.”
9 God also said to Abraham, “You must keep My covenant—you and your descendants in the generations after you.
Sa’an nan Allah ya ce wa Ibrahim. “Kai fa, sai ka kiyaye alkawarina, kai da zuriyarka bayanka, har tsararraki masu zuwa.
10 This is My covenant with you and your descendants after you, which you are to keep: Every male among you must be circumcised.
Wannan shi ne alkawarina da kai da kuma zuriyarka a bayanka, alkawarin da za ka kiyaye ke nan. Kowane namiji a cikinku kuwa za a yi masa kaciya.
11 You are to circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and this will be a sign of the covenant between Me and you.
Za ku yi kaciya, za tă kuma zama alamar alkawari tsakanina da kai.
12 Generation after generation, every male must be circumcised when he is eight days old, including those born in your household and those purchased from a foreigner—even those who are not your offspring.
Daga yanzu duk namijin da aka haifa a cikinku za a yi masa kaciya a rana ta takwas har dukan zamananku, ko haifaffen gida ne, ko sayayye da kuɗi daga kowane baƙo wanda ba na zuriyarku ba.
13 Whether they are born in your household or purchased, they must be circumcised. My covenant in your flesh will be an everlasting covenant.
Ko haifaffe a gidanka ko an sayo da kuɗi, dole a yi musu kaciya. Alkawarina cikin jikinku zai kasance madawwamin alkawari.
14 But if any male is not circumcised, he will be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant.”
Kowane namijin da ba a yi masa kaciya a jiki ba, za a fid da shi daga cikin mutanensa; domin ya karya alkawarina.”
15 Then God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, do not call her Sarai, for her name is to be Sarah.
Allah ya kuma ce wa Ibrahim, “Game da Saira matarka kuwa, ba za ka ƙara kiranta Saira ba, sunanta zai zama Saratu.
16 And I will bless her and will surely give you a son by her. I will bless her, and she will be the mother of nations; kings of peoples will descend from her.”
Zan sa mata albarka, ban da haka ma, zan ba ka ɗa ta wurinta, zan sa mata albarka, za tă kuwa zama mahaifiyar al’ummai; sarakunan mutane za su fito daga gare ta.”
17 Abraham fell facedown. Then he laughed and said to himself, “Can a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? Can Sarah give birth at the age of ninety?”
Ibrahim ya rusuna da fuskarsa har ƙasa, ya yi dariya, ya ce wa kansa, “Za a haifi ɗa wa mutum mai shekaru ɗari? Saratu za tă haifi ɗa tana da shekaru tasa’in?”
18 And Abraham said to God, “O that Ishmael might live under Your blessing!”
Ibrahim ya kuma ce wa Allah, “Me zai hana a dai bar Ishmayel kawai yă gāji alkawarin nan da ka yi mini.”
19 But God replied, “Your wife Sarah will indeed bear you a son, and you are to name him Isaac. I will establish My covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him.
Sai Allah ya ce, “Duk da haka dai, matarka Saratu za tă haifi maka ɗa; za ka kuma kira shi Ishaku. A kansa zan tabbatar da madawwamin alkawarina, da kuma ga zuriyarsa da za su zo bayansa.
20 As for Ishmael, I have heard you, and I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and multiply him greatly. He will become the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.
Game da Ishmayel kuwa, na ji ka. Tabbatacce zan albarkace shi, zan sa yă azurta, zai kuma ƙaru ƙwarai. Zai zama mahaifin masu mulki goma sha biyu, zan kuma maishe shi babban al’umma!
21 But I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this time next year.”
Amma dai zan kafa alkawarina da Ishaku wanda Saratu za tă haifa maka war haka shekara mai zuwa.”
22 When He had finished speaking with Abraham, God went up from him.
Da ya gama magana da Ibrahim, sai Allah ya tashi daga gare shi.
23 On that very day Abraham took his son Ishmael and all those born in his household or purchased with his money—every male among the members of Abraham’s household—and he circumcised them, just as God had told him.
A wannan rana, Ibrahim ya ɗauki ɗansa Ishmayel da dukan waɗanda aka haifa cikin gidansa, da waɗanda aka sayo da kuɗinsa, ya kuwa yi wa kowane namiji a cikin gidansa kaciya kamar yadda Allah ya faɗa masa.
24 So Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised,
Ibrahim yana da shekara tasa’in da tara sa’ad da aka yi masa kaciya,
25 and his son Ishmael was thirteen;
Ishmayel ɗansa kuma yana da shekara goma sha uku.
26 Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the same day.
Aka yi wa Ibrahim da ɗansa Ishmayel kaciya a rana ɗaya.
27 And all the men of Abraham’s household—both servants born in his household and those purchased from foreigners—were circumcised with him.
Aka yi wa kowane namiji a gidan Ibrahim kaciya, da waɗanda aka haifa a gidansa, da waɗanda aka sayo da kuɗi daga baƙo.
