Genesis 17
1 And he was Abram a son of ninety year[s] and nine years and he appeared Yahweh to Abram and he said to him I [am] God Almighty walk about before me and be blameless.
Abramu alipokuwa na miaka tisini na tisa, Bwana akamtokea akamwambia, “Mimi ndimi Mungu Mwenyezi; enenda mbele zangu na uishi kwa unyofu.
2 So let me make covenant my between me and between you so I may increase you with muchness muchness.
Nami nitafanya Agano langu kati yangu na wewe, nami nitakuzidisha sana sana.”
3 And he fell Abram on face his and he spoke with him God saying.
Abramu akaanguka kifudifudi, naye Mungu akamwambia,
4 I here! covenant my [is] with you and you will become a father of a multitude of nations.
“Kwa upande wangu, hili ndilo Agano langu na wewe: Wewe utakuwa baba wa mataifa mengi.
5 And not it will be called again name your Abram and it will be name your Abraham for a father of a multitude of nations I have made you.
Jina lako hutaitwa tena Abramu, bali jina lako litakuwa Abrahamu, kwa maana nimekufanya wewe baba wa mataifa mengi.
6 And I will make fruitful you with muchness muchness and I will make you into nations and kings from you they will come out.
Nitakufanya uwe na uzao mwingi sana, kwako yatatoka mataifa nao wafalme watatoka kwako.
7 And I will establish covenant my between me and between you and between offspring your after you for generations their to a covenant of perpetuity to become for you God and for offspring your after you.
Nitalithibitisha Agano langu kama Agano la milele kati yangu na wewe na wazao wako baada yako na vizazi vijavyo niwe Mungu wako na Mungu wa wazao wako.
8 And I will give to you and to offspring your after you - [the] land of sojournings your all [the] land of Canaan to a possession of perpetuity and I will become for them God.
Nchi yote ya Kanaani, unakoishi sasa kama mgeni, nitakupa kuwa milki yako milele, na uzao wako, nami nitakuwa Mungu wao.”
9 And he said God to Abraham and you covenant my you will keep you and offspring your after you for generations their.
Ndipo Mungu akamwambia Abrahamu, “Kwa upande wako, lazima ushike Agano langu, wewe na wazao wako kwa ajili ya vizazi vijavyo.
10 This [is] covenant my which you will keep between me and between you and between offspring your after you they will be circumcised of you every male.
Hili ni Agano langu na wewe pamoja na wazao wako baada yako, Agano mtakalolishika: Kila mwanaume miongoni mwenu atatahiriwa.
11 And you will be circumcised [the] flesh of foreskin your and it will become a sign of [the] covenant between me and between you.
Mtafanyiwa tohara na hii itakuwa ni alama ya Agano kati yangu na ninyi.
12 And a son of eight days he will be circumcised of you every male for generations your one born of [the] household and a purchase of silver from every son of foreignness who not [is] one of offspring your he.
Kwa vizazi vijavyo, kila mwanaume miongoni mwenu mwenye siku nane ni lazima atahiriwe, pamoja na watakaozaliwa nyumbani mwako au walionunuliwa kwa fedha kutoka kwa mgeni, wale ambao sio watoto wako.
13 Definitely - he will be circumcised [the] one born of household your and [the] purchase of silver your and it will be covenant my in flesh your to a covenant of perpetuity.
Awe amezaliwa nyumbani mwako au amenunuliwa kwa fedha yako, ni lazima watahiriwe. Agano langu katika mwili wako litakuwa ni Agano la milele.
14 And an uncircumcised - male who not he will be circumcised [the] flesh of foreskin his and it will be cut off the person that from kinspeople its covenant my he has broken.
Kila mwanaume asiyetahiriwa, ambaye hajapata tohara ya mwilini, atatengwa na watu wake, amelivunja Agano langu.”
15 And he said God to Abraham Sarai wife your not you will call name her Sarai for [is] Sarah name her.
Pia Bwana akamwambia Abrahamu, “Kwa upande wa Sarai mkeo, hutamwita tena Sarai bali jina lake litakuwa Sara.
16 And I will bless her and also I will give from her to you a son and I will bless her and she will become nations kings of peoples from her they will be.
Nitambariki na hakika nitakupatia mwana kwake. Nitambariki na kwamba atakuwa mama wa mataifa, wafalme wa mataifa watatoka kwake.”
17 And he fell Abraham on face his and he laughed and he said in heart his ¿ to a son of one hundred year[s] will he be born and or? Sarah ¿ a daughter of ninety year[s] will she bear a child.
Abrahamu akaanguka kifudifudi, akacheka na kusema moyoni mwake, “Je, mtu wa miaka mia moja aweza kuzaa mwana? Je, Sara atazaa mtoto katika umri wa miaka tisini?”
18 And he said Abraham to God if Ishmael he will live before you.
Abrahamu akamwambia Mungu, “Laiti Ishmaeli naye angeshiriki baraka yako!”
19 And he said God but Sarah wife your [is] about to bear to you a son and you will call name his Isaac and I will establish covenant my with him to a covenant of perpetuity for offspring his after him.
Ndipo Mungu akasema, “Ndiyo, lakini mkeo Sara atakuzalia wewe mwana, nawe utamwita jina lake Isaki. Nitalithibitisha Agano langu naye kama Agano la milele kwa ajili yake na wazao wake baada yake.
20 And to Ishmael I have heard you here! - I will bless him and I will make fruitful him and I will multiply him with muchness muchness two [plus] ten princes he will father and I will make him into a nation great.
Kwa upande wa Ishmaeli, nimekusikia: hakika nitambariki, nitamfanya awe na uzao mwingi na nitaongeza sana idadi yake. Atakuwa baba wa watawala kumi na wawili, nami nitamfanya awe taifa kubwa.
21 And covenant my I will establish with Isaac whom she will bear to you Sarah to the time this in the year following.
Lakini Agano langu nitalithibitisha kwa Isaki, ambaye Sara atakuzalia mwaka ujao majira kama haya.”
22 And he finished to speak with him and he went up God from with Abraham.
Wakati alipomaliza kuzungumza na Abrahamu, Mungu akapanda juu akaondoka kwa Abrahamu.
23 And he took Abraham Ishmael son his and all those born of household his and all [the] purchase of silver his every male among [the] men of [the] household of Abraham and he circumcised [the] flesh of foreskin their on [the] substance of the day this just as he had spoken with him God.
Siku ile ile, Abrahamu akamchukua Ishmaeli mwanawe na wote waliozaliwa nyumbani mwake pamoja na walionunuliwa kwa fedha zake, kila mwanaume wa nyumbani mwake, akawatahiri, kama Mungu alivyomwagiza.
24 And Abraham [was] a son of ninety and nine year[s] when was circumcised he [the] flesh of foreskin his.
Abrahamu alikuwa na umri wa miaka tisini na tisa alipotahiriwa,
25 And Ishmael son his [was] a son of thir-teen year[s] when was circumcised he [the] flesh of foreskin his.
naye Ishmaeli mwanawe alitahiriwa akiwa na umri wa miaka kumi na mitatu.
26 On [the] substance of the day this he was circumcised Abraham and Ishmael son his.
Abrahamu na Ishmaeli mwanawe walitahiriwa siku ile ile,
27 And all [the] men of household his one born of [the] household and a purchase of silver from with a son of foreignness they were circumcised with him.
Kila mwanaume nyumbani mwa Abrahamu, pamoja na wote waliozaliwa nyumbani mwake au aliyenunuliwa kwa fedha kutoka kwa mgeni, alitahiriwa pamoja naye.
