1 Mojzes 17
1 Ko je bil Abram star devetindevetdeset let, se je Gospod prikazal Abramu in mu rekel: »Jaz sem Vsemogočni Bog, hodi pred menoj in bodi popoln.
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 Svojo zavezo bom sklenil med seboj in teboj in te silno namnožil.«
I will make my agreement between me and you, and I will give you many, many descendants.”
3 Abram je padel na svoj obraz in Bog je z njim govoril, rekoč:
Abram bowed down with his face to the ground, and God told him,
4 »Kar se mene tiče, glej, moja zaveza je s teboj in ti boš oče mnogih narodov.
“Listen! This is the agreement I'm making with you. You will be the father of many nations,
5 Niti se tvoje ime ne bo več imenovalo Abram, temveč bo tvoje ime Abraham, kajti naredil sem te za očeta mnogih narodov.
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 Naredil te bom silno rodovitnega in iz tebe bom naredil narode in iz tebe bodo prišli kralji.
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 Vzpostavil bom svojo zavezo med seboj in teboj in tvojim semenom za teboj po njihovih rodovih za večno zavezo, da bom Bog tebi in tvojemu semenu za teboj.
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 Tebi in tvojemu semenu za teboj bom dal deželo, v kateri si tujec, vso kánaansko deželo, za večno posest in jaz bom njihov Bog.«
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 Bog je rekel Abrahamu: »Držal se boš moje zaveze, torej ti in tvoje seme za teboj po njihovih rodovih.
Then God told Abraham, “Your part is to keep my agreement—you and your descendants for generations to come.
10 To je moja zaveza, ki se je boste držali, med menoj in teboj in tvojim potomstvom za teboj: vsak fantek med vami naj bo obrezan.
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 Obrezali boste meso svoje prednje kožice in to bo simbol zaveze med menoj in vami.
You are to circumcise your foreskin, and this will be the sign of the agreement between me and you.
12 Kdor je star osem dni, naj bo med vami obrezan, vsak fantek po svojih rodovih, kdor je rojen v hiši ali kupljen z denarjem kateregakoli tujca, ki ni iz tvojega potomstva.
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 Kdor je rojen v tvoji hiši in kdor je kupljen z denarjem, mora biti obrezan in moja zaveza bo v vašem mesu za večno zavezo.
You must circumcise those born in your household or bought from foreigners as a sign in your bodies of my eternal agreement.
14 Neobrezan fantek, katerega meso njegove prednje kožice ni obrezano, naj bo ta duša iztrebljena iz svojega ljudstva; prelomil je mojo zavezo.«
Any uncircumcised male who refuses circumcision will be excluded from his people because he has broken my agreement.”
15 Bog je rekel Abrahamu: »Kar se tiče tvoje žene Saráje, njenega imena ne boš več klical Sarája, temveč Sara bo njeno ime.
Then God told Abraham, “Now about Sarai your wife. Don't call her Sarai any longer. Instead, her name will be Sarah.
16 Blagoslovil jo bom in ti tudi od nje dal sina. Da, blagoslovil jo bom in ona bo mati narodov, kralji ljudstev bodo iz nje.«
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 Potem je Abraham padel na svoj obraz, se zasmejal in v svojem srcu rekel: »Ali bo otrok rojen njemu, ki je star sto let? In ali bo Sara, ki je stara devetdeset let, rodila?«
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 Abraham je rekel Bogu: »Oh, da bi Izmael lahko živel pred teboj!«
Abraham said to God, “May Ishmael always live under your blessing!”
19 Bog je rekel: »Tvoja žena Sara ti bo zares rodila sina in ti boš njegovo ime klical Izak in vzpostavil bom svojo zavezo z njim za večno zavezo in s tvojim semenom za njim.
“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 In kar se tiče Izmaela, sem te uslišal: ›Glej, blagoslovil sem ga in naredil ga bom rodovitnega in ga silno pomnožil. Dvanajst princev bo zaplodil in naredil ga bom [za] velik narod.‹
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 Toda svojo zavezo bom vzpostavil z Izakom, ki ti ga bo rodila Sara ob tem določenem času, v naslednjem letu.«
But it's with Isaac that I will keep my agreement, the son Sarah will give birth to about this time next year.”
22 In prenehal je govoriti z njim in Bog se je dvignil od Abrahama.
When God had finished speaking with Abraham he left him.
23 Abraham je vzel svojega sina Izmaela in vse, ki so bili rojeni v njegovi hiši in vse, kar je kupil s svojim denarjem, vsakega moškega izmed ljudi Abrahamove hiše in obrezal meso njihove prednje kožice na prav isti dan, kakor mu je rekel Bog.
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 je bil star devetindevetdeset let, ko je bil obrezan v mesu svoje prednje kožice.
Abraham was 99 when he was circumcised,
25 In njegov sin Izmael je bil star trinajst let, ko je bil obrezan v mesu svoje prednje kožice.
and his son Ishmael was thirteen.
26 Na prav isti dan sta bila obrezana Abraham in njegov sin Izmael.
Both Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the same day.
27 Vsi ljudje njegove hiše, rojeni v hiši in kupljeni z denarjem od tujca, so bili obrezani z njim.
All the males in Abraham's household, including those born in his household or purchased from foreigners, were circumcised with him.
