< Genesis 17 >

1 When Abram was 99 years old, Yahweh appeared to him again and said to him, “I am God Almighty. I want you to live in a way that I will regard you as someone that cannot be criticized.
Abramu'a 99ni'a zagegafu higeno, Ra Anumzamo'a agrite efore huno amanage huno asami'ne, Nagra Hihamu'ane Anumzamo'na kagrira negasmue. Nagri namagenentanku fatgo kavu'kava hunka manio.
2 If you do that, I will make an agreement with you in which I will promise to enable you to have very many descendants.” [MTY]
Hanki Nagri huvempa keni'amo'a amu'nonti'afi me'nena, Nagra kagripinti vahera zamazeri hakare hugahue.
3 Abram prostrated himself with his face on the ground. Then God said to him,
Abramu'a avugosaregati mopafi mase'negeno, Anumzamo'a mago'ene amanage huno asami'ne,
4 “Listen to this agreement that I am making with you: People of many nations will be your descendants.
Nagra kagrane huhagerafi huvempa ke huankino, hakare'a kokantega vahera kagripinti fore hu'za ku'ma ante'za mani avitesnagenka, kagra nafazami'za hugahane.
5 And no longer will your name be Abram. Instead, your name will be Abraham, [which means ‘father of many nations,’] because the people of many nations will descend from you.
Hagi Abramuge hu'za mago'enena kagia ohegahaze. Menina Abrahamuge hu'za hugahaze. Na'ankure kagra hakare'a veamokizmi nafazamiza hugahane.
6 I will enable you to have very many descendants, and I will cause them to become great nations/people-groups, and some of your descendants will become kings.
Nagra kazeri ra hanena kagripinti hakare'a kokankoka vahera fore nehanageno, kini vahe'enena fore hugahaze.
7 I will make this agreement between me and you and your descendants. It will be an everlasting agreement to be in effect for many generations. This agreement is that I will be your God, and the God of your descendants.
Hanki'na Nagra amunonti'afi huhagerafi huvempage huankino, ama ana mevava huvempa ke'mo'a, kagrite'ene kagripinti'ma fore hanaza vahete'ene henkama fore hunante anante hu'za vanaza vahete'enena meno nevanige'na Nagra kagri Anumza mani'nena, kagripinti'ma fore hu anante ante'ma hu'za vanaza vahe'mokizmi Anumza manigahue.
8 I will give to you and to your descendants the land through which you are now traveling, all of the Canaan region. It will be an everlasting possession for your descendants, and I will be the God that they [will worship].”
Kagri'ene, kagehe'ine, henkama fore hanamokizmine kragama emanina Kenani mopa tamivaneroe. Ana mopamo'a tamagriza seno mevava nehina, Nagra zamagri Anumza manigahue.
9 Then God said to Abraham, “Now you must obey [your part of] the agreement that I am making with you, and your descendants must also obey it, for all generations.
Hagi Anumzamo'a mago'ene amanage huno Abrahamuna asami'ne, Kagrane mofavrezaga ka'ane, kase anante anante hanamozanena huvempa keni'a amage anteho.
10 This is the agreement that I am making, between myself and you and all your descendants: Every male among you must be circumcised.
Nagranema huhagerafi'nonku amanahu hugahaze, ne' mofavretmia mika zamagozamofo amega anoma'a taga hutregahaze. Henkama fore hu' anante anante'ma hu'za vanaza vahe'mo'zanena ana zanke hugahaze.
11 (Cutting the foreskins of/Circumcising) them will be the sign [that you have accepted] the agreement I am making with you.
Abrahamuga, Nagrane huhagerafi'noa zamofo avame'zama mesiana, kagozamofo amega noma'a taga hutro.
12 Every male child among you must be circumcised when he is eight days old, in all future generations. That includes baby boys in your household or those born from slaves that have been bought, and baby boys of foreigners who live among you but do not belong to your household.
Hagi maka ne' mofavre'ma kasentesamokizmia 8ti zage gnare, knane knanena henkama fore hanaza mofavre'mokizmi zamufga taga hugahaze. Nonka'afima eri'za vahe'mo'ma kasentesia vahe'pinti'ene zagoreti'ma mizasesana vahe'ma aruregati e'nesia vahe'enena zamufa taga huzmantegahaze.
13 It does not matter whether their parents are members of your household or slaves that have been bought; they must all be circumcised. Your bodies will have this mark to show [you have accepted] this everlasting agreement I am making.
Kagri nompima mani'ne'za kasentenesa vahepi, zagoreti miza hu'nenaza vahe'mo'zanena, zamagoza anoma'a taga hugahaze. E'inama hanaza zamo'a Nagranema huhagerafi'noa zamofo avame'za zamagri zamufgarera mevava hugahie.
