Jenèz 17

1 Alò, lè Abram te gen laj katre-ven-sèz ane, SENYÈ a te parèt a Abram. Li te di li: “Mwen menm se Bondye Toupwisan an. Mache devan mwen, e rete san fot.

When Abram was ninetie yeere olde and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said vnto him, I am God all sufficient. walke before me, and be thou vpright,

2 Mwen va etabli akò Mwen antre Mwen ak Ou, e Mwen va miltipliye ou anpil, anpil.”

And I will make my couenant betweene me and thee, and I will multiplie thee exceedingly.

3 Abram te tonbe atè sou figi li. Bondye te pale avèk li, e te di:

Then Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying,

4 “Pou Mwen, koute byen, akò Mwen avè ou a. Ou va papa a yon gran kantite nasyon.

Beholde, I make my couenant with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations,

5 Yo p ap rele ou Abram ankò, men non ou va Abraham, paske Mwen ap fè ou papa a yon gran kantite nasyon.

Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shalbe Abraham: for a father of many nations haue I made thee.

6 “M ap fè ou bay anpil fwi, Mwen va fè nasyon yo avè w, e wa yo va soti nan ou menm.

Also I will make thee exceeding fruitfull, and will make nations of thee: yea, Kings shall proceede of thee.

7 “Mwen va etabli akò Mwen antre Mwen ak ou, e desandan ou yo selon tout jenerasyon pa yo kòm yon akò k ap pou tout tan, pou M rete kòm Bondye pou ou ak desandan apre ou yo.

Moreouer I wil establish my couenant betweene me and thee, and thy seede after thee in their generations, for an euerlasting couenant, to be God vnto thee and to thy seede after thee.

8 “Mwen va ba ou avèk desandan ou yo peyi kote nou vwayaje yo, tout tè Canaan an, kòm yon posesyon k ap pou tout tan, epi Mwen va Bondye pa yo.”

And I will giue thee and thy seede after thee the land, wherein thou art a stranger, euen all the land of Canaan, for an euerlasting possession, and I will be their God.

9 Bondye te di anplis a Abraham: “Koulye a pou ou, ou va kenbe akò Mwen an, ou menm avèk desandan apre ou yo pou tout jenerasyon.

Againe God said vnto Abraham, Thou also shalt keepe my couenant, thou, and thy seede after thee in their generations.

10 Sa se akò Mwen, ke nou va kenbe antre Mwen ak nou menm, e desandan apre nou yo: chak mal pami nou va vin sikonsi.

This is my couenant which ye shall keepe betweene me and you, and thy seede after thee, Let euery man childe among you be circumcised:

11 ““Nou va sikonsi nan chè sou avan chè nou, e sa ap sèvi kòm sign akò antre Mwen ak nou.

That is, ye shall circumcise the foreskin of your flesh, and it shalbe a signe of the couenant betweene me and you.

12 Epi chak mal antre nou ki gen uit jou va sikonsi selon tout jenerasyon nou yo, e osi yon sèvitè ki fèt lakay ou, oswa ki achte avèk lajan a nenpòt etranje ki pa sòti nan desandan pa nou yo.

And euery man childe of eight dayes olde among you, shalbe circumcised in your generations, aswell he that is borne in thine house, as he that is bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seede.

13 Yon sèvitè ki fèt lakay nou, oswa ki te achte avèk lajan nou va asireman vin sikonsi; konsa akò Mwen va nan chè nou, yon akò pou tout tan.

He that is borne in thine house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needes be circumcised: so my couenant shall be in your flesh for an euerlasting couenant.

14 Men yon mal ki pa sikonsi nan avan chè li, moun sila a va vin retire de pèp li a. Li vyole akò Mwen an.”

But the vncircumcised man childe, in whose flesh the foreskin is not circumcised, euen that person shall be cut off from his people, because he hath broken my couenant.

15 Epi Bondye te di a Abraham: “Konsènan madanm ou, Saraï, ou pa pou rele li Saraï, men Sarah va non li.

Afterward God said vnto Abraham, Sarai thy wife shalt thou not call Sarai, but Sarah shalbe her name.

16 Mwen va beni li, Mwen va bay ou yon fis pa li. Alò, Mwen va beni li, e li va yon manman pou anpil nasyon. Wa a pèp yo va sòti nan li.”

And I will blesse her, and will also giue thee a sonne of her, yea, I will blesse her, and she shall be the mother of nations: Kings also of people shall come of her.

17 Nan moman sa a, Abraham te tonbe sou figi li. Li te ri e li te di nan kè l: “Èske yon pitit va fèt a yon nonm santan? Epi èske Sarah, ki gen katre-ven-diz ane va fè yon pitit?”

Then Abraham fell vpon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a childe be borne vnto him, that is an hundreth yeere olde? and shall Sarah that is ninetie yeere olde beare?

18 Konsa, Abraham te di a Bondye: “O ke Ismaël kapab viv devan Ou!”

And Abraham saide vnto God, Oh, that Ishmael might liue in thy sight.

19 Men Bondye te di: “Non, men Sarah, madanm ou an va fè yon fis, e ou va rele non li Isaac. Mwen va etabli akò Mwen an avèk li pou yon akò pou tout tan pou desandan apre li yo.

Then God saide, Sarah thy wife shall beare thee a sonne in deede, and thou shalt call his name Izhak: and I will establish my couenant with him for an euerlasting couenant, and with his seede after him.

20 “Pou Ismaël, Mwen te tande ou. Gade byen, Mwen va fè li bay anpil fwi, e li va miltipliye li anpil, anpil. Li va vin papa a douz prens yo, e Mwen va fè li vin yon gran nasyon.

And as concerning Ishmael, I haue heard thee: loe, I haue blessed him, and will make him fruitfull, and will multiplie him exceedingly: twelue princes shall he beget, and I will make a great nation of him.

21 “Men akò Mwen an, Mwen va etabli li avèk Isaac, ke Sarah va fè pou ou nan menm sezon sa a, lane pwochèn.”

But my couenant will I establish with Izhak, which Sarah shall beare vnto thee, the next yeere at this season.

22 Lè Li te fin pale avèk li, Bondye te monte kite Abraham.

And he left off talking with him, and God went vp from Abraham.

23 Alò, Abraham te pran Ismaël, fis li a, tout sèvitè ki te fèt nan kay li, tout ki te achte avèk lajan li, chak mal pami mesye lakay Abraham yo, e li te sikonsi prepis yo nan menm jou sa a jan Bondye te di li a.

Then Abraham tooke Ishmael his sonne and all that were borne in his house, and all that was bought with his money, that is, euery man childe among the men of Abrahams house, and he circumcised the foreskinne of their flesh in that selfe same day, as God had comaunded him.

24 Alò, Abraham te gen katre-ven-diz ane lè li te sikonsi nan chè pwen pye li.

Abraham also himselfe was ninetie yeere olde and nine, when the foreskinne of his flesh was circumcised.

25 Epi Ismaël, fis li a te gen trèz ane lè li te sikonsi nan chè pwen pye li.

And Ishmael his sonne was thirteene yeere olde, when the foreskinne of his flesh was circumcised.

26 Nan menm jou sa a, Abraham te sikonsi, ansanm ak fis li, Ismaël.

The selfe same day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his sonne:

27 Tout gason lakay li yo, ki te fèt lakay li, ki te achte avèk lajan nan men moun etranje, te sikonsi avèk li.

And all the men of his house, both borne in his house, and bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
