< Genesis 17 >
1 Ní ìgbà tí Abramu di ẹni ọ̀kàndínlọ́gọ́rùn-ún ọdún, Olúwa farahàn án, ó sì wí pé, “Èmi ni Ọlọ́run alágbára, máa rìn níwájú mi, kí o sì jẹ́ aláìlábùkù.
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 Èmi yóò sì fi ìdí májẹ̀mú mi múlẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ. Èmi yóò sì sọ ọ́ di púpọ̀ gidigidi.”
And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.
3 Abramu sì dojúbolẹ̀, Ọlọ́run sì wí fún un pé.
And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,
4 “Ní ti èmi, májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú rẹ nìyí. Ìwọ yóò di baba orílẹ̀-èdè púpọ̀.
As for me, behold, my covenant [is] with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
5 A kì yóò pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Abramu mọ́, bí kò ṣe Abrahamu, nítorí, mo ti sọ ọ́ di baba orílẹ̀-èdè púpọ̀.
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 Èmi yóò mú ọ bí si lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀, ọ̀pọ̀ orílẹ̀-èdè ni èmi yóò sì mú ti ara rẹ jáde wá, àwọn ọba pẹ̀lú yóò sì ti inú rẹ jáde.
And I will make thee exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of thee; and kings shall proceed from thee.
7 Èmi yóò sì gbé májẹ̀mú mi kalẹ̀ láàrín tèmi tìrẹ, ní májẹ̀mú ayérayé àti láàrín irú-ọmọ rẹ ní ìran-ìran wọn, láti máa ṣe Ọlọ́run rẹ àti ti irú-ọmọ rẹ lẹ́yìn rẹ.
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 Gbogbo ilẹ̀ Kenaani níbi tí ìwọ ti ṣe àjèjì ni èmi yóò fi fún ọ àti fún irú-ọmọ rẹ lẹ́yìn rẹ láéláé. Èmi yóò sì jẹ́ Ọlọ́run wọn.”
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 Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run wí fún Abrahamu pé, “Ìwọ máa pa májẹ̀mú mi mọ́, ìwọ àti irú-ọmọ rẹ lẹ́yìn rẹ àti àwọn ìran tí ó ń bọ̀.
And God said to Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee, in their generations.
10 Èyí ni májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú rẹ àti ìran rẹ lẹ́yìn rẹ, májẹ̀mú tí ẹ̀yin yóò máa pamọ́. Gbogbo ọkùnrin yín ni a gbọdọ̀ kọ ní ilà.
This [is] my covenant, which ye shall keep between me and you, and thy seed after thee; Every male-child among you shall be circumcised.
11 Ẹ̀yin yóò kọ ara yín ní ilà, èyí ni yóò jẹ́ àmì májẹ̀mú láàrín tèmi tiyín.
And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.
12 Ní gbogbo ìran tí ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn, gbogbo ọkùnrin ni a gbọdọ̀ kọ ni ilà ní ọjọ́ kẹjọ tí a bí wọn, àti àwọn tí a bí ní ilé rẹ, tàbí tí a fi owó rà lọ́wọ́ àwọn àjèjì, àwọn tí kì í ṣe ọmọ rẹ̀. Èyí yóò sì jẹ́ májẹ̀mú láéláé tí yóò wà láàrín Èmi àti irú-ọmọ rẹ.
And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every male-child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, who [is] not of thy seed.
13 Ìbá à ṣe ẹni tí a bí nínú ilé rẹ, tàbí ẹni tí o fi owó rà, a gbọdọ̀ kọ wọ́n ní ilà; májẹ̀mú mí lára yín yóò jẹ́ májẹ̀mú ayérayé.
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 Gbogbo ọmọkùnrin tí kò bá kọ ilà, tí a kò kọ ní ilà abẹ́, ni a ó gé kúrò láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀, nítorí pé ó da májẹ̀mú mi.”
And the uncircumcised male-child, whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.
15 Ọlọ́run wí fún Abrahamu pé, “Ní ti Sarai, aya rẹ̀, ìwọ kì yóò pè é ní Sarai mọ́, bí kò ṣe Sara.
And God said to Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah [shall] her name [be].
16 Èmi yóò bùkún fún un, èmi yóò sì fun ọ ní ọmọkùnrin kan nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀. Èmi yóò bùkún un, yóò sì di ìyá àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, àwọn ọba àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yóò sì ti ara rẹ̀ jáde wá.”
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 proceed from her.
17 Abrahamu sì dojúbolẹ̀, ó rẹ́rìn-ín, ó sì wí fún ara rẹ̀ pé, “A ó ha bí ọmọ fún ẹni ọgọ́rùn-ún ọdún? Sara tí í ṣe ẹni àádọ́rùn-ún ọdún yóò ha bímọ bí?”
Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall [a child] be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear?
18 Abrahamu sì wí fún Ọlọ́run pé, “Sá à jẹ́ kí Iṣmaeli kí ó wà láààyè lábẹ́ ìbùkún rẹ.”
And Abraham said to God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!
19 Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run wí pé, “Mo gbọ́, ṣùgbọ́n Sara aya rẹ̀ yóò bí ọmọkùnrin kan fún ọ, ìwọ yóò sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Isaaki, èmi yóò fi ìdí májẹ̀mú mi múlẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ ní májẹ̀mú ayérayé àti àwọn irú-ọmọ rẹ̀ lẹ́yìn rẹ̀.
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 Ṣùgbọ́n ní ti Iṣmaeli, mo gbọ́ ohun tí ìwọ wí, èmi yóò bùkún fún un nítòótọ́, èmi ó sì mú un bí sí i, yóò sì pọ̀ sí i, òun yóò sì jẹ́ baba fún àwọn ọmọ ọba méjìlá, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi yóò sì sọ ọ́ di orílẹ̀-èdè ńlá.
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 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò fi ìdí májẹ̀mú mi múlẹ̀ pẹ̀lú Isaaki, ẹni tí Sara yóò bí fún ọ ni ìwòyí àmọ́dún.”
But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to thee at this set time in the next year.
22 Nígbà tí ó ti bá Abrahamu sọ̀rọ̀ tán, Ọlọ́run sì gòkè lọ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.
And he ceased talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.
23 Ní ọjọ́ náà gan an ni Abrahamu mú Iṣmaeli ọmọ rẹ̀ àti àwọn ẹrú tí a bí ní ilé rẹ̀ àti àwọn tí ó fi owó rà, ó sì kọ wọ́n ní ilà. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì kọ gbogbo ọkùnrin tí ń bẹ ní ilé rẹ̀ ní ilà gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ Ọlọ́run.
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 Abrahamu jẹ́ ẹni ọ̀kàndínlọ́gọ́rùn-ún ọdún nígbà tí a kọ ọ́ ní ilà.
And Abraham [was] ninety and nine years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
25 Iṣmaeli ọmọ rẹ̀ jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́tàlá.
And Ishmael his son [was] thirteen years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
26 Ní ọjọ́ náà gan an ni a kọ Abrahamu ní ilà pẹ̀lú Iṣmaeli ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin.
In the same day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son.
27 Àti gbogbo ọkùnrin tí ó wà ní ilé Abrahamu, ìbá à ṣe èyí tí a bí ní ilé rẹ̀ tàbí èyí tí a fi owó rà lọ́wọ́ àlejò ni a kọ ní ilà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
And all the men of his house, born in the house, and bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