14 You must expel from your community any male who has not been circumcised, because [by not being circumcised] that person has disobeyed my agreement.”
Hagi agoza anoma taga osanimo'a, Nagranema huhagerafi'noa kea ruhantaginigu, agrira naga'afintira avre atregahaze.
15 God also said to Abraham, “As for Sarai, your wife, you must not call her Sarai any longer. [Since I changed your name, I will change her name also]. Her name will now be Sarah.
Hanki Anumzamo'a amanage huno Abrahamuna asami'ne, kotera negnarona Sarai'e hu'nane. Hagi menina kasefa agi'a Sera'e hunka hugahane.
16 I will bless her, and she will surely give birth to a son for you. And I will bless her so much that she will be the ancestor of people of many nations. Kings of some people-groups will be descended from her.”
Nagra Serana asomu huntesugeno, agra mofavre eri fore hunegamina, asomu huntanena hakare vahe'mokizmi antazmiza nehanigeno, agripinti kini vahera fore hugahaze.
17 Abraham prostrated himself with his face on the ground [to show respect to God]. But then he laughed as he said to himself, “Can a man who is a 100 years old become a father of a son? And since Sarah is 90 years old, how can she bear a child?”
Abrahamu'a rena reno kepri huno agu'afina kizanereno anage hu'ne, Nagra 100'a zagegafu hugeno Sera'a 90'a zagegafu higeta, ko' ozafa tavava re'noanki, inankna huta mofavre kasentenaku nehukeno nehie?
18 Then Abraham said to God, “Perhaps you will let Ishmael receive your blessing [and inherit all I possess].”
Abrahamu'a amanage huno Anumzamofo kenona hu'ne, knare Ismaeli'a kavure mani'neno asomura erigahie!
19 Then God replied, “[No!] Your wife Sarah will bear a son for you. You must name him Isaac. I will establish my agreement with him, one which will be an everlasting agreement for him and his descendants.
Hianagi Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, A'o tamage huno negnaro Sera'a mofavre kasentesigenka, agi'a Aisaki'e hunka antegahane. Nagra agrane huvempa hanugeno ana huvempa kemo'a agrite'ene, agripinti'ma henkama fore hu anante anante'ma hanaza vahete'ene mevava huno vugahie.
20 As for Ishmael, I have heard what you asked me to do for him. I will bless him so that he also will have many descendants. Among his descendants will be rulers of twelve nations. And I will cause his [descendants] [MTY] to also become a great nation.
Ismaeli kazigagu'ma nantahima kanana, hago antahuanki'na Nagra asomu huntesugeno, agripintira rama'a vahe fore hu'za manigahaze. Ana nehanageno 12fu'a kva vahe'mokizmi nezmafaza hugahie. Nagra agehemokizmia zamazeri hankavetisuge'za hanvenentake vahe manigahaze.
21 But Isaac, the son whom Sarah will give birth to at this time next year, is the one with whom I will establish my agreement.”
Hianagi Nagra hu hagerafi huvempa ke'ni'a, Sera'ma kasentesia mofavre Aisakinte eri hanavetigahue. Ama ana knare anaga'a kafufi kasentegahie.
22 When God finished talking to Abraham, God disappeared from his sight.
Anumzamo'a anage huno Abrahamu asmiteno, atreno vu'ne.
23 On that same day, Abraham took his son Ishmael and all the males that were in his household, including the sons of all the slaves he had bought, and circumcised them. He cut off their foreskins, just as God told him to do.
Abrahamu'a Ismaeline, eri'za vahe'amokizmine zamazerino zamagoza anona taga huvagare zamante'ne. Agranema manine'za kasezmante'naza eri'za vahe'ane, ru mopareti miza se'nea vahe'ane miko zamagoza anona taga huzmante'ne. Anumzamo'ma asmi'nea kante anteno ana zupage'za taga hu'ne.
24 Abraham was 99 years old when (he was circumcised/someone circumcised him),
Abrahamu'a 99ni'a zagegafu manino ozafa reteno, avufga taga hu'ne.
25 and Ishmael was thirteen years old when Abraham circumcised him.
Hanki Ismaeli'a 13ni'a zagegafu huno nehazave seno manigeno avufga taga hu'ne.
26 On that very day Abraham and his son, Ishmael were circumcised.
E'i ana zupage Abrahamune, Ismaelikizni zanavufga taga huzanante'ne.
27 And all the males in his household, the ones who had been born there and those who had been bought from foreigners, were also circumcised.
Miko eri'za vahe'ane, mofavrezimine agrane nemaniza kasente'nazampi, arurega vahe zagoreti miza sezmante'nea vahe'ene ana mika zamagoza anona taga hu'naze.
