No longer will you be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations.

Generation 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.

And 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.”

Abraham 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?”

BSB:
As 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.

Go eji Aisik wo m bahke limi Egbanngalung ejame, ye ji Sara bahk-e jele ka-a yabv anana.>>

But I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this time next year.”

On 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.

Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the same day.
