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.
Abram too sio nulu sio ma, LAMATUALAIN natudꞌu Aon neu e nae, “Au ia, Lamatualain fo Mana Koasa. Ho musi tungga mukundoo Au hihii Ngga, ma musodꞌa no ndo-tetuꞌ.
2 I will establish My covenant between Me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly.”
Au ae tao manggatee hehelu-fufuliꞌ Ngga, fo tao tititi-nonosi mara ramaheta.”
3 Then Abram fell facedown, and God said to him,
Abram rena nala ma ana sendeꞌ lululangga na ma naloe langga na losa rae a. Lamatualain o olaꞌ nakandoo nae,
4 “As for Me, this is My covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations.
“Au helu-fuli o nggo, taꞌo ia: Dei fo ho dadꞌi leo naeꞌ bei-baꞌi nara. Naa de, nara ma nda afiꞌ Abram sa (sosoa na ‘amaꞌ nenenahineꞌ’), te nara ma dadꞌi Abraham (sosoa na ‘nusaꞌ naeꞌ bei-baꞌi nara’).
5 No longer will you be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations.
6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful; I will make nations of you, and kings will descend from you.
Dei fo Au tao tititi-nonosiꞌ mara ramahefu-ramabela. Au ufefela leo naeꞌ mia se, ma soꞌu maneꞌ naeꞌ mia tititi-nonosi naa ra.
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.
Au toꞌu uhereꞌ hehelu Ngga o nggo ma tititi-nonosi mara. Hehelu-fufuliꞌ ia nda etu sa, huu Au ia, ho mo tititi-nonosi mara Lamatualain ma.
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.”
Basa rae Kanaꞌan ia, Au fee neu nggo mo tititi-nonosi mara. Oras ia, ho numban a sia ia. Dei fo tititi-nonosi mara soa rae Kanaꞌan ia losa doo na neu. Ma Au o dadꞌi sira Lamatualain na.
9 God also said to Abraham, “You must keep My covenant—you and your descendants in the generations after you.
Te ho mo tititi-nonosi mara musi toꞌu mihereꞌ hehelu-fufuliꞌ ia losa babasa na. Basa touꞌ ra musi sunat.
10 This is My covenant with you and your descendants after you, which you are to keep: Every male among you must be circumcised.
11 You are to circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and this will be a sign of the covenant between Me and you.
Ia naa, ho musi muu sunat basa touꞌ mia fai beꞌe faluꞌ ra. Ho bobꞌonggi ma, atahori mana tao ues ra, no ate fo hasa mia nusa feaꞌ, basa se musi sunat. Sunat ia, dadꞌi hita ruꞌa nggita bukti hehelu-fufuliꞌ na sia hei ao mara.
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.
13 Whether they are born in your household or purchased, they must be circumcised. My covenant in your flesh will be an everlasting covenant.
14 But if any male is not circumcised, he will be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant.”
Touꞌ bee nda sunat sa naa, ana nda masoꞌ sia Au hehelu-fufuli Ngga rala, ma nda dadꞌi Au atahori Ngga sa.”
15 Then God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, do not call her Sarai, for her name is to be Sarah.
Basa de, Lamatualain olaꞌ nakandoo nae, “Mia faiꞌ ia, ho afiꞌ moꞌe sao ma, mae Sarai, te maeꞌ a Sara.
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.”
Dei fo Au fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ naeꞌ neu Sara, fo ana bonggi fee nggo ana touꞌ esa. Tebꞌe! Dei fo Sara dadꞌi leo naeꞌ bei-baꞌi nara. Au o soꞌu maneꞌ naeꞌ mia tititi-nonosi na.”
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?”
Boe ma Abraham sendeꞌ lululangga na, ma beꞌutee losa rae a. Te ana mali sia rala na, ma duꞌa nae, “Tou lasi naeꞌ too natun esa onaꞌ au ia, feꞌe hambu anaꞌ? Ma Sara o lasi naeꞌ too sio nulu naa, feꞌe nae bꞌonggi ena?”
18 And Abraham said to God, “O that Ishmael might live under Your blessing!”
De ana nafadꞌe Lamatualain nae, “Lamatualain. Hela fo Ismael hambu au hata-heto ngga o, nda saa saꞌ boe.”
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.
Te Lamatualain nataa nae, “Hokoꞌ! Mete te sao ma Sara bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa. Ho musi babꞌae naran, Isak. Au hehelu-fufuli Ngga tudꞌa neu e, no tititi-nonosi nara, losa doo na neu.
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.
Te Au o rena saa fo moꞌe fee Ismael. Naa de, Au o fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu e, ma tao umuhefu-umubela tititi-nonosi nara boe. Dei fo hambu maneleo sanahulu rua mia tititi-nonosi nara. Ma tititi-nonosi nara dadꞌi leo esa manaseliꞌ.
21 But I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this time next year.”
Onaꞌ mae taꞌo naa o, Au hehelu-fufuli Ngga ia fee neu ana ma Isak. To mana nemaꞌ ia, nandaa no leleꞌ ia, Sara bꞌonggi e.”
22 When He had finished speaking with Abraham, God went up from him.
Olaꞌ basa taꞌo naa ma, Lamatualain lao hela Abraham.
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.
Faiꞌ naa boe, Abraham tungga Lamatualain parenda Na, de ana sunat. Ana o sunat Ismael no basa touꞌ mana sia ume na ma basa ate touꞌ ra boe. Leleꞌ naa, Abraham too sio nulu sio, ma Ismael too sanahulu telu.
24 So Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised,
25 and his son Ishmael was thirteen;
26 Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the same day.
27 And all the men of Abraham’s household—both servants born in his household and those purchased from foreigners—were circumcised with him.
