< 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.
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 make my covenant between me and thee: and I will multiply thee exceedingly.
Au ae tao manggatee hehelu-fufuliꞌ Ngga, fo tao tititi-nonosi mara ramaheta.”
3 Abram fell flat on his face.
Abram rena nala ma ana sendeꞌ lululangga na ma naloe langga na losa rae a. Lamatualain o olaꞌ nakandoo nae,
4 And God said to him: I AM, and my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a 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 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.
6 And I will make thee increase, exceedingly, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
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 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.
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 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.
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 Again God said to Abraham: And thou therefore shalt keep my covenant, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
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 which you shall observe, between me and you, and thy seed after thee: All the male kind of you shall be circumcised:
11 And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, that it may be for 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 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:
13 And my covenant shall be in your flesh for a perpetual covenant.
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.
Touꞌ bee nda sunat sa naa, ana nda masoꞌ sia Au hehelu-fufuli Ngga rala, ma nda dadꞌi Au atahori Ngga sa.”
15 God said also to Abraham: Sarai thy wife thou shalt not call Sarai, but Sara.
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 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.
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 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?
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 he said to God: O that Ismael may live before thee.
De ana nafadꞌe Lamatualain nae, “Lamatualain. Hela fo Ismael hambu au hata-heto ngga o, nda saa saꞌ boe.”
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.
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 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.
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 my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sara shall bring forth to thee 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 when he had left off speaking with him, God went up from Abraham.
Olaꞌ basa taꞌo naa ma, Lamatualain lao hela Abraham.
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.
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 Abraham was ninety and nine years old, when he circumcised the flesh of his foreskin.
25 And Ismael his son was full thirteen years old at the time of his circumcision.
26 The selfsame day was Abraham circumcised and Ismael his son.
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.
