1When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty. Walk before Me and be blameless.
1Abram loe saning qui takawt, takawtto naah, Angraeng mah amtueng thuih; anih khaeah, Kai loe Thacak Sithaw ah ka oh; na koep thai hanah, ka hmaa ah caeh ah.
2I will establish My covenant between Me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly.”
2Kai hoi nang salakah lokmaihaih ka sak moe, nang to pop parai ah kang pungsak han, tiah a naa.
3Then Abram fell facedown, and God said to him,
3To naah Abram loe long ah akuep; Sithaw mah anih khaeah,
4“As for Me, this is My covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations.
4khenah, ka sak ih lokmaihaih loe nang khaeah oh; nang loe prae kami boih ih ampa ah na om tih.
5No longer will you be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations.
5Nang ih ahmin loe Abram, tiah kawk mak ai boeh; Abraham, tiah ni kawk tih boeh; nang loe prae kami boih ih ampa ah kang sak boeh.
6I will make you exceedingly fruitful; I will make nations of you, and kings will descend from you.
6Athaih paroeai kang thaisak moe, nang khae hoiah kami congca kang coengsak han; siangpahrangnawk doeh nang khae hoiah ni tacawt o tih.
7I will establish My covenant as an everlasting covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you.
7Kai loe na Sithaw, na caanawk ih Sithaw ah ka oh moe, nang hoi na caanawk boih nuiah dungzan khoek to ka sak ih lokmaihaih to ka caksak han.
8And to you and your descendants I will give the land where you are residing—all the land of Canaan—as an eternal possession; and I will be their God.”
8Vaihi angvin ah na ohhaih prae, Kanaan prae boih to dungzan ah toep hanah, nang hoi na hnuk ah angzo na caanawk khaeah ka paek han; kai loe nihcae ih Sithaw ah ka oh han, tiah a naa.
9God also said to Abraham, “You must keep My covenant—you and your descendants in the generations after you.
9To pacoengah Sithaw mah Abraham khaeah, Nangmah hoi na hnuk ah angzo han koi na caanawk boih mah loe, ka sak ih lokmaihaih to pazui oh.
10This is My covenant with you and your descendants after you, which you are to keep: Every male among you must be circumcised.
10Hae loe nangmah hoi na hnuk ah angzo han koi na caanawk salakah, na pazui o han ih ka lokmaihaih ah oh; nangcae thung ih nongpa boih tangzat hin aat oh.
11You are to circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and this will be a sign of the covenant between Me and you.
11Tangzat hin to aat oh; to loe kai hoi nang salakah sak ih lokmaih angmathaih ah om tih.
12Generation after generation, every male must be circumcised when he is eight days old, including those born in your household and those purchased from a foreigner—even those who are not your offspring.
12Angzo han koi na caanawk boih, na imthung ah tapen kami, to tih ai boeh loe nangmah ih acaeng na ai, phoisa hoi qan ih prae kalah kami boih, ni tazetto koep naah tangzat hin aat oh.
13Whether they are born in your household or purchased, they must be circumcised. My covenant in your flesh will be an everlasting covenant.
13Na imthung ah tapen kami doeh, phoisa hoi qan ih kami doeh, tangzat hin aah han angaih; na taksa nuiah ka sak ih lokmaihaih to dungzan khoek to om tih.
14But if any male is not circumcised, he will be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant.”
14Tangzat hin aat ai caa nongpa, tangzat hin aat ai kami loe, acaeng thung hoiah pahnawt ah; anih loe ka lokmaihaih phraekung ah ni oh, tiah a naa.
15Then God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, do not call her Sarai, for her name is to be Sarah.
15Sithaw mah Abram khaeah, na zu Sarai loe Sarai, tiah kawk hmah lai ah; anih ih ahmin loe Sarah, tiah om tih boeh.
16And I will bless her and will surely give you a son by her. I will bless her, and she will be the mother of nations; kings of peoples will descend from her.”
16Anih to tahamhoihaih ka paek han, anih mah capa maeto na sah pae tih; ue, anih to tahamhoihaih ka paek han, anih loe prae kami boih ih amno ah om tih; siangpahrangnawk doeh anih thung hoiah ni tacawt tih, tiah a naa.
17Abraham fell facedown. Then he laughed and said to himself, “Can a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? Can Sarah give birth at the age of ninety?”
17Abraham loe mikhmai akuep tathuk moe, pahnuih pacoengah, a palung thung hoiah, Saning cumvaito kaom kami mah caa sah vop tih maw? Saning qui takawt, takawtto kaom, Sarah mah caa sah vop tih maw? tiah thuih.
18And Abraham said to God, “O that Ishmael might live under Your blessing!”
18Abraham mah Sithaw khaeah, Aw Ishmael loe na hmaa ah hing nasoe, tiah a naa.
19But God replied, “Your wife Sarah will indeed bear you a son, and you are to name him Isaac. I will establish My covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him.
19Sithaw mah, Na zu Sarah mah capa na sah pae tih; anih ih ahmin to Issak, tiah sah ah; anih hoi anih hnuk ah angzo a caanawk khaeah doeh dungzan lokmaihaih to ka sak han.
20As for Ishmael, I have heard you, and I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and multiply him greatly. He will become the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.
20Ishmael han na thuih ih lok to ka thaih boeh; khenah, anih to tahamhoihaih ka paek han, athaih ka thaisak moe, pop parai ah ka pungsak han; anih loe ukkung hatlai hnetto ih ampa ah om ueloe, anih to kalen parai acaeng ah kang coengsak han.
21But I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this time next year.”
21Toe hmabang saning vaihi atue ah, Sarah mah ang sak pae han ih Issak hoiah ni lokmaihaih to ka sak han, tiah a naa.
22When He had finished speaking with Abraham, God went up from him.
22Lokthuih boih pacoengah, Sithaw loe Abraham khae hoiah caeh tahang ving.
23On that very day Abraham took his son Ishmael and all those born in his household or purchased with his money—every male among the members of Abraham’s household—and he circumcised them, just as God had told him.
23To na niah Abraham mah a capa Ishmael, a imthung ah tapen kaminawk boih, phoisa hoi qan ih kaminawk boih, imthung ah kaom nongpa boih to kawk moe, Sithaw mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, tangzat hin to aahsak.
24So Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised,
24Tangzat hin aah naah, Abraham loe saning qui takawt, takawtto oh boeh.
25and his son Ishmael was thirteen;
25A capa Ishmael loe saning hatlai thumto oh boeh.
26Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the same day.
26Abraham hoi a capa Ishmael loe to na niah tangzat hin aah hoi hmaek.
27And all the men of Abraham’s household—both servants born in his household and those purchased from foreigners—were circumcised with him.
27Abraham im ah kaom nongpa boih, anih im ah tapen nongpa boih, prae kalah ah phoisa hoi qan ih kaminawk boih, angmah hoi nawnto tangzat hin aah o.
