Genesis 17
1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty. Walk before me and be blameless.
Hathnukkhu, Abram teh kum 99 a pha navah, BAWIPA ni Abram koe a kamnue teh, kai teh Athakasaipounge Cathut doeh ka hmalah toun hane kawi kaawm hoeh lah awm haw.
2 I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”
Kaie lawkkamnae nang hoi ka sak vaiteh moikapap na pungdaw sak han telah atipouh.
3 Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying,
Abram ni a tabo teh Cathut ni,
4 “As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations.
Thai haw kaie lawkkamnae teh nang koe ao. Nang teh miphun moikapap e a na pa lah na o han.
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.
Nange na min hai Abram telah na kaw mahoeh toe. Abraham telah na kaw han toe, bangkongtetpawiteh nang teh miphun moikapap e na pa lah na coung han.
6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you. Kings will come out of you.
Kai ni moikapap na pungdaw sak han. Nang lahoi miphunnaw ka pung sak vaiteh, nang dawk hoi siangpahrang a tâco han.
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.
Ka lawkkamnae ka caksak vaiteh nang hoi kai rahak, na canaw hoi patuen e na catoun rahak vah a yungyoe e lawkkam lah ao han. Kai teh nang hoi na ca catounnaw e Cathut lah ka o han.
8 I will give to you, and to your offspring after you, the land where you are travelling, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. I will be their God.”
Atu imyin lah na onae ram, Kanaan ram pueng nang hoi na ca catounnaw koe a yungyoe e râw lah na poe han. Kai teh ahnimae Cathut lah ka o han.
9 God said to Abraham, “As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations.
Hathnukkhu, Cathut ni Abraham koevah nang hoi na ca catounnaw pueng ni ka lawkkam heh na tarawi awh han.
10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your offspring after you. Every male amongst you shall be circumcised.
Hete teh kai hoi nange na ca catounnaw ni a tarawi hane lawkkam doeh. Tongpa pueng vuensoma pouh han.
11 You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you.
Hatdawkvah, vuensom na a e tak teh kai hoi nang rahak mitnoutnae lawkkam lah ao han.
12 He who is eight days old shall be circumcised amongst 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.
Nangmouh dawkvah, na ca catounnaw totouh, ca tongpa pueng. Im dawk ka khe e thoseh, mae miphun nahoeh eiteh, alouke miphunnaw koe tangka hoi ran e hai thoseh, hnin 8 nah vuensom na a pouh han.
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.
Na im dawk ka khe e hoi tangka hoi ran e tami ni vuensoma roeroe vaiteh ka lawkkam teh tak dawk yungyoe ka cak e lawkkam lah ao han.
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.”
Hatei vuensom ka a hoeh e tongpa a tak dawk e vuengsom ka a hoeh e tami teh ka miphun dawk hoi takhoe lah ao han telah atipouh. Ahni teh kaie lawkkam a raphoe toe.
15 God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.
Cathut ni Abraham koevah Na yu Sarai hah, Sarai telah na kaw mahoeh, Sarah telah na kaw han toe.
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.”
Ahni hah yawhawinae ka poe vaiteh ahni lahoi nang hai ca tongpa na poe han. Yawhawinae ka poe vaiteh miphun moikapap e manu lah ao han. Athung hoi miphunnaw hane siangpahrang a tâco han.
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?”
Hat torei teh, Abraham ni a minhmai hoi a tabo teh a panui. Kum 100 touh e ni ca khe han namaw. Kum 90 touh e Sarah ni ca a khe han rah maw telah ati.
18 Abraham said to God, “Oh that Ishmael might live before you!”
Hatdawkvah, Abraham ni Cathut koe, na hmalah Ishmael mah hring yawkaw seh telah atipouh.
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.
Hatei Cathut ni telah nahoeh, na yu Sarah ni capa na khe pouh vaiteh, Isak telah a min na phung han. Ka lawkkam ka cak e lawkkam lah ao han.
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.
Ishmael e kong dawk teh kai ni ka thai toe. Ahni yawhawinae ka poe toe. A ca catoun ka pungdaw sak vaiteh moikapap sak han. Ahni teh khobawi 12 touh e a na pa lah ao han. Miphun kalen poung lah ka sak han.
21 But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.”
Hateiteh palawng atu e tueng navah, Sarah ni na khe pouh hane Isak dawk ka lawkkam ka caksak han telah atipouh.
22 When he finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.
Hottelah Abraham hoi lawk a kâpato hnukkhu Cathut teh a luen.
23 Abraham took Ishmael his son, all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money: every male amongst the men of Abraham’s house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the same day, as God had said to him.
Hatdawkvah, Abraham ni a capa Ishmael hoi a im dawk ka khe e pueng, tangka hoi a ran e pueng Abraham imthung dawk e tongpa pueng a ceikhai teh Cathut ni ahni koe a dei pouh tangcoung e patetlah hnin touh dawkvah vuensom koung a a pouh.
24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Amae vuensom a a nah Abraham teh kum 99 touh a pha toe.
25 Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Capa Ishmael, vuensom a a nah kum 13 touh a pha.
26 In the same day both Abraham and Ishmael, his son, were circumcised.
Hnin touh dawk, Abraham hoi a capa Ishmael teh vuensom rei rei a a roi.
27 All the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
Amae im dawk kaawm e tongpa pueng a im dawk ka khe e, miphun alouke koe tangka hoi a ran e tongpa pueng teh, ama hoi cungtalah vuensom a a awh.
