Genesis 17
1 In truth, after he began to be ninety-nine years of age, the Lord appeared to him. And he said to him: “I am the Almighty God. Walk in my sight and become complete.
Kad je Abramu bilo devedeset i devet godina, ukaza mu se Jahve pa mu reče: “Ja sam El Šadaj - Bog Svesilni, Mojim hodi putem i neporočan budi.
2 And I will set my covenant between me and you. And I will multiply you very exceedingly.”
A Savez svoj ja sklapam s tobom i silno ću te razmnožiti.”
3 Abram fell prone on his face.
Abram pade ničice dok mu Bog govoraše dalje:
4 And God said to him: “I AM, and my covenant is with you, and you will be the father of many nations.
“A ovo je Savez moj s tobom: postat ćeš ocem mnogim narodima;
5 No longer will your name be called Abram. But you will be called Abraham, for I have established you as the father of many nations.
i nećeš se više zvati Abram - već Abraham će ti ime biti, jer naroda mnogih ocem ja te postavljam.
6 And I will cause you to increase very greatly, and I will set you among the nations, and kings will come forth from you.
Silno ću te rodnim učiniti; narode ću iz tebe izvesti; i kraljevi će od tebe izaći.
7 And I will establish my covenant between me and you, and with your offspring after you in their generations, by a perpetual covenant: to be God to you and to your offspring after you.
Savez svoj sklapam između sebe i tebe i tvoga potomstva poslije tebe - Savez svoj za vjekove: ja ću biti Bogom tvojim i tvoga potomstva poslije tebe.
8 And I will give to you and to your offspring, the land of your sojourn, all the land of Canaan, as an eternal possession, and I will be their God.”
Tebi i tvome potomstvu poslije tebe dajem zemlju u kojoj boraviš kao pridošlica - svu zemlju kanaansku - u vjekovni posjed; a ja ću biti njihov Bog.”
9 Again God said to Abraham: “And you therefore shall keep my covenant, and your offspring after you in their generations.
Još reče Bog Abrahamu: “A ti Savez čuvaj moj - ti i tvoje potomstvo poslije tebe u sve vijeke.
10 This is my covenant, which you shall observe, between me and you, and your offspring after you: All the males among you shall be circumcised.
A ovo je Savez moj s tobom i tvojim potomstvom poslije tebe koji ćeš vršiti: svako muško među vama neka bude obrezano.
11 And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, so that it may be a sign of the covenant between me and you.
Obrezujte se, i to neka bude znak Saveza između mene i vas.
12 An infant of eight days will be circumcised among you, every male in your generations. So also servants born to you, as well as those bought, shall be circumcised, even those who are not of your stock.
Svako muško među vama, kroz vaša pokoljenja, kad mu se navrši osam dana, neka bude obrezano; i rob, rođen u vašem domu, i onaj što bude kupljen od stranca, koji ne bude od vaše krvi.
13 And my covenant shall be with your flesh as an eternal covenant.
Da, i rob rođen u tvome domu ili za novac kupljen mora se obrezati! Tako će moj Savez na vašem tijelu ostati vječnim Savezom.
14 The male, the flesh of whose foreskin will not be circumcised, that soul shall be eliminated from his people. For he has made my covenant void.”
Muško koje se ne bi obrezalo neka se odstrani od svoga roda: takav je prekršio moj Savez.”
15 God said also to Abraham: “Your wife Sarai, you shall not call Sarai, but Sarah.
Još reče Bog Abrahamu: “Tvojoj ženi Saraji nije više ime Saraja: Sara će joj ime biti.
16 And I will bless her, and from her I will give you a son, whom I will bless, and he will be among the nations, and the kings of the peoples will rise from him.”
Nju ću ja blagosloviti i od nje ti dati sina; blagoslov ću na nju izliti te će se narodi od nje razviti; kraljevi će narodima od nje poteći.”
17 Abraham fell on his face, and he laughed, saying in his heart: “Do you think a son can be born to a one hundred year old man? And will Sarah give birth at the age of ninety?”
Abraham pade ničice pa se nasmija i reče u sebi: “Onome komu je stotinu godina, zar se može roditi dijete? Zar će Sara u devedesetoj rod rađati!”
18 And he said to God, “If only Ishmael would live in your sight.”
Abraham reče Bogu: “Neka tvojom milošću Jišmael poživi!”
19 And God said to Abraham: “Your wife Sarah shall give birth to a son, and you shall call his name Isaac, and I will establish my covenant with him as a perpetual covenant, and with his offspring after him.
A Bog reče: “Ipak će ti tvoja žena Sara roditi sina; nadjeni mu ime Izak. Savez svoj s njime ću sklopiti, Savez vječni s njime i s njegovim potomstvom poslije njega.
20 Likewise, concerning Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I will bless and enlarge him, and I will multiply him greatly. He will produce twelve leaders, and I will make him into a great nation.
I za Jišmaela uslišah te. Evo ga blagoslivljam: rodnim ću ga učiniti i silno ga razmnožiti; dvanaest će knezova od njega postati i u velik će narod izrasti.
21 Yet in truth, I will establish my covenant with Isaac, to whom Sarah will give birth for you at this time next year.”
Ali ću držati svoj Savez s Izakom, koga će ti roditi Sara dogodine u ovo doba.”
22 And when he had finished speaking with him, God ascended from Abraham.
Kad je završio razgovor s njim, od Abrahama Bog se podiže.
23 Then Abraham took his son Ishmael, and all who were born in his house, and all whom he had bought, every male among the men of his house, and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskin promptly, the very same day, just as God had instructed him.
Uzme zatim Abraham svoga sina Jišmaela i sve robove koji su bili rođeni u njegovu domu i sve koje je kupio novcem - sve muške ukućane - pa ih toga istog dana obreže, kako mu je Bog rekao.
24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he circumcised the flesh of his foreskin.
Abrahamu bijaše devedeset i devet godina kad se obrezao,
25 And his son Ishmael had completed thirteen years at the time of his circumcision.
a njegovu sinu Jišmaelu bijaše trinaest godina kad ga obreza.
26 On the very same day, Abraham was circumcised with his son Ishmael.
Tako su toga istog dana bili obrezani Abraham i njegov sin Jišmael;
27 And all the men of his house, those born in his house, as well as those who were bought, even the foreigners, were circumcised with him.
i svi muškarci njegova doma, rođeni u njegovoj kući ili za novac kupljeni od stranca - svi s njim bijahu obrezani.
