< Genesis 17 >

1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, Yahweh appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless.
Yeroo Abraam nama waggaa sagaltamii sagalii turetti Waaqayyo isatti mulʼatee akkana jedheen; “Ani Waaqa Waan Hundumaa Dandaʼuu dha; ati fuula koo dura amanamummaan deddeebiʼi; hirʼinas hin qabaatin.
2 I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”
Ani kakuu koo anaa fi si gidduu nan dhaaba; guddaas sin baayʼisa.”
3 Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying,
Abraamis adda isaatiin lafatti gombifame; Waaqnis akkana isaan jedhe;
4 “As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations.
“Kunoo, kakuun ani si wajjin galu kana: ati abbaa saba baayʼee taata.
5 Your name will no more be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.
Ati siʼachi Abraam jedhamtee hin waamamtu; waan ani abbaa saboota baayʼee si taasiseef maqaan kee Abrahaam taʼa.
6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you. Kings will come out of you.
Ani akka ati guddaa baayʼattu nan godha; akka sabni hedduun si keessaa argamu nan godha; mootonnis si keessaa ni argamu.
7 I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your offspring after you.
Ani Waaqa keetii fi Waaqa sanyii kee kan si duubaan dhufuu taʼuuf jedhee kakuu koo anaa, sii fi sanyii kee kan si duubaa, dhaloota dhufuuf jiru gidduutti kakuu bara baraa godhee nan dhaaba.
8 I will give to you, and to your offspring after you, the land where you are traveling, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. I will be their God.”
Biyya Kanaʼaan guutuu lafa ati amma orma taatee jiraattu kana ani dhaala bara baraa godhee siʼii fi sanyiiwwan kee warra si booddeetiif nan kenna; anis Waaqa isaanii nan taʼa.”
9 God said to Abraham, “As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations.
Waaqni Abrahaamiin akkana jedhe; “Ati immoo kakuu koo eeguu qabda; ati, sanyiin kee warri si duubaas dhaloota isaanii keessatti kakuu koo eeguu qabdu.
10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your offspring after you. Every male among you shall be circumcised.
Kakuun koo kan isin anaa fi siʼi gidduutti, sanyii kee kan siʼi duubaan dhufu gidduuttis eeguu qabdan kanaa dha; innis isin keessaa dhiirri hundinuu dhagna haa qabatu.
11 You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you.
Qola keessan dhagna qabadhaa; kunis kakuu anaa fi isin gidduu jiruuf mallattoo taʼa.
12 He who is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every male throughout your generations, he who is born in the house, or bought with money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring.
Isin keessaa dhiirri guyyaa saddeet guute dhagna haa qabatu; dhaloota keessan hunda keessatti dhiirri mana keetti dhalate yookaan kan nama biyya ormaa irraa maallaqa keetiin bitame hundi kan sanyii kee hin taʼin dhagna haa qabatu.
13 He who is born in your house, and he who is bought with your money, must be circumcised. My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
Mana keetti dhalatanis yookaan maallaqa keetiin bitamanis isaan dhagna haa qabatan. Kakuun koo kan foon keessan irratti godhame kun kakuu bara baraa taʼa.
14 The uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people. He has broken my covenant.”
Dhiirri dhagna hin qabatin, kan qola foon isaa dhagna hin qabatin kam iyyuu saba ofii isaa keessaa balleeffama; inni kakuu koo cabseeraatii.”
15 God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.
Waaqni ammas Abrahaamiin akkana jedhe; “Ati siʼachi niitii kee Sooraadhaan, Sooraa hin jettu; maqaan ishee Saaraa taʼa.
16 I will bless her, and moreover I will give you a son by her. Yes, I will bless her, and she will be a mother of nations. Kings of peoples will come from her.”
Ani ishee nan eebbisa; ishee irraas ilma siif nan kenna. Akka isheen haadha sabootaa taatuufis ishee nan eebbisa; mootonni sabootaas ishee keessaa argamu.”
17 Then Abraham fell on his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, “Will a child be born to him who is one hundred years old? Will Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth?”
Abrahaamis addaan gombifame; kolfees, “Nama waggaa dhibbaatiif ilmi ni dhalataa? Saaraanis waggaa sagaltamatti mucaa deessii?” jedhee yaade.
18 Abraham said to God, “Oh that Ishmael might live before you!”
Abrahaamis Waaqaan, “Maaloo utuu Ishmaaʼeel fuula kee dura naa jiraatee!” jedhe.
19 God said, “No, but Sarah, your wife, will bear you a son. You shall call his name Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his offspring after him.
Waaqnis akkana jedhe; “Tole; garuu niitiin kee Saaraan ilma siif deessi; maqaa isaas Yisihaaq jedhii moggaasi. Anis kakuu koo sanyii isaa kan isa duubaan dhufuuf kakuu bara baraa godhee isa wajjin nan dhaaba.
20 As for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly. He will become the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.
Waaʼee Ishmaaʼeel immoo ani si dhagaʼeera; kunoo ani, isa nan eebbisa; akka inni baayʼatu nan godha; guddaa isa nan baayʼisa. Inni abbaa bulchitoota kudha lamaa taʼa; anis saba guddaa isa nan godha.
21 But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.”
Kakuu koo garuu Yisihaaq isa Saaraan waggaa dhufu keessa yeroo kanatti siif deessu wajjin nan dhaaba.”
22 When he finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.
Waaqni erga Abrahaam wajjin haasaʼee fixatee booddee isa biraa ol baʼe.
23 Abraham took Ishmael his son, all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money: every male among the men of Abraham’s house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the same day, as God had said to him.
Abrahaamis guyyuma sana ilmaan isaa Ishmaaʼeelii fi warra mana isaatti dhalatan yookaan warra maallaqa isaatiin bitaman hunda, dhiira mana isaa hundumaas fuudhee akkuma Waaqni isatti himetti dhagna qabe.
24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Abrahaam yeroo dhagna qabatetti nama waggaa sagaltamii sagalii ture.
25 Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Ilmi isaa Ishmaaʼeel immoo yeroo dhagna qabatetti nama waggaa kudha sadii ture.
26 In the same day both Abraham and Ishmael, his son, were circumcised.
Abrahaamii fi ilmi isaa Ishmaaʼeel guyyuma sana dhagna qabatan.
27 All the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
Dhiirri mana Abrahaam hundinuu, warri mana isaatti dhalatan yookaan warri orma irraa maallaqaan bitamanis isa wajjin dhagna qabatan.
