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.

And when Abram was ninety and nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said to him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.

2 Svojo zavezo bom sklenil med seboj in teboj in te silno namnožil.«

And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.

3 Abram je padel na svoj obraz in Bog je z njim govoril, rekoč:

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

4 »Kar se mene tiče, glej, moja zaveza je s teboj in ti boš oče mnogih narodov.

As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a 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.

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

6 Naredil te bom silno rodovitnega in iz tebe bom naredil narode in iz tebe bodo prišli kralji.

And I will make thee exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come forth from thee.

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.

And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to thee, and to thy seed after thee.

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.«

And I will give to thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land in which thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; 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.

And God said to Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.

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 covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every male among you shall be circumcised.

11 Obrezali boste meso svoje prednje kožice in to bo simbol zaveze med menoj in vami.

And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a sign of the covenant 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.

And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every male in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, who is not of thy seed.

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.

He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.

14 Neobrezan fantek, katerega meso njegove prednje kožice ni obrezano, naj bo ta duša iztrebljena iz svojega ljudstva; prelomil je mojo zavezo.«

And the uncircumcised male whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.

15 Bog je rekel Abrahamu: »Kar se tiče tvoje žene Saráje, njenega imena ne boš več klical Sarája, temveč Sara bo njeno ime.

And God said to Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.

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.«

And I will bless her, and give thee a son also by her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall come from her.

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?«

Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born to him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear?

18 Abraham je rekel Bogu: »Oh, da bi Izmael lahko živel pred teboj!«

And Abraham said to God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!

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.

And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.

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.‹

And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him 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 my covenant will I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to thee at this set time in the next year.

22 In prenehal je govoriti z njim in Bog se je dvignil od Abrahama.

And he finished talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.

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.

And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all that were born in his house, and all that 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.

24 Abraham je bil star devetindevetdeset let, ko je bil obrezan v mesu svoje prednje kožice.

And Abraham was ninety and nine years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

25 In njegov sin Izmael je bil star trinajst let, ko je bil obrezan v mesu svoje prednje kožice.

And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

26 Na prav isti dan sta bila obrezana Abraham in njegov sin Izmael.

In the same day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son.

27 Vsi ljudje njegove hiše, rojeni v hiši in kupljeni z denarjem od tujca, so bili obrezani z njim.

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