< Genesis 17 >

1 And Abram was ninety-nine years old, and the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, I am your God, be well-pleasing 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 And 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 And Abram fell upon his face, and God spoke to him, saying,
Abram rena nala ma ana sendeꞌ lululangga na ma naloe langga na losa rae a. Lamatualain o olaꞌ nakandoo nae,
4 And I, behold! my covenant [is] with you, and you shall be a father of a multitude of 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 And your name shall no more be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraam, for I have made you a father of many nations.
6 And I will increase you very exceedingly, and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come out of 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 And I will establish my covenant between you and your seed after you, to their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be your God, and [the God] of your seed 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 I will give to you and to your seed after you the land wherein you sojourn, even all the land of Chanaan for an everlasting possession, and I will be to them a 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 And God said to Abraam, You also shall fully keep my covenant, you and your seed after you for their generations.
Te ho mo tititi-nonosi mara musi toꞌu mihereꞌ hehelu-fufuliꞌ ia losa babasa na. Basa touꞌ ra musi sunat.
10 And this [is] the covenant which you shall fully keep between me and you, and between your seed after you for their generations; every male of you shall be circumcised.
11 And you shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be for a sign of a 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 And the child of eight days [old] shall be circumcised by you, every male throughout your generations, and [the servant] born in the house and he that is bought with money, of every son of a stranger, who is not of your seed.
13 He that is born in your house, and he that is bought with money shall be surely circumcised, and my covenant shall be on your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
14 And the uncircumcised male, who shall not be circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin on the eighth day, that soul shall be utterly destroyed from its family, for 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 And God said to Abraam, Sara your wife—her name shall not be called Sara, Sarrha shall be her name.
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 give you a son of her, and I will bless him, and he shall become nations, and kings of nations shall be of him.
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 And Abraam fell upon his face, and laughed; and spoke in his heart, saying, Shall there be a child to one who is a hundred years old, and shall Sarrha who is ninety years old, bear?
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 Abraam said to God, Let this Ismael live before you.
De ana nafadꞌe Lamatualain nae, “Lamatualain. Hela fo Ismael hambu au hata-heto ngga o, nda saa saꞌ boe.”
19 And God said to Abraam, Yes, behold, Sarrha your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac; and I will establish my covenant with him, for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to him and to his seed 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 And concerning Ismael, behold, I have heard you, and, behold, I have blessed him, and will increase him and multiply him exceedingly; twelve nations shall he beget, and I will make him 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 Sarrha shall bear to you at this time, in the 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 And he left off speaking with him, and God went up from Abraam.
Olaꞌ basa taꞌo naa ma, Lamatualain lao hela Abraham.
23 And Abraam took Ismael his son, and all his home-born [servants], and all those bought with money, and every male of the men in the house of Abraam, and he circumcised their foreskins in the time of that day, according as God spoke to 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 And Abraam was ninety-nine years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
25 And Ismael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
26 And at the period of that day, Abraam was circumcised, and Ismael his son,
27 and all the men of his house, both those born in the house, and those bought with money of foreign nations.
