< Genesis 17 >

1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him: 'I am God Almighty; walk before Me, and be thou wholehearted.
Ko je bil Abram star devetindevetdeset let, se je Gospod prikazal Abramu in mu rekel: »Jaz sem Vsemogočni Bog, hodi pred menoj in bodi popoln.
2 And I will make My covenant between Me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.'
Svojo zavezo bom sklenil med seboj in teboj in te silno namnožil.«
3 And Abram fell on his face; and God talked with him, saying:
Abram je padel na svoj obraz in Bog je z njim govoril, rekoč:
4 'As for Me, behold, My covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be the father of a multitude of nations.
»Kar se mene tiče, glej, moja zaveza je s teboj in ti boš oče mnogih narodov.
5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for the father of a multitude of nations have I made thee.
Niti se tvoje ime ne bo več imenovalo Abram, temveč bo tvoje ime Abraham, kajti naredil sem te za očeta mnogih narodov.
6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
Naredil te bom silno rodovitnega in iz tebe bom naredil narode in iz tebe bodo prišli kralji.
7 And I will establish My covenant between Me and thee and thy seed after thee throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee and to thy seed after thee.
Vzpostavil bom svojo zavezo med seboj in teboj in tvojim semenom za teboj po njihovih rodovih za večno zavezo, da bom Bog tebi in tvojemu semenu za teboj.
8 And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.'
Tebi in tvojemu semenu za teboj bom dal deželo, v kateri si tujec, vso kánaansko deželo, za večno posest in jaz bom njihov Bog.«
9 And God said unto Abraham: 'And as for thee, thou shalt keep My covenant, thou, and thy seed after thee throughout their generations.
Bog je rekel Abrahamu: »Držal se boš moje zaveze, torej ti in tvoje seme za teboj po njihovih rodovih.
10 This is My covenant, which ye shall keep, between Me and you and thy seed after thee: every male among you shall be circumcised.
To je moja zaveza, ki se je boste držali, med menoj in teboj in tvojim potomstvom za teboj: vsak fantek med vami naj bo obrezan.
11 And ye shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of a covenant betwixt Me and you.
Obrezali boste meso svoje prednje kožice in to bo simbol zaveze med menoj in vami.
12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every male throughout your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any foreigner, that is not of thy seed.
Kdor je star osem dni, naj bo med vami obrezan, vsak fantek po svojih rodovih, kdor je rojen v hiši ali kupljen z denarjem kateregakoli tujca, ki ni iz tvojega potomstva.
13 He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised; and My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
Kdor je rojen v tvoji hiši in kdor je kupljen z denarjem, mora biti obrezan in moja zaveza bo v vašem mesu za večno zavezo.
14 And the uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken My covenant.'
Neobrezan fantek, katerega meso njegove prednje kožice ni obrezano, naj bo ta duša iztrebljena iz svojega ljudstva; prelomil je mojo zavezo.«
15 And God said unto Abraham: 'As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.
Bog je rekel Abrahamu: »Kar se tiče tvoje žene Saráje, njenega imena ne boš več klical Sarája, temveč Sara bo njeno ime.
16 And I will bless her, and moreover I will give thee a son of her; yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples shall be of her.'
Blagoslovil jo bom in ti tudi od nje dal sina. Da, blagoslovil jo bom in ona bo mati narodov, kralji ljudstev bodo iz nje.«
17 Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart: 'Shall a child be born unto him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?'
Potem je Abraham padel na svoj obraz, se zasmejal in v svojem srcu rekel: »Ali bo otrok rojen njemu, ki je star sto let? In ali bo Sara, ki je stara devetdeset let, rodila?«
18 And Abraham said unto God: 'Oh that Ishmael might live before Thee!'
Abraham je rekel Bogu: »Oh, da bi Izmael lahko živel pred teboj!«
19 And God said: 'Nay, but Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son; and thou shalt call his name Isaac; and I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his seed after him.
Bog je rekel: »Tvoja žena Sara ti bo zares rodila sina in ti boš njegovo ime klical Izak in vzpostavil bom svojo zavezo z njim za večno zavezo in s tvojim semenom za njim.
20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee; behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.
In kar se tiče Izmaela, sem te uslišal: ›Glej, blagoslovil sem ga in naredil ga bom rodovitnega in ga silno pomnožil. Dvanajst princev bo zaplodil in naredil ga bom [za] velik narod.‹
21 But My covenant will I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.'
Toda svojo zavezo bom vzpostavil z Izakom, ki ti ga bo rodila Sara ob tem določenem času, v naslednjem letu.«
22 And He left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.
In prenehal je govoriti z njim in Bog se je dvignil od Abrahama.
23 And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all that were born in his house, and all that were bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the selfsame day, as God had said unto him.
Abraham je vzel svojega sina Izmaela in vse, ki so bili rojeni v njegovi hiši in vse, kar je kupil s svojim denarjem, vsakega moškega izmed ljudi Abrahamove hiše in obrezal meso njihove prednje kožice na prav isti dan, kakor mu je rekel Bog.
24 And Abraham was ninety years old and nine, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Abraham je bil star devetindevetdeset let, ko je bil obrezan v mesu svoje prednje kožice.
25 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
In njegov sin Izmael je bil star trinajst let, ko je bil obrezan v mesu svoje prednje kožice.
26 In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son.
Na prav isti dan sta bila obrezana Abraham in njegov sin Izmael.
27 And all the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money of a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
Vsi ljudje njegove hiše, rojeni v hiši in kupljeni z denarjem od tujca, so bili obrezani z njim.
