Genesis 17

NEW JERUSALEM	LXX
1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old Yahweh appeared to him and said, 'I am El Shaddai. Live inmy presence, be perfect,	1 εγενετο δε αβραμ ετων ενενηκοντα εννεα και ωφθη κυριος τω αβραμ και ειπεν αυτω εγω ειμι ο θεος σου ευαρεστει εναντιον εμου και γινου αμεμπτος
2 and I shal grant a covenant between myself and you, and make you very numerous.'	2 και θησομαι την διαθηκην μου ανα μεσον εμου και ανα μεσον σου και πληθυνω σε σφοδρα
3 And Abram bowed to the ground. God spoke to him as follows,	3 και επεσεν αβραμ επι προσωπον αυτου και ελαλησεν αυτω ο θεος λεγων
4 'For my part, this is my covenant with you: you wil become the father of many nations.	4 και εγω ιδου η διαθηκη μου μετα σου και εση πατηρ πληθους εθνων
5 And you are no longer to be cal ed Abram; your name is to be Abraham, for I am making you father ofmany nations.	5 και ου κληθησεται ετι το ονομα σου αβραμ αλλ' εσται το ονομα σου αβρααμ οτι πατερα πολλων εθνων τεθεικα σε
6 I shal make you exceedingly fertile. I shall make you into nations, and your issue wil be kings.	6 και αυξανω σε σφοδρα σφοδρα και θησω σε εις εθνη και βασιλεις εκ σου εξελευσονται
7 And I shal maintain my covenant between myself and you, and your descendants after you,generation after generation, as a covenant in perpetuity, to be your God and the God of your descendants afteryou.	7 και στησω την διαθηκην μου ανα μεσον εμου και ανα μεσον σου και ανα μεσον του σπερματος σου μετα σε εις γενεας αυτων εις διαθηκην αιωνιον ειναι σου θεος και του σπερματος σου μετα σε
8 And to you and to your descendants after you, I shal give the country where you are now immigrants,the entire land of Canaan, to own in perpetuity. And I shal be their God.'	8 και δωσω σοι και τω σπερματι σου μετα σε την γην ην παροικεις πασαν την γην χανααν εις κατασχεσιν αιωνιον και εσομαι αυτοις θεος
9 God further said to Abraham, 'You for your part must keep my covenant, you and your descendantsafter you, generation after generation.	9 και ειπεν ο θεος προς αβρααμ συ δε την διαθηκην μου διατηρησεις συ και το σπερμα σου μετα σε εις τας γενεας αυτων
10 This is my covenant which you must keep between myself and you, and your descendants after you:every one of your males must be circumcised.	10 και αυτη η διαθηκη ην διατηρησεις ανα μεσον εμου και υμων και ανα μεσον του σπερματος σου μετα σε εις τας γενεας αυτων περιτμηθησεται υμων παν αρσενικον
11 You must circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and that wil be the sign of the covenant betweenmyself and you.	11 και περιτμηθησεσθε την σαρκα της ακροβυστιας υμων και εσται εν σημειω διαθηκης ανα μεσον εμου και υμων
12 As soon as he is eight days old, every one of your males, generation after generation, must becircumcised, including slaves born within the household or bought from a foreigner not of your descent.	12 και παιδιον οκτω ημερων περιτμηθησεται υμιν παν αρσενικον εις τας γενεας υμων ο οικογενης της οικιας σου και ο αργυρωνητος απο παντος υιου αλλοτριου ος ουκ εστιν εκ του σπερματος σου
13 Whether born within the household or bought, they must be circumcised. My covenant must bemarked in your flesh as a covenant in perpetuity.	13 περιτομη περιτμηθησεται ο οικογενης της οικιας σου και ο αργυρωνητος και εσται η διαθηκη μου επι της σαρκος υμων εις διαθηκην αιωνιον
