¹A keď bolo Abramovi deväťdesiatdeväť rokov, ukázal sa mu Hospodin a riekol mu: Ja som El-šaddaj. Choď predo mnou a buď dokonalý!

¹When Abram was ninety-nine years old, Yahweh appeared to Abram, and said to him, “I am God Almighty. Walk before me, and be blameless.

²A dám svoju smluvu, aby bola medzi mnou a medzi tebou, a rozmnožím ťa prenáramne.

²I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.”

³Vtedy padol Abram na svoju tvár, a Bôh hovoril s ním a riekol:

³Abram fell on his face. God talked with him, saying,

⁴Ja som, hľa, moja smluva je s tebou, a budeš otcom mnohých národov.

⁴“As for me, behold, my covenant is with you. You will be the father of a multitude of nations.

⁵Ani sa už viacej nebude volať tvoje meno Abram, ale tvoje meno bude Abrahám, lebo som ťa učinil otcom mnohých národov.

⁵Neither will your name any more be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.

⁶Učiním to, aby si sa náramne rozplodil a učiním ťa v národy a kráľovia vyjdú z teba.

⁶I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you. Kings will come out of you.

⁷A postavím svoju smluvu medzi sebou a medzi tebou a medzi tvojím semenom po tebe, po ich pokoleniach, za večnú smluvu, aby som ti bol Bohom i tvojmu semenu po tebe.

⁷I will establish my covenant between me and you and your seed after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your seed after you.

⁸A dám tebe i tvojmu semenu po tebe zem tvojho pohostínstva, celú zem Kanaánovu za večné državie, a budem im Bohom.

⁸I will give to you, and to your seed after you, the land where you are traveling, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. I will be their God.”

⁹A potom riekol Bôh Abrahámovi: A ty budeš zachovávať moju smluvu, ty i tvoje semeno po tebe, po svojich pokoleniach.

⁹God said to Abraham, “As for you, you will keep my covenant, you and your seed after you throughout their generations.

¹⁰Toto je moja smluva, ktorú budete zachovávať, medzi mnou a medzi sebou a medzi tvojím semenom po tebe: Obrezať sa vám má každý mužského pohlavia.

¹⁰This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your seed after you. Every male among you shall be circumcised.

¹¹Obrežete telo svojej neobrezanosti, a to bude znamením smluvy medzi mnou a medzi vami.

¹¹You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you.

¹²A keď mu bude osem dní, bude vám obrezaný každý mužského pohlavia po všetkých vašich pokoleniach ako narodený doma, tak i kúpený za striebro od ktoréhokoľvek cudzozemca, ktorý nie je z tvojho semena;

¹²He who is eight days old will be circumcised among you, every male throughout your generations, he who is born in the house, or bought with money from any foreigner who is not of your seed.

¹³istotne bude obrezaný jako narodený v tvojom dome, tak i kúpený za striebro, a moja smluva na vašom tele bude večnou smluvou.

¹³He who is born in your house, and he who is bought with your money, must be circumcised. My covenant will be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.

¹⁴Ale neobrezaný mužského pohlavia, ktorý by neobrezal tela svojej neobrezanosti, tá duša bude vyťatá zo svojho ľudu, zrušil moju smluvu.

¹⁴The uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people. He has broken my covenant.”

¹⁵A ešte riekol Bôh Abrahámovi: Čo sa týka Sáraje, tvojej ženy, nebudeš viacej nazývať jej meno: Sáraj, lebo jej meno je Sára.

¹⁵God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name will be Sarah.

¹⁶A požehnám ju a tiež ti dám z nej samej syna, a požehnám ju, a bude rozmnožená v národy; kráľovia národov povstanú z nej.

¹⁶I will bless her, and moreover I will give you a son by her. Yes, I will bless her, and she will be a mother of nations. Kings of peoples will come from her.”

¹⁷Vtedy padol Abrahám na svoju tvár a smial sa a povedal vo svojom srdci: Či azda storočnému sa narodí dieťa? A či Sára, ktorá má deväťdesiat rokov, porodí?

¹⁷Then Abraham fell on his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, “Will a child be born to him who is one hundred years old? Will Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth?”

¹⁸A Abrahám povedal Bohu: Ó, keby len Izmael žil pred tebou!

¹⁸Abraham said to God, “Oh that Ishmael might live before you!”

¹⁹A Bôh riekol: Áno, Sára, tvoja žena, ti porodí syna, a nazveš jeho meno Izák. A postavím svoju smluvu s ním za večnú smluvu, a tak i jeho semeno po ňom.

¹⁹God said, “No, but Sarah, your wife, will bear you a son. You shall call his name Isaac. Isaac means “he laughs.” I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant for his seed after him.

²⁰Aj o Izmaela som Ťa vyslyšal. Hľa, požehnám a rozplodím ho a rozmnožím ho prenáramne. Dvanástoro kniežat splodí, a učiním ho veľkým národom.

²⁰As for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly. He will become the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.

²¹Ale svoju smluvu postavím s Izákom, ktorého ti porodí Sára o tomto čase budúceho roku.

²¹But my covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.”

²²A keď dohovoril s ním, vystúpil Bôh od Abraháma hore do neba.

²²When he finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.

²³A Abrahám vzal Izmaela, svojho syna, i všetkých, ktorí sa narodili v jeho dome, jako i všetkých tých, ktorých bol nadobudol za svoje striebro, všetkých mužského pohlavia medzi mužmi domu Abrahámovho, a obrezal telo ich neobriezky hneď toho istého dňa, tak ako s ním o tom hovoril Bôh.

²³Abraham took Ishmael his son, all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money; every male among the men of Abraham’s house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the same day, as God had said to him.

²⁴A Abrahámovi bolo deväťdesiatdeväť rokov, keď si obrezal telo svojej neobriezky.

²⁴Abraham was ninety-nine years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

²⁵A Izmaelovi, jeho synovi, bolo trinásť rokov, keď si obrezal telo svojej neobriezky.

²⁵Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

²⁶Hneď toho istého dňa bol obrezaný Abrahám aj Izmael, jeho syn.

²⁶In the same day both Abraham and Ishmael, his son, were circumcised.

²⁷A tak i všetci mužovia jeho domu, jako narodení v dome, tak i nadobudnutý za striebro od cudzozemca, boli obrezaní razom s ním.

²⁷All the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money of a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
