Genesis 17
1 And Abram is a son of ninety-nine years, and YHWH appears to Abram, and says to him, “I [am] God Almighty, habitually walk before Me, and be perfect;
Cuando Abram tenía noventa y nueve años, Yahvé se le apareció y le dijo: “Yo soy el Dios Todopoderoso. Camina delante de mí y sé irreprochable.
2 and I give My covenant between Me and you, and multiply you very exceedingly.”
Haré mi pacto entre yo y tú, y te multiplicaré en gran manera”.
3 And Abram falls on his face, and God speaks with him, saying,
Abram se postró sobre su rostro. Dios habló con él, diciendo:
4 “I—behold, My covenant [is] with you, and you have become father of a multitude of nations;
“En cuanto a mí, he aquí que mi pacto es contigo. Serás el padre de una multitud de naciones.
5 and your name is no longer called Abram, but your name has been Abraham, for father of a multitude of nations have I made you;
Ya no te llamarás Abram, sino que tu nombre será Abraham, porque te he hecho padre de una multitud de naciones.
6 and I have made you exceedingly fruitful, and made you become nations, and kings go out from you.
Te haré fructificar en gran medida, y haré naciones de ti. De ti saldrán reyes.
7 And I have established My covenant between Me and you, and your seed after you, throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant, to become God to you, and to your seed after you;
Estableceré mi pacto entre mí y tú y tu descendencia después de ti por sus generaciones, como un pacto eterno, para ser un Dios para ti y para tu descendencia después de ti.
8 and I have given to you, and to your seed after you, the land of your sojournings, the whole land of Canaan, for a continuous possession, and I have become their God.”
Te daré a ti, y a tu descendencia después de ti, la tierra por la que viajas, toda la tierra de Canaán, como posesión eterna. Yo seré su Dios”.
9 And God says to Abraham, “And you keep My covenant, you and your seed after you, throughout their generations;
Dios dijo a Abraham: “En cuanto a ti, guardarás mi pacto, tú y tu descendencia después de ti por sus generaciones.
10 this [is] My covenant which you keep between Me and you, and your seed after you: every male of you [is] to be circumcised;
Este es mi pacto, que guardarás, entre tú y yo y tu descendencia después de ti. Todo varón de entre vosotros será circuncidado.
11 and you have circumcised the flesh of your foreskin, and it has become a token of a covenant between Me and you.
Será circuncidado en la carne de su prepucio. Será una señal de la alianza entre mí y vosotros.
12 And a son of eight days is circumcised by you; every male throughout your generations, born in the house, or bought with money from any son of a stranger, who is not of your seed;
Será circuncidado entre vosotros el que tenga ocho días de edad, todo varón a lo largo de vuestras generaciones, el que haya nacido en la casa o haya sido comprado con dinero a cualquier extranjero que no sea de vuestra descendencia.
13 he is certainly circumcised who [is] born in your house, or bought with your money; and My covenant has become in your flesh a perpetual covenant;
El que nazca en tu casa, y el que sea comprado con tu dinero, debe ser circuncidado. Mi pacto estará en tu carne como pacto eterno.
14 and an uncircumcised one, a male, the flesh of whose foreskin is not circumcised, indeed, that person has been cut off from his people; My covenant he has broken.”
El varón incircunciso que no esté circuncidado en la carne de su prepucio, esa alma será cortada de su pueblo. Ha roto mi pacto”.
15 And God says to Abraham, “Sarai your wife—you do not call her name Sarai, for Sarah [is] her name;
Dios dijo a Abraham: “En cuanto a Sarai, tu mujer, no la llamarás Sarai, sino que su nombre será Sara.
16 and I have blessed her, and have also given to you a son from her; and I have blessed her, and she has become nations—kings of peoples are from her.”
Yo la bendeciré, y además te daré un hijo de ella. Sí, la bendeciré, y será madre de naciones. De ella saldrán reyes de pueblos”.
17 And Abraham falls on his face, and laughs, and says in his heart, “Is one born to the son of one hundred years? Or does Sarah—daughter of ninety years—bear?”
Entonces Abraham se postró sobre su rostro y se rió, y dijo en su corazón: “¿Le nacerá un hijo a quien tiene cien años? ¿Dará a luz Sara, que tiene noventa años?”
18 And Abraham says to God, “O that Ishmael may live before You”;
Abraham dijo a Dios: “¡Oh, que Ismael viva ante ti!”
19 and God says, “Your wife Sarah is certainly bearing a son to you, and you have called his name Isaac, and I have established My covenant with him, for a perpetual covenant, to his seed after him.
Dios dijo: “No, pero Sara, tu mujer, te dará un hijo. Lo llamarás Isaac. Estableceré mi pacto con él como un pacto eterno para su descendencia después de él.
20 As for Ishmael, I have heard you; behold, I have blessed him, and made him fruitful, and multiplied him, very exceedingly; twelve princes does he beget, and I have made him become a great nation;
En cuanto a Ismael, te he escuchado. He aquí que lo he bendecido, lo haré fructificar y lo multiplicaré en gran manera. Llegará a ser padre de doce príncipes, y haré de él una gran nación.
21 and My covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah does bear to you at this appointed time in the next year”;
Pero yo estableceré mi alianza con Isaac, a quien Sara dará a luz en esta época del año próximo.”
22 and He finishes speaking with him, and God goes up from Abraham.
Cuando terminó de hablar con él, Dios se alejó de Abraham.
23 And Abraham takes his son Ishmael, and all those born in his house, and all those bought with his money—every male among the men of Abraham’s house and circumcises the flesh of their foreskin, in this very same day, as God has spoken with him.
Abraham tomó a su hijo Ismael, a todos los nacidos en su casa y a todos los comprados con su dinero; a todo varón de la casa de Abraham, y circuncidó la carne de su prepucio en el mismo día, como Dios le había dicho.
24 And Abraham [is] a son of ninety-nine years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;
Abraham tenía noventa y nueve años cuando fue circuncidado en la carne de su prepucio.
25 and his son Ishmael [is] a son of thirteen years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;
Ismael, su hijo, tenía trece años cuando fue circuncidado en la carne de su prepucio.
26 in this very same day Abraham has been circumcised, and his son Ishmael;
El mismo día fueron circuncidados Abraham e Ismael, su hijo.
27 and all the men of his house—born in the house, and bought with money from the son of a stranger—have been circumcised with him.
Todos los hombres de su casa, los nacidos en ella y los comprados con dinero a un extranjero, fueron circuncidados con él.