14 The uncircumcised male, whose foreskin has not been circumcised -- that person must be cut offfrom his people: he has broken my covenant.'	14 και απεριτμητος αρσην ος ου περιτμηθησεται την σαρκα της ακροβυστιας αυτου τη ημερα τη ογδοη εξολεθρευθησεται η ψυχη εκεινη εκ του γενους αυτης οτι την διαθηκην μου διεσκεδασεν
15 Furthermore God said to Abraham, 'As regards your wife Sarai, you must not cal her Sarai, butSarah.	15 ειπεν δε ο θεος τω αβρααμ σαρα η γυνη σου ου κληθησεται το ονομα αυτης σαρα αλλα σαρρα εσται το ονομα αυτης
16 I shal bless her and moreover give you a son by her. I shal bless her and she will become nations:kings of peoples wil issue from her.'	16 ευλογησω δε αυτην και δωσω σοι εξ αυτης τεκνον και ευλογησω αυτον και εσται εις εθνη και βασιλεις εθνων εξ αυτου εσονται
17 Abraham bowed to the ground, and he laughed, thinking to himself, 'Is a child to be born to a manone hundred years old, and wil Sarah have a child at the age of ninety?'	17 και επεσεν αβρααμ επι προσωπον και εγελασεν και ειπεν εν τη διανοια αυτου λεγων ει τω εκατονταετει γενησεται και ει σαρρα ενενηκοντα ετων ουσα τεξεται
18 Abraham said to God, 'May Ishmael live in your presence! That wil be enough!'	18 ειπεν δε αβρααμ προς τον θεον ισμαηλ ουτος ζητω εναντιον σου
19 But God replied, 'Yes, your wife Sarah will bear you a son whom you must name Isaac. And I shalmaintain my covenant with him, a covenant in perpetuity, to be his God and the God of his descendants afterhim.	19 ειπεν δε ο θεος τω αβρααμ ναι ιδου σαρρα η γυνη σου τεξεται σοι υιον και καλεσεις το ονομα αυτου ισαακ και στησω την διαθηκην μου προς αυτον εις διαθηκην αιωνιον και τω σπερματι αυτου μετ' αυτον
20 For Ishmael too I grant you your request. I hereby bless him and wil make him fruitful andexceedingly numerous. He wil be the father of twelve princes, and I shal make him into a great nation.	20 περι δε ισμαηλ ιδου επηκουσα σου ιδου ευλογησα αυτον και αυξανω αυτον και πληθυνω αυτον σφοδρα δωδεκα εθνη γεννησει και δωσω αυτον εις εθνος μεγα
21 But my covenant I shall maintain with Isaac, whom Sarah wil bear you at this time next year.'	21 την δε διαθηκην μου στησω προς ισαακ ον τεξεται σοι σαρρα εις τον καιρον τουτον εν τω ενιαυτω τω ετερω
22 When he had finished speaking to Abraham, God went up from him.	22 συνετελεσεν δε λαλων προς αυτον και ανεβη ο θεος απο αβρααμ
23 Then Abraham took his son Ishmael, al the slaves born in his household or whom he had bought, inshort al the males among the people of Abraham's household, and circumcised their foreskins that same day,as God had said to him.	23 και ελαβεν αβρααμ ισμαηλ τον υιον αυτου και παντας τους οικογενεις αυτου και παντας τους αργυρωνητους και παν αρσεν των ανδρων των εν τω οικω αβρααμ και περιετεμεν τας ακροβυστιας αυτων εν τω καιρω της ημερας εκεινης καθα ελαλησεν αυτω ο θεος
24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when his foreskin was circumcised.	24 αβρααμ δε ην ενενηκοντα εννεα ετων ηνικα περιετεμεν την σαρκα της ακροβυστιας αυτου
25 Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when his foreskin was circumcised.	25 ισμαηλ δε ο υιος αυτου ετων δεκα τριων ην ηνικα περιετμηθη την σαρκα της ακροβυστιας αυτου
26 Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the very same day,	26 εν τω καιρω της ημερας εκεινης περιετμηθη αβρααμ και ισμαηλ ο υιος αυτου
27 and al the men of his household, those born in the household and those bought from foreigners,were circumcised with him.	27 και παντες οι ανδρες του οικου αυτου και οι οικογενεις και οι αργυρωνητοι εξ αλλογενων εθνων περιετεμεν αυτους
