Genesis 17

1 And it came to pass that, when Abram was ninety and nine years old, Yahweh appeared unto Abram, and said unto him, I, am GOD Almighty, —Walk, thou before me and become thou blameless:

Sa’ad da Abram ya yi shekaru 99, sai Ubangiji ya bayyana a gare shi ya ce, ni “Ni ne Allah Maɗaukaki, ka yi tafiya a gabana ka kuma zama marar abin zargi.

2 That I may set my covenant betwixt me and thee, And may multiply thee, exceedingly.

Zan tabbatar da alkawarina tsakanina da kai, zan kuma ƙara zuriyarka ta yi yawa.”

3 And Abram fell on his face, —and God spake with him, saying:

Abram ya rusuna da fuskarsa har ƙasa, Allah kuma ya ce masa,

4 As for me, lo! my covenant is with thee, —So shalt thou become—father of a multitude of nations;

“Gare ni kam, wannan shi ne alkawarina da kai, za ka zama mahaifin al’ummai masu yawa.

5 And thy name shall no more be called Abram, —but thy name shall become Abraham, for father of a multitude of nations, have I appointed thee;

Ba za a ƙara kiranka Abram ba; sunanka zai zama Ibrahim, gama na mai da kai uban al’ummai masu yawa.

6 And I will make thee fruitful, exceedingly, and grant thee to be nations, —Yea kings, out of thee, shall come forth;

Zan sa ka azurta sosai, zan yi al’ummai daga cikinka, sarakuna kuma za su fito daga cikinka,

7 And I will confirm my covenant betwixt me and thee and thy seed after thee to their generations for an age-abiding covenant, —to become to thee a God, and to thy seed after thee;

zan kafa alkawarina kamar madawwamin alkawari tsakanina da kai da kuma zuriyarka bayanka har tsararraki masu zuwa, in zama Allahnka da kuma Allahn zuriyarka a bayanka.

8 And I will give to thee and to thy seed after thee the land of thy sojournings—all the land of Canaan, for an age-abiding possession—And I will be to them a God.

Dukan ƙasar Kan’ana inda kake baƙo a yanzu, zan ba da ita a matsayin madawwamiyar mallaka gare ka da kuma zuriyarka a bayanka, zan kuma zama Allahnsu.”

9 And God said unto Abraham, But, as for thee, my covenant, must thou keep, thou and thy seed after thee, to their generations: —

Sa’an nan Allah ya ce wa Ibrahim. “Kai fa, sai ka kiyaye alkawarina, kai da zuriyarka bayanka, har tsararraki masu zuwa.

10 This, is my covenant which ye shall keep, betwixt me and you, and thy seed after thee, —To circumcise to you every male:

Wannan shi ne alkawarina da kai da kuma zuriyarka a bayanka, alkawarin da za ka kiyaye ke nan. Kowane namiji a cikinku kuwa za a yi masa kaciya.

11 So shall ye be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin, —So shall it become a sign of a covenant, betwixt me and you.

Za ku yi kaciya, za tă kuma zama alamar alkawari tsakanina da kai.

12 And he that is eight days old, shall be circumcised to you every male to your generations, —he that is born of the house, and he that is bought with silver of any son of a stranger, who is, not of thy seed,

Daga yanzu duk namijin da aka haifa a cikinku za a yi masa kaciya a rana ta takwas har dukan zamananku, ko haifaffen gida ne, ko sayayye da kuɗi daga kowane baƙo wanda ba na zuriyarku ba.

13 He must surely be circumcised, born of thy house or bought with thy silver, —So shall my covenant be in your flesh for an age-abiding covenant.

Ko haifaffe a gidanka ko an sayo da kuɗi, dole a yi musu kaciya. Alkawarina cikin jikinku zai kasance madawwamin alkawari.

14 But, as for the uncircumcised male who shall not be circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, —that person shall be cut off from among his people, —my covenant, hath he made void.

Kowane namijin da ba a yi masa kaciya a jiki ba, za a fid da shi daga cikin mutanensa; domin ya karya alkawarina.”

15 And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, —but, Sarah, is her name;

Allah ya kuma ce wa Ibrahim, “Game da Saira matarka kuwa, ba za ka ƙara kiranta Saira ba, sunanta zai zama Saratu.

16 and I will bless her, yea moreover will give—from her—to thee, a son, —And I will bless her, and she shall become nations. Kings of peoples, from her, shall arise.

Zan sa mata albarka, ban da haka ma, zan ba ka ɗa ta wurinta, zan sa mata albarka, za tă kuwa zama mahaifiyar al’ummai; sarakunan mutane za su fito daga gare ta.”

17 And Abraham fell on his face and laughed, —and said in his heart To one a hundred years old, shall a child be born? And shall even Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth?

Ibrahim ya rusuna da fuskarsa har ƙasa, ya yi dariya, ya ce wa kansa, “Za a haifi ɗa wa mutum mai shekaru ɗari? Saratu za tă haifi ɗa tana da shekaru tasa’in?”

18 And Abraham said unto God, —Oh that, Ishmael, might live before thee!

Ibrahim ya kuma ce wa Allah, “Me zai hana a dai bar Ishmayel kawai yă gāji alkawarin nan da ka yi mini.”

19 And God said—Truly, Sarah thy wife, is about to bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name, Isaac, —and I will establish my covenant with him as an age-abiding covenant, to his seed after him.

Sai Allah ya ce, “Duk da haka dai, matarka Saratu za tă haifi maka ɗa; za ka kuma kira shi Ishaku. A kansa zan tabbatar da madawwamin alkawarina, da kuma ga zuriyarsa da za su zo bayansa.

20 Yet as for Ishmael, I have heard thee; lo! I have blessed him and will make him fruitful, and multiply him, exceedingly, —twelve princes, shall he beget, and I will grant him to be a great nation;

Game da Ishmayel kuwa, na ji ka. Tabbatacce zan albarkace shi, zan sa yă azurta, zai kuma ƙaru ƙwarai. Zai zama mahaifin masu mulki goma sha biyu, zan kuma maishe shi babban al’umma!

21 But my covenant, will I establish with Isaac, —whom Sarah shall bear, to thee, by this set time, in the next year.

Amma dai zan kafa alkawarina da Ishaku wanda Saratu za tă haifa maka war haka shekara mai zuwa.”

22 And he left off speaking with him, —and God went up from Abraham.

Da ya gama magana da Ibrahim, sai Allah ya tashi daga gare shi.

23 So Abraham took Ishmael his son and all born of his house and all bought with his silver—every male among the men of the house of Abraham, —and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin on this selfsame day, according to that which God had spoken with him.

A wannan rana, Ibrahim ya ɗauki ɗansa Ishmayel da dukan waɗanda aka haifa cikin gidansa, da waɗanda aka sayo da kuɗinsa, ya kuwa yi wa kowane namiji a cikin gidansa kaciya kamar yadda Allah ya faɗa masa.

24 Now Abraham, was ninety-nine years old, —when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

Ibrahim yana da shekara tasa’in da tara sa’ad da aka yi masa kaciya,

25 And Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

Ishmayel ɗansa kuma yana da shekara goma sha uku.

26 On this selfsame day, was Abraham circumcised, —and Ishmael his son;

Aka yi wa Ibrahim da ɗansa Ishmayel kaciya a rana ɗaya.

27 and, all the men of his house, born of his house, and bought with silver from the son of a stranger, were circumcised with him.

Aka yi wa kowane namiji a gidan Ibrahim kaciya, da waɗanda aka haifa a gidansa, da waɗanda aka sayo da kuɗi daga baƙo.
