1जब अब्राम 99 वर्ष पुगे परमप्रभु तिनी सामु प्रकट हुनुभयो। परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “म सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर हुँ। मसित सही पथ अनुशरण गर।
1And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.
2यदि तिमीले यसो गर्छौ, म हामीबीच एउटा करार तयार पार्नेछु। म तिम्रा सन्तानहरु व्यापक संख्यामा बढाउनेछु।”
2And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.
3तब अब्राम परमेश्वरअघि नतमस्तक भए र परमेश्वरले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो।
3And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,
4“यो हाम्रो करारमा मेरो भाग हो। म तिमीलाई धेरै-धेरै जाति-समूहहरूको पिता बनाउनेछु।
4As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
5तिम्रो नाउँ अब्राम रहने छैन-तिम्रो नाउँ अब्राहाम हुनेछ। म तिमीलाई यो नाउँ राख्दैछु कारण तिमीलाई म धेरै-धेरै जाति-समूहहरुको पिता बनाउँदैछु।
5Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
6म तिमीलाई धेरै-धेरै सन्तानहरू दिनेछु। नयाँ राष्ट्र र राजा तिमीबाट नै बनिनेछन्।
6And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
7म तिम्रो र मेरो बीचमा एक करार तयार बनाउँछु जुन करार तिम्रा सन्तानहरूको निम्ति पनि हुनेछ। म तिम्रो र तिम्रा सबै सन्तानहरूको परमेश्वर रहनेछु। यो करार संधैको निम्ति रही रहनेछ।
7And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
8अनि म तँ र तेरा सन्तानहरूलाई यो भूमि दिनेछु। म तलाईं कनानको सम्पूर्ण भूमि दिनेछु जसमा तँ अहिले विदेशी छस्। म यो भूमि संधैका लागि दिंदैछु अनि तेरो परमेश्वर हुन्छु।”
8And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.
9अनि परमेश्वरले अब्राहामलाई भन्नुभयो, “अब, यो चाहिं करारको तिम्रो भाग हो। अनि तिम्रा सन्तानहरूले यो मेरो करार पालन गर्नेछन्।
9And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
10तेरो र मेरो बीचको करार यही हो अनि यो सब तिम्रा सन्तानहरूको निम्ति हो। सबै छोरालाई खतना गराउनु पर्छ।
10This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.
11तेरो र मेरो बिचमा भएको करार तैंले पालन गरेको देखाउनका लागी छाला काट्नेछस्।
11And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.
12जब केटो आठ दिनको हुन्छ, तैंले उसको खतना गर्नु पर्छ। तेरो घरमा जन्मिने कमाराको प्रत्येक केटो अनि विदेशीहरूबाट किनेका सबै पुरूष कमाराहरूलाई पनि खतना गर्नु पर्छ।
12And 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 thy seed.
13यसरी तिम्रो जातिमा जन्मेको प्रत्येक केटाहरूको खतना भएको हुनु पर्छ। प्रत्येक केटाहरूको खतना भएको हुनु पर्छ। प्रत्येक केटो जो तिम्रो जाति-समूहमा जन्मिन्छ र प्रत्येक कमारा जो तिम्रो जाति-समूहमा ल्याइन्छ उसको खतना गरिनु पर्छ।
13He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
14जुन मानिसको खतना गरिंदैन, त्यसलाई बहिस्कृत गरिनु पर्छ किनभने यो मेरो करार हो जसलाई उनले उल्लंघन गरेको छ।”
14And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.
15परमेश्वरले अब्राहामलाई भन्नुभयो, “म साराईलाई नयाँ नाउँ दिनेछु अनि तिम्री पत्नि साराईको नयाँ नाउँ सारा हुनेछ।
15And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.
16म उसलाई आशीर्वाद दिनेछु। म उसलाई एउटा छोरा पनि दिनेछु अनि तँ छोराको बुबा हुनेछस्। तिनी धेरै राष्ट्रहरूको आमा हुनेछिन् अनि उबाट धेरै राजाहरू जन्मिनेछन्।”
16And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.
17परमेश्वरलाई सम्मान दर्शाउन अब्राहाम जमीनतिर मुख गरी घोप्टो भए। तर तिनले हाँस्दै आफैसित भने, “म एक सय वर्षको भएँ, अब म छोरा जन्माउन सक्तिन। अनि सारा पनि नब्बे वर्षकी भई र उनले नानी जन्माउन सक्तिन।”
17Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?
18तब अब्राहामले परमेश्वरलाई भने, “म आशा गर्छु इश्माएल जीवित रही तपाईंको सेवा गर्नेछ।”
18And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!
19परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “होइन! मैले भनी सकें तिम्री पत्नी साराले एउटा छोरो जन्माउनेछिन् जसको नाउँ तिमीले इसहाक राख्नेछौ। म त्यो सित करार गर्नेछु। त्यो करार त्यस्तो हुनेछ उसका सबै सन्तानहरूसित संधैको निम्ति बाँचिरहने छ।”
19And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
20“तैंसे इश्माएलको कुरा गरिस अनि मैले त्यो सुनें। म उसलाई आशीर्वाद दिन्छु। उसको धेरै सन्तानहरू हुनछन् अनि तिनी बाह्रजना महान राजकुमारहरूको पिता हुनेछन् र तिनको परिवारहरूबाट एउटा महान् राष्ट्र बनिनेछ।
20And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: 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.
21मेरो करार इसहाकसित गर्नेछु। इसहाक साराको छोरो हुनेछ। त्यो छोरो अर्को वर्ष यही समयमा जन्मिनेछ।”
21But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.
22परमेश्वर अब्राहामसित कुरा गरिसकेपछि स्वर्गमा जानु भयो।
22And he left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.
23परमेश्वरले अब्राहामलाई सबै पुरूष मानिसहरूको खतना गर्नु भनेको हुनाले तिनले इश्माएल र तिनको घरमा भएका सबै कमाराहरूलाई संगै भेला गराए। अब्राहामले बाहिरबाट किनेर ल्याइएका कमाराहरूलाई पनि संगै भेला गराए। अब्राहामको घरमा भएका सबै पुरूषहरूलाई भेला गराए अनि तिनीहरूको खतना गरियो। अब्राहामले तिनीहरूलाई त्यही दिन खतना गराए जुन दिन परमेश्वरले भन्नु भएको थियो।
23And 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 unto him.
24जब खतना गरियो अब्राहाम उनन्सय वर्षका र 25तिनको छोरो इश्माएल तेह्र वर्षका थिए। 26तिनको छोरो इश्माएल र तिनको एकै दिन खतना गरियो। 27त्यही दिन अब्राहामको घरमा जन्मेका कमाराहरू र किनेर ल्याइएका कमाराहरूको पनि खतना गरियो।
24And Abraham was ninety years old and nine, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
