Chapter 17
Gene YLT 17:1  And Abram is a son of ninety and nine years, and Jehovah appeareth unto Abram, and saith unto him, `I am God Almighty, walk habitually before Me, and be thou perfect;
Gene YLT 17:2  and I give My covenant between Me and thee, and multiply thee very exceedingly.'
Gene YLT 17:3  And Abram falleth upon his face, and God speaketh with him, saying,
Gene YLT 17:4  `I--lo, My covenant is with thee, and thou hast become father of a multitude of nations;
Gene YLT 17:5  and thy name is no more called Abram, but thy name hath been Abraham, for father of a multitude of nations have I made thee;
Gene YLT 17:6  and I have made thee exceeding fruitful, and made thee become nations, and kings go out from thee.
Gene YLT 17:7  `And I have established My covenant between Me and thee, and thy seed after thee, to their generations, for a covenant age-during, to become God to thee, and to thy seed after thee;
Gene YLT 17:8  and I have given to thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojournings, the whole land of Canaan, for a possession age-during, and I have become their God.'
Gene YLT 17:9  And God saith unto Abraham, `And thou dost keep My covenant, thou and thy seed after thee, to their generations;
Gene YLT 17:10  this is My covenant which ye keep between Me and you, and thy seed after thee: Every male of you is to be circumcised;
Gene YLT 17:11  and ye have circumcised the flesh of your foreskin, and it hath become a token of a covenant between Me and you.
Gene YLT 17:12  `And a son of eight days is circumcised by you; every male to your generations, born in the house, or bought with money from any son of a stranger, who is not of thy seed;
Gene YLT 17:13  he is certainly circumcised who is born in thine house, or bought with thy money; and My covenant hath become in your flesh a covenant age-during;
Gene YLT 17:14  and an uncircumcised one, a male, the flesh of whose foreskin is not circumcised, even that person hath been cut off from his people; My covenant he hath broken.'
Gene YLT 17:15  And God saith unto Abraham, `Sarai thy wife--thou dost not call her name Sarai, for Sarah is her name;
Gene YLT 17:16  and I have blessed her, and have also given to thee a son from her; and I have blessed her, and she hath become nations--kings of peoples are from her.'
Gene YLT 17:17  And Abraham falleth upon his face, and laugheth, and saith in his heart, `To the son of an hundred years is one born? or doth Sarah--daughter of ninety years--bear?'
Gene YLT 17:18  And Abraham saith unto God, `O that Ishmael may live before Thee;'
Gene YLT 17:19  and God saith, `Sarah thy wife is certainly bearing a son to thee, and thou hast called his name Isaac, and I have established My covenant with him, for a covenant age-during, to his seed after him.
Gene YLT 17:20  As to Ishmael, I have heard thee; lo, I have blessed him, and made him fruitful, and multiplied him, very exceedingly; twelve princes doth he beget, and I have made him become a great nation;
Gene YLT 17:21  and My covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah doth bear to thee at this appointed time in the next year;'
Gene YLT 17:22  and He finisheth speaking with him, and God goeth up from Abraham.
Gene YLT 17:23  And Abraham taketh Ishmael his son, and all those born in his house, and all those bought with his money--every male among the men of Abraham's house--and circumciseth the flesh of their foreskin, in this self-same day, as God hath spoken with him.
Gene YLT 17:24  And Abraham is a son of ninety and nine years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;
Gene YLT 17:25  and Ishmael his son is a son of thirteen years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;
Gene YLT 17:26  in this self-same day hath Abraham been circumcised, and Ishmael his son;
Gene YLT 17:27  and all the men of his house--born in the house, and bought with money from the son of a stranger--have been circumcised with him.
