Genesis 17 (WLO)

1Wakutuuna Abram akoʼumurumo 99 tao, KAWASANA OPU apatiumbaakamo karona i incia tee afirimani i incia, "Iakumo Aulataʼala Mokokuasana, dhadhimo i aroaku inda tee momadhakina.When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty. Walk before Me and be blameless.

2Iaku bhekupadhaangia pojanjia tee ingkoo, tee Iaku bhekupewau siwulumu abhari mpuu."I will establish My covenant between Me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly.”

3Saanampuu asujumo Abram. Kasiimpomo Aulataʼala afirimani i incia,Then Abram fell facedown, and God said to him,

4"Minaaka i Iaku, siimo pojanjiaku tee ingkoo: Ingkoo bheumembali ama to manga lipu bhari.“As for Me, this is My covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations.

5Saromu mencuanamo Abram, tabeana Ibrahim, roonamo Iaku padhamo kupamembaliko ama to bhari lipu.No longer will you be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations.

6Iaku bhekupamembaliko ukoana-ana koopu-opua abhari mpuu. Minaaka i ingkoo bhekupamembalia manga lipu, tee manga raja bheaumba minaaka i siwulumu.I will make you exceedingly fruitful; I will make nations of you, and kings will descend from you.

7Iaku bhekupasahamea pojanjiaku i tanga-tangata, Iaku tee ingkoo tee siwulumu naile itu, torotorosu amembali saangu pojanjia molagina saʼumurua, siitu ande Iaku bhekumembali Aulataʼalamu tee Aulataʼala siwulumu.I 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.

8I karomu tee manga siwulumu naile itu bhekudhawuakea lipu sii tampana umboore mboomo dhaga, sumaimo bhari-bharia Tana Kanaan, membali saangu pewauamu saʼumurua. Iaku uka bhekumembali Aulataʼalana manga incia."And 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.”

9Firimanina Aulataʼala uka i Ibrahim, "Minaaka i ingkoo, tabeana ukeniakea malape pojanjiaku, malape ingkoo atawa siwulumu naile itu saʼumurua.God also said to Abraham, “You must keep My covenant—you and your descendants in the generations after you.

10O siimo pojanjiaku to ikeniakamu matangka, pojanjia i tanga-tangata, Iaku tee ingkoo tee manga siwulumu naile itu: Bhari-bharia umane i tanga-tangamiu tabeana atotandaki.This is My covenant with you and your descendants after you, which you are to keep: Every male among you must be circumcised.

11Ingkomiu tabeana utotandaki, tee incia itu bheamembali tanda pojanjiaku i tanga-tangata, Iaku tee ingkomiu.You are to circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and this will be a sign of the covenant between Me and you.

12Satorosuna, bhari-bharia anaana umane mokoʼumuruna walu eo i tanga-tangamiu tabeana utandakia. Adati incia sii atopewau mencuana soo to bhari-bharia umane siwulumiu karomiu, maka uka to manga umane ipalaahirina minaaka i bhatua i bhanuamiu tee uka manga bhatua ialimiu minaaka i mia dhaga tee moomini mencuana siwulumiu.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.

13Anaana umane molaahirina i bhanuamiu atawa ialimiu tee doi tabeana utandakia. Mboo siimo pojanjiaku i nuncana karomu bheatandaia pojanjia sii alagi saʼumurua.Whether they are born in your household or purchased, they must be circumcised. My covenant in your flesh will be an everlasting covenant.

14O umane inda mototandakina, siitumo inda atodhodho kulina tabeana apabinasea minaaka i tanga-tanga lipuna. Incia amalinguakamea pojanjiaku."But if any male is not circumcised, he will be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant.”

15Kasiimpomo Aulataʼala afirimani i Ibrahim, "To Sarai, bhawinemu, bholimo usarongiakea pendua tee sarona Sarai, tabeana Sarah, siitumo sarona mobhaauna.Then God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, do not call her Sarai, for her name is to be Sarah.

16Iaku bhekubarakatia, tee alaloi incia uka Iaku bhekudhawuakako samia anaana umane. Iaku bhekubarakatia, tee incia bheamembali inana manga lipu. Manga rajana lipu bheaumba minaaka i siwuluna."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.”

17Kasiimpo asujumo Ibrahim tee apotawa tee apogau i nuncana ngangarandana, "Buaka amembali samia umane mokoʼumuruna 100 tao akoanaakamo samia anaana? Amembali buaka Sarah, mokoʼumuruna 90 tao, apalaahiri anaana?"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?”

18Kasiimpo apogaumo Ibrahim i Aulataʼala, "A, sio-siomo Ismail alaenga adhadhi i aroamu!"And Abraham said to God, “O that Ishmael might live under Your blessing!”

19Firimanina Aulataʼala, "Satotuuna Sarah, bhawinemu, bheapalaahirimo samia anaana umane to karomu. Usarongiakea incia Ishak. Iaku bhekupasahamea pojanjiaku tee incia amembali saangu pojanjia saʼumurua to siwuluna.But 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.

20Sainamo to Ismail, Iaku padhamo kurangoa iemanimu. Satotuuna, Iaku bhekubarakatia tee kupamembalia akoana-ana koopu-opua tee kupamembalia siwuluna abhari mpuu. Incia bheamembali opuana minaaka i sapulu rua mia raja, tee Iaku bhekupamembalia saangu lipu momaoge.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.

21Maka pojanjiaku bhekupatotapuakea tee Ishak, ipalaahirina Sarah to ingkoo i wakutuu mboo sii i tao moumbana."But I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this time next year.”

22Sapadhana afirimani i Ibrahim, Aulataʼala uka abholimea.When He had finished speaking with Abraham, God went up from him.

23Kasiimpomo Ibrahim akembamo Ismail, anana, tee bhari-bharia mia molaahirina i bhanuana, tee uka bhari-bharia mia ialina tee doi -- bhari-bharia umane i tanga-tangana antona bhanuana. I eo incia sumai uka, incia adhodhomea kulina to atandaki manga incia, mboomo ifirimaniakana Aulataʼala i incia.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.

24Ibrahim akoʼumuru 99 tao i wakutuuna atotandaki,So Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised,

25sainamo Ismail, anana, akoʼumuru 13 tao wakutuuna atotandaki.and his son Ishmael was thirteen;

26I eo incia sumai uka, Ibrahim tee Ismail, anana, atotandaki.Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the same day.

27Bhari-bharia umane modhaangiana i bhanuana, malape molaahirina i bhanuana atawa ialina tee doi minaaka i mia dhaga, atotandaki apobhawa-bhawa tee incia.And all the men of Abraham’s household—both servants born in his household and those purchased from foreigners—were circumcised with him.
