Kejadian 17
1 Ketika Abram berumur sembilan puluh sembilan tahun, TUHAN menampakkan diri kepadanya dan berkata, "Akulah Allah Yang Mahakuasa. Taatilah Aku dan lakukanlah kehendak-Ku selalu.
When Abram was 99, the Lord appeared to him and told him, “I am God Almighty. Live in my presence and don't do wrong.
2 Aku akan mengikat perjanjian denganmu dan memberikan kepadamu keturunan yang banyak."
I will make my agreement between me and you, and I will give you many, many descendants.”
3 Lalu sujudlah Abram, kemudian Allah berkata,
Abram bowed down with his face to the ground, and God told him,
4 "Inilah perjanjian yang Kubuat dengan engkau: Aku berjanji bahwa engkau akan menjadi bapak leluhur banyak bangsa. Oleh karena itu namamu bukan lagi Abram, melainkan Abraham.
“Listen! This is the agreement I'm making with you. You will be the father of many nations,
so your name won't be Abram any longer. Instead, your name will be Abraham because I'm going to make you the father of many nations.
6 Aku akan memberikan kepadamu banyak anak cucu, dan di antara mereka akan ada yang menjadi raja-raja. Keturunanmu akan begitu banyak, sehingga mereka akan menjadi bangsa-bangsa.
I will make sure you have a large number of descendants. They will become many nations, and some of their kings will also come from your line.
7 Aku akan memenuhi janji-Ku kepadamu dan kepada keturunanmu, turun-temurun, dan perjanjian itu kekal. Aku akan menjadi Allahmu dan Allah keturunanmu.
I promise to continue my agreement with you, and with your descendants who come after you, for generations to come. This is an eternal agreement. I will always be your God, and the God of your descendants.
8 Aku akan memberikan kepadamu dan kepada keturunanmu, tanah ini, yang sekarang engkau diami sebagai orang asing. Seluruh tanah Kanaan akan menjadi milik anak cucumu untuk selama-lamanya dan Aku akan menjadi Allah mereka."
I will give you and your descendants the whole country of Canaan—where you've been living as a foreigner—as land to own forever, and I will be their God.”
9 Allah berkata lagi kepada Abraham, "Engkau pun harus setia kepada perjanjian ini, baik engkau maupun keturunanmu turun-temurun.
Then God told Abraham, “Your part is to keep my agreement—you and your descendants for generations to come.
10 Engkau dan semua keturunanmu yang laki-laki harus disunat.
This is my agreement with you and your descendants who come after you, the agreement you are to keep: every male among you shall be circumcised.
11 Mulai dari sekarang engkau harus menyunatkan setiap bayi laki-laki yang berumur delapan hari, termasuk para hamba yang lahir di rumahmu atau yang kaubeli. Sunat itu akan menjadi tanda dari perjanjian antara Aku dan kamu.
You are to circumcise your foreskin, and this will be the sign of the agreement between me and you.
From now and for all generations to come every male among you who is eight days old must be circumcised. This includes not only your sons but also those born in your household or bought from foreigners.
13 Setiap orang harus disunat, dan itu akan menjadi tanda lahiriah yang menunjukkan bahwa perjanjian-Ku denganmu itu kekal.
You must circumcise those born in your household or bought from foreigners as a sign in your bodies of my eternal agreement.
14 Setiap laki-laki yang tidak disunat tidak lagi dianggap anggota umat-Ku karena ia tidak berpegang pada perjanjian itu."
Any uncircumcised male who refuses circumcision will be excluded from his people because he has broken my agreement.”
15 Kemudian Allah berkata kepada Abraham, "Engkau jangan lagi memanggil istrimu Sarai; mulai sekarang namanya Sara.
Then God told Abraham, “Now about Sarai your wife. Don't call her Sarai any longer. Instead, her name will be Sarah.
16 Aku akan memberkatinya dan ia akan melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki yang akan Kuberikan kepadamu. Ya, Aku akan memberkati Sara, dan ia akan menjadi ibu leluhur bangsa-bangsa. Di antara keturunannya akan ada raja-raja."
I will bless her and I promise to give you a son by her. I will bless her so that she will become the mother of nations, and kings will be among her descendants.”
17 Lalu sujudlah Abraham, tetapi ia tertawa ketika berpikir, "Mana mungkin seorang laki-laki yang sudah berumur seratus tahun mendapat anak? Mana mungkin Sara melahirkan pada usia sembilan puluh tahun?"
Abraham bowed down with his face to the ground. But inside he was laughing, asking himself, “How on earth could I have a son at the age of one hundred? How could Sarah have a child when she is ninety?”
18 Lalu berkatalah ia kepada Allah, "Sebaiknya Ismael saja yang menjadi ahli waris saya."
Abraham said to God, “May Ishmael always live under your blessing!”
19 Tetapi Allah berkata, "Tidak. Sara istrimu akan melahirkan anak laki-laki dan engkau akan menamakannya Ishak. Aku akan setia kepada perjanjian-Ku dengan anak itu dan dengan keturunannya untuk selama-lamanya. Perjanjian itu kekal.
“No, it's your wife Sarah who is going to have a son for you!” God replied. “You are to call him Isaac. I will keep my agreement with him and his descendants as an eternal agreement.
20 Tetapi Aku mengabulkan juga permohonanmu mengenai Ismael. Karena itu dia akan Kuberkati dan Kuberi keturunan yang banyak. Ia akan menjadi leluhur dua belas kepala suku, dan keturunannya akan Kujadikan suatu bangsa yang besar.
Now about Ishmael. I heard what you said, and I will also bless him. I will make sure he has a great many descendants. He will be the father of twelve princes, and I will make him into a great nation.
21 Tetapi perjanjian-Ku akan Kuikat dengan Ishak, anakmu yang akan dilahirkan oleh Sara, tahun depan kira-kira pada waktu seperti ini."
But it's with Isaac that I will keep my agreement, the son Sarah will give birth to about this time next year.”
22 Setelah selesai berkata begitu, Allah meninggalkan Abraham.
When God had finished speaking with Abraham he left him.
23 Pada hari itu juga, Abraham mentaati Allah dan menyunatkan Ismael anaknya, dan semua orang laki-laki dalam rumahnya, termasuk para hamba yang lahir dalam rumahnya maupun yang dibelinya.
That day Abraham circumcised his son Ishmael as well as all those born in his household or purchased, in fact every male among the members of Abraham's household, just as God had told him.
24 Abraham berumur sembilan puluh sembilan tahun ketika ia disunat
Abraham was 99 when he was circumcised,
25 dan Ismael anaknya, berumur tiga belas tahun.
and his son Ishmael was thirteen.
26 Mereka disunat pada hari yang sama,
Both Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the same day.
27 bersama-sama dengan semua hamba Abraham.
All the males in Abraham's household, including those born in his household or purchased from foreigners, were circumcised with him.
