Genesis 17
1 And after he began to be ninety and nine years old, the Lord appeared to him: and said unto him: I am the Almighty God: walk before me, and be perfect.
Hathnukkhu, Abram teh kum 99 a pha navah, BAWIPA ni Abram koe a kamnue teh, kai teh Athakasaipounge Cathut doeh ka hmalah toun hane kawi kaawm hoeh lah awm haw.
2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee: and I will multiply thee exceedingly.
Kaie lawkkamnae nang hoi ka sak vaiteh moikapap na pungdaw sak han telah atipouh.
3 Abram fell flat on his face.
Abram ni a tabo teh Cathut ni,
4 And God said to him: I AM, and my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
Thai haw kaie lawkkamnae teh nang koe ao. Nang teh miphun moikapap e a na pa lah na o han.
5 Neither shall thy name be called any more Abram: but thou shalt be called Abraham: because I have made thee a father of many nations.
Nange na min hai Abram telah na kaw mahoeh toe. Abraham telah na kaw han toe, bangkongtetpawiteh nang teh miphun moikapap e na pa lah na coung han.
6 And I will make thee increase, exceedingly, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
Kai ni moikapap na pungdaw sak han. Nang lahoi miphunnaw ka pung sak vaiteh, nang dawk hoi siangpahrang a tâco han.
7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee, and between thy seed after thee in their generations, by a perpetual covenant: to be a God to thee, and to thy seed after thee.
Ka lawkkamnae ka caksak vaiteh nang hoi kai rahak, na canaw hoi patuen e na catoun rahak vah a yungyoe e lawkkam lah ao han. Kai teh nang hoi na ca catounnaw e Cathut lah ka o han.
8 And I will give to thee, and to thy seed, the land of thy sojournment, all the land of Chanaan for a perpetual possession, and I will be their God.
Atu imyin lah na onae ram, Kanaan ram pueng nang hoi na ca catounnaw koe a yungyoe e râw lah na poe han. Kai teh ahnimae Cathut lah ka o han.
9 Again God said to Abraham: And thou therefore shalt keep my covenant, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
Hathnukkhu, Cathut ni Abraham koevah nang hoi na ca catounnaw pueng ni ka lawkkam heh na tarawi awh han.
10 This is my covenant which you shall observe, between me and you, and thy seed after thee: All the male kind of you shall be circumcised:
Hete teh kai hoi nange na ca catounnaw ni a tarawi hane lawkkam doeh. Tongpa pueng vuensoma pouh han.
11 And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, that it may be for a sign of the covenant between me and you.
Hatdawkvah, vuensom na a e tak teh kai hoi nang rahak mitnoutnae lawkkam lah ao han.
12 An infant of eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations: he that is born in the house, as well as the bought servant shall be circumcised, and whosoever is not of your stock:
Nangmouh dawkvah, na ca catounnaw totouh, ca tongpa pueng. Im dawk ka khe e thoseh, mae miphun nahoeh eiteh, alouke miphunnaw koe tangka hoi ran e hai thoseh, hnin 8 nah vuensom na a pouh han.
13 And my covenant shall be in your flesh for a perpetual covenant.
Na im dawk ka khe e hoi tangka hoi ran e tami ni vuensoma roeroe vaiteh ka lawkkam teh tak dawk yungyoe ka cak e lawkkam lah ao han.
14 The male, whose flesh of his foreskin shall not be circumcised, that soul shall be destroyed out of his people: because he hath broken my covenant.
Hatei vuensom ka a hoeh e tongpa a tak dawk e vuengsom ka a hoeh e tami teh ka miphun dawk hoi takhoe lah ao han telah atipouh. Ahni teh kaie lawkkam a raphoe toe.
15 God said also to Abraham: Sarai thy wife thou shalt not call Sarai, but Sara.
Cathut ni Abraham koevah Na yu Sarai hah, Sarai telah na kaw mahoeh, Sarah telah na kaw han toe.
16 And I will bless her, and of her I will give thee a son, whom I will bless, and he shall become nations, and kings of people shall spring from him.
Ahni hah yawhawinae ka poe vaiteh ahni lahoi nang hai ca tongpa na poe han. Yawhawinae ka poe vaiteh miphun moikapap e manu lah ao han. Athung hoi miphunnaw hane siangpahrang a tâco han.
17 Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, saying in his heart: Shall a son, thinkest thou, be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sara that is ninety years old bring forth?
Hat torei teh, Abraham ni a minhmai hoi a tabo teh a panui. Kum 100 touh e ni ca khe han namaw. Kum 90 touh e Sarah ni ca a khe han rah maw telah ati.
18 And he said to God: O that Ismael may live before thee.
Hatdawkvah, Abraham ni Cathut koe, na hmalah Ishmael mah hring yawkaw seh telah atipouh.
19 And God said to Abraham: Sara thy wife shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Isaac, and I will establish my covenant with him for a perpetual covenant, and with his seed after him.
Hatei Cathut ni telah nahoeh, na yu Sarah ni capa na khe pouh vaiteh, Isak telah a min na phung han. Ka lawkkam ka cak e lawkkam lah ao han.
20 And as for Ismael I have also heard thee. Behold, I will bless him, and increase, and multiply him exceedingly: he shall beget twelve chiefs, and I will make him a great nation.
Ishmael e kong dawk teh kai ni ka thai toe. Ahni yawhawinae ka poe toe. A ca catoun ka pungdaw sak vaiteh moikapap sak han. Ahni teh khobawi 12 touh e a na pa lah ao han. Miphun kalen poung lah ka sak han.
21 But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sara shall bring forth to thee at this time in the next year.
Hateiteh palawng atu e tueng navah, Sarah ni na khe pouh hane Isak dawk ka lawkkam ka caksak han telah atipouh.
22 And when he had left off speaking with him, God went up from Abraham.
Hottelah Abraham hoi lawk a kâpato hnukkhu Cathut teh a luen.
23 And Abraham took Ismael his son, and all that 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 forthwith the very same day, as God had commanded him.
Hatdawkvah, Abraham ni a capa Ishmael hoi a im dawk ka khe e pueng, tangka hoi a ran e pueng Abraham imthung dawk e tongpa pueng a ceikhai teh Cathut ni ahni koe a dei pouh tangcoung e patetlah hnin touh dawkvah vuensom koung a a pouh.
24 Abraham was ninety and nine years old, when he circumcised the flesh of his foreskin.
Amae vuensom a a nah Abraham teh kum 99 touh a pha toe.
25 And Ismael his son was full thirteen years old at the time of his circumcision.
Capa Ishmael, vuensom a a nah kum 13 touh a pha.
26 The selfsame day was Abraham circumcised and Ismael his son.
Hnin touh dawk, Abraham hoi a capa Ishmael teh vuensom rei rei a a roi.
27 And all the men of his house, as well they that were born in his house, as the bought servants and strangers were circumcised with him.
Amae im dawk kaawm e tongpa pueng a im dawk ka khe e, miphun alouke koe tangka hoi a ran e tongpa pueng teh, ama hoi cungtalah vuensom a a awh.
