Knjiga Postanka 17

Biblija Hrvatski	Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
1 Kad je Abramu bilo devedeset i devet godina, ukaza mu se Jahve pa mu reče: »Ja sam El Šadaj – Bog svesilni. Mojim hodi putem i neporočan budi.	1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old the LORD appeared to Abram, and said to him, "I am God Almighty; walk before me, and be blameless.
2 A savez svoj ja sklapam s tobom i silno ću te razmnožiti.«	2 And I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly."
3 Abram pade ničice dok mu Bog govoraše dalje:	3 Then Abram fell on his face; and God said to him,
4 »A ovo je savez moj s tobom: postat ćeš ocem mnogim narodima;	4 "Behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations.
5 i nećeš se više zvati Abram – već Abraham će ti ime biti, jer naroda mnogih ocem ja te postavljam.	5 No longer shall your name be Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.
6 Silno ću te rodnim učiniti; narode ću iz tebe izvesti; i kraljevi će od tebe izaći.	6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come forth from you.
7 Savez svoj sklapam između sebe i tebe i tvoga potomstva poslije tebe – savez svoj za vjekove: ja ću biti Bogom tvojim i tvoga potomstva poslije tebe.	7 And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your descendants after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your descendants after you.
8 Tebi i tvome potomstvu poslije tebe dajem zemlju u kojoj boraviš kao pridošlica – svu zemlju kanaansku – u vjekovni posjed; a ja ću biti njihov Bog.«	8 And I will give to you, and to your descendants after you, the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God."
9 Još reče Bog Abrahamu: »A ti savez čuvaj moj – ti i tvoje potomstvo poslije tebe u sve vijeke.	9 And God said to Abraham, "As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations.
10 A ovo je savez moj s tobom i tvojim potomstvom poslije tebe koji ćeš vršiti: svako muško među vama neka bude obrezano.	10 This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your descendants after you: Every male among you shall be circumcised.
11 Obrezujte se, i to neka bude znak saveza između mene i vas.	11 You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskins, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and you.
12 Svako muško među vama, kroz vaša pokoljenja, kad mu se navrši osam dana, neka bude obrezano; i rob, rođen u vašem domu, i onaj što bude kupljen od stranca, koji ne bude od vaše krvi.	12 He that is eight days old among you shall be circumcised; every male throughout your generations, whether born in your house, or bought with your money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring,
13 Da, i rob rođen u tvome domu ili za novac kupljen mora se obrezati! Tako će moj savez na vašem tijelu ostati vječnim savezom.	13 both he that is born in your house and he that is bought with your money, shall be circumcised. So shall my covenant be in your flesh an everlasting covenant.
14 Muško koje se ne bi obrezalo neka se odstrani od svoga roda: takav je prekršio moj savez.«	14 Any uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin shall be cut off from his people; he has broken my covenant."
15 Još reče Bog Abrahamu: »Tvojoj ženi Saraji nije više ime Saraja: Sara će joj ime biti.	15 And God said to Abraham, "As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name.
16 Nju ću ja blagosloviti i od nje ti dati sina; blagoslov ću na nju izliti te će se narodi od nje razviti; kraljevi će narodima od nje poteći.«	16 I will bless her, and moreover I will give you a son by her; I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples shall come from her."
17 Abraham pade ničice pa se nasmija i reče u sebi: »Onome komu je stotinu godina, zar se može roditi dijete? Zar će Sara u devedesetoj rod rađati!«	17 Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said to himself, "Shall a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? Shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?"
18 Abraham reče Bogu: »Neka tvojom milošću Jišmael poživi!«	18 And Abraham said to God, "O that Ishmael might live in thy sight!"
19 A Bog reče: »Ipak će ti tvoja žena Sara roditi sina; nadjeni mu ime Izak. Savez svoj s njime ću sklopiti, savez vječni s njime i s njegovim potomstvom poslije njega.	19 God said, "No, but Sarah your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him.
20 I za Jišmaela uslišah te. Evo ga blagoslivljam: rodnim ću ga učiniti i silno ga razmnožiti; dvanaest će knezova od njega postati i u velik će narod izrasti.	20 As for Ishmael, I have heard you; behold, I will bless him and make him fruitful and multiply him exceedingly; he shall be the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.
21 Ali ću držati svoj savez s Izakom, koga će ti roditi Sara dogodine u ovo doba.«	21 But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to you at this season next year."
22 Kad je završio razgovor s njim, od Abrahama Bog se podiže.	22 When he had finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.
23 Uzme zatim Abraham svoga sina Jišmaela i sve robove koji su bili rođeni u njegovu domu i sve koje je kupio novcem – sve muške ukućane – pa ih toga istog dana obreže, kako mu je Bog rekao.	23 Then Abraham took Ishmael his son and all the slaves born in his house or bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's house, and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskins that very day, as God had said to him.
24 Abrahamu bijaše devedeset i devet godina kad se obrezao,	24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
25 a njegovu sinu Jišmaelu bijaše trinaest godina kad ga obreza.	25 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
26 Tako su toga istog dana bili obrezani Abraham i njegov sin Jišmael;	26 That very day Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised;
27 i svi muškarci njegova doma, rođeni u njegovoj kući ili za novac kupljeni od stranca – svi s njim bijahu obrezani.	27 and all the men of his house, those born in the house and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
