Genesis 17
1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said to him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be you perfect.
Abram tenía 99 años cuando Yavé se le apareció, y le dijo: Yo soy ʼEL-Shadday. Anda delante de Mí y sé perfecto.
2 And I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.
Estableceré mi Pacto entre Yo y tú, y te multiplicaré muchísimo.
3 And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,
Entonces Abram se postró sobre su rostro. ʼElohim le habló:
4 As for me, behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations.
Mira, establezco mi Pacto contigo: Serás padre de una multitud de pueblos.
5 Neither shall your name any more be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made you.
Tu nombre ya no será Abram, sino Abraham, porque te constituí padre de una multitud de pueblos.
6 And I will make you exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come out of you.
Te haré muy fecundo. Haré naciones de ti, y de ti saldrán reyes.
7 And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your seed after you in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you, and to your seed after you.
Yo establezco mi Pacto entre Yo y tú, y después de ti con tu descendencia en sus generaciones como alianza perpetua, para ser el ʼElohim tuyo y a tu descendencia.
8 And I will give to you, and to your seed after you, the land wherein you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.
Te daré por posesión perpetua la tierra de tus peregrinaciones, toda la tierra de Canaán, y a tu descendencia. Y seré su ʼElohim.
9 And God said to Abraham, You shall keep my covenant therefore, you, and your seed after you in their generations.
Además ʼElohim dijo a Abraham: Tú guardarás mi Pacto, tú y tu descendencia en sus generaciones.
10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your seed after you; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.
Éste es mi Pacto entre Yo y ustedes, el cual guardarán tú y tu descendencia: Que todo varón entre ustedes sea circuncidado.
11 And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant between me and you.
Circuncidarán sus prepucios, y esta será la señal del Pacto entre Yo y ustedes.
12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of your seed.
Todo varón entre ustedes en todas sus generaciones será circuncidado a los ocho días de nacido, tanto el nacido en casa, como el comprado con dinero a cualquier extranjero que no sea de tu descendencia.
13 He that is born in your house, and he that is bought with your money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
Ciertamente será circuncidado el nacido en tu casa y el comprado con tu dinero. Mi Pacto estará en su cuerpo como Pacto eterno.
14 And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he has broken my covenant.
Pero el varón incircunciso, que no haya circuncidado su prepucio, será cortado de su pueblo. Quebrantó mi Pacto.
15 And God said to Abraham, As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.
También ʼElohim dijo a Abraham: A tu esposa Saray no la llamarás Saray, sino su nombre será Sara.
16 And I will bless her, and give you a son also of her: yes, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.
La bendeciré y también te daré un hijo por medio de ella. Sí, la bendeciré. Ella [será madre de] naciones. Reyes de pueblos procederán de ella.
17 Then Abraham fell on 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, that is ninety years old, bear?
Abraham se postró sobre su rostro. Pero se rió y dijo en su corazón: ¿A un hombre de 100 años le nacerá un hijo? Y Sara, ¿dará a luz a los 90 años?
18 And Abraham said to God, O that Ishmael might live before you!
Abraham dijo a ʼElohim: ¡Ojalá Ismael viva delante de Ti!
19 And God said, Sarah your wife shall bear you a son indeed; and you shall call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
Pero ʼElohim le dijo: Ciertamente tu esposa Sara te dará a luz un hijo. Tú lo llamarás Isaac, y estableceré mi Pacto con él como Pacto perpetuo para su descendencia después de él.
20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: 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.
En cuanto a Ismael, te escuché: Ciertamente lo bendeciré, lo haré fecundo y lo multiplicaré muchísimo. Engendrará 12 príncipes y haré de él una gran nación.
21 But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear to you at this set time in the next year.
Pero mi Pacto lo confirmaré con Isaac, a quien Sara te dará a luz por este tiempo, el año próximo.
22 And he left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.
Cuando terminó de hablarle, ʼElohim ascendió de [la presencia] de Abraham.
23 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 selfsame day, as God had said to him.
Entonces ese mismo día Abraham tomó a Ismael su hijo, a todos los nacidos en su casa, a todos los comprados con su dinero, y a todo varón entre las gentes de la casa de Abraham, y circuncidó su prepucio, como ʼElohim le dijo.
24 And Abraham was ninety years old and nine, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
Abraham tenía 99 años cuando circuncidó su prepucio,
25 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
y su hijo Ismael tenía 13 años cuando su prepucio fue circuncidado.
26 In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son.
Aquel mismo día Abraham se circuncidó, y también su hijo Ismael.
27 And all the men of his house, born in the house, and bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
Todos los hombres de su casa, nacidos en casa o comprados con dinero a un extranjero, fueron circuncidados con él.
