1जब अब्राम 99 वर्ष पुगे परमप्रभु तिनी सामु प्रकट हुनुभयो। परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “म सर्वशक्तिमान परमेश्वर हुँ। मसित सही पथ अनुशरण गर।
1And Abram was ninety-nine years old, when Jehovah appeared to Abram, and said to him, I [am] the Almighty ùGod: walk before my face, and be perfect.
2यदि तिमीले यसो गर्छौ, म हामीबीच एउटा करार तयार पार्नेछु। म तिम्रा सन्तानहरु व्यापक संख्यामा बढाउनेछु।”
2And I will set my covenant between me and thee, and will very greatly multiply thee.
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।
4It is I: behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of a multitude of nations.
5तिम्रो नाउँ अब्राम रहने छैन-तिम्रो नाउँ अब्राहाम हुनेछ। म तिमीलाई यो नाउँ राख्दैछु कारण तिमीलाई म धेरै-धेरै जाति-समूहहरुको पिता बनाउँदैछु।
5And thy name shall no more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of a multitude of nations have I made thee.
6म तिमीलाई धेरै-धेरै सन्तानहरू दिनेछु। नयाँ राष्ट्र र राजा तिमीबाट नै बनिनेछन्।
6And I will make thee exceedingly 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 to 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 give to thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojourning, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be a God to them.
9अनि परमेश्वरले अब्राहामलाई भन्नुभयो, “अब, यो चाहिं करारको तिम्रो भाग हो। अनि तिम्रा सन्तानहरूले यो मेरो करार पालन गर्नेछन्।
9And God said to Abraham, And [as for] thee, thou shalt keep my covenant, 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 -- that every male among you 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 [that] shall be a sign of the covenant between 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 at eight days old shall every male in your generations be circumcised among you -- he who is born in the house, and he who is bought with money, any stranger who 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 who is born in thy house, and he who is bought with thy money, must 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 male who hath not been circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his peoples: he hath broken my covenant.
15परमेश्वरले अब्राहामलाई भन्नुभयो, “म साराईलाई नयाँ नाउँ दिनेछु अनि तिम्री पत्नि साराईको नयाँ नाउँ सारा हुनेछ।
15And God said to Abraham, [As to] Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name.
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 I will give thee a son also of her; and I will bless her, and she shall become nations: kings of peoples 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।”
17And Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall [a child] be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear?
18तब अब्राहामले परमेश्वरलाई भने, “म आशा गर्छु इश्माएल जीवित रही तपाईंको सेवा गर्नेछ।”
18And Abraham said to God, Oh 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 indeed bear thee a son; and thou shalt call his name Isaac; and I will establish my covenant with him, for an everlasting covenant for 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 for Ishmael I have heard thee: behold, I will bless him, and will make him fruitful, and will very greatly multiply him; 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, whom Sarah shall bear to thee at this appointed 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 who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money -- every male among the people of Abraham's house -- and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin on that same day, as God had said to 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-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
25[This verse may not be a part of this translation]
25And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
26[This verse may not be a part of this translation]
26In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son;
27[This verse may not be a part of this translation]
27and all the men of his house, born in his house, or bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
