Walk before Me and be blameless
.
And
when Abram was ninety years old and
nine
, Jehovah
appeared to Abram,
and said unto
him
, I am God Almighty ;
walk before me ,
and be thou
perfect
.
I will establish
My covenant between Me and you
, and I
will multiply you
exceedingly. ”

, and will multiply thee

Then
Abram fell facedown,
and God said
to
him,
And
Abram fell on
his
face:
and God talked
with
him, saying,
“
As for Me, this
is
My covenant with you:
You
will
be the father of many
nations.
As for me, behold,
my covenant is
with thee,
and
thou
shalt
be the father of a
multitude
of
nations.
No
longer
will
you
be called Abram, but your
name will
be Abraham ,
for I
have
made
you
a
father of many
nations.
Neither
shall
thy
name
any
more
be called Abram, but thy
name shall
be Abraham ;
for the
father of a
multitude
of
nations have
I
made
thee
.
I will make you
exceedingly
fruitful ;
I will make nations of you
, and kings will
descend
from
you
.
And
I will make thee
exceeding
fruitful ,
and
I will make nations of thee
, and kings shall
come
out
of
thee
.
I will establish My covenant as
an
everlasting
covenant
between Me and you
and your
descendants
after you
, to be your
God and the
God
of
your
descendants
after you
.
And
I will establish my covenant between me and thee
and thy
seed
after thee
throughout
their
generations
for
an
everlasting
covenant
, to be a
God unto
thee
and to
thy
seed
after thee
.
And to
you
and
your
descendants
I will give the land where
you
are
residing—
all the land of Canaan —as
an eternal
possession; and I will be their God. ”
And I will give unto
thee,
and
to
thy
seed
after
thee,
the land of
thy
sojournings,
all the land of Canaan ,
for
an everlasting
possession; and I will be their God.
God also
said to
Abraham, “You
must
keep My covenant —you
and your
descendants
in
the
generations
after you
.
And
God said unto
Abraham, And
as
for
thee,
thou
shalt
keep my covenant ,
thou,
and thy
seed
after thee
throughout
their
generations
.
This is My covenant with
you
and
your
descendants
after
you
, which you
are
to
keep: Every male among you must
be circumcised.
This is my covenant, which ye
shall
keep ,
between
me
and
you
and
thy
seed
after
thee
: every male among you shall
be circumcised.
You
are
to
circumcise
the flesh of your foreskin ,
and this
will
be a sign
of the
covenant between
Me and you.
And
ye
shall
be
circumcised
in
the flesh of your foreskin ;
and it
shall
be a token
of a
covenant betwixt
me and you.
Generation
after
generation,
every
male
must
be
circumcised
when
he is eight days old, including
those
born in your
household
and
those
purchased
from
a
foreigner —even
those
who
are
not your
offspring
.
And
he that
is eight days old shall
be
circumcised
among
you
, every
male
throughout
your
generations,
he
that
is
born in the
house,
or
bought
with
money
of
any
foreigner that
is
not of
thy
seed
.
Whether
they
are
born in your
household
or
purchased
, they
must be circumcised .
My covenant in your flesh will
be
an everlasting covenant.
He
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.
But
if
any
male is not circumcised, he
will
be cut off from his people; he has
broken My covenant. ”
And
the
uncircumcised
male who
is not circumcised in
the
flesh
of
his
foreskin
, that
soul
shall
be cut off from his people; he hath
broken my covenant.
Then
God said to
Abraham, “
As for Sarai your
wife, do
not call her Sarai, for
her name is
to
be Sarah
.
And
God said unto
Abraham, As for Sarai thy
wife, thou
shalt
not call her name
Sarai, but
Sarah
shall
her name be.
And I will bless her and will surely
give you
a son by
her .
I will bless her, and she will
be the
mother of nations; kings of peoples will
descend
from
her. ”
And I will bless her ,
and moreover
I
will give thee
a son of
her :
yea,
I will bless her, and she shall
be `a
mother of '
nations; kings of peoples shall
be
of
her.
Abraham fell facedown.
Then
he
laughed and said to
himself
, “Can
a child be born to
a
man
who
is a hundred years old? Can
Sarah give
birth
at
the
age
of
ninety? ”
Then
Abraham fell upon
his
face,
and
laughed ,
and said in
his
heart
, Shall
a child be born unto
him
that
is a hundred years old? and
shall
Sarah ,
that
is
ninety years
old,
bear
?
And Abraham said to
God, “O
that Ishmael might live under
Your
blessing
! ”
And Abraham said unto
God, Oh
that Ishmael might live before
thee
!
But
God replied
, “Your
wife
Sarah will
indeed
bear you
a son ,
and you
are
to
name him
Isaac .
I will establish My covenant with him as
an everlasting covenant for his descendants
after him.
And
God said
, Nay,
but
Sarah thy
wife
shall
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.
As for Ishmael, I have heard you
, and
I will
surely
bless
him ;
I
will make him fruitful and multiply him greatly.
He
will
become
the
father
of
twelve rulers
, and I will make him into
a great nation.
And
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.
But I
will
establish
My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will
bear to
you
at this time next year. ”
But my covenant will
I
establish
with Isaac, whom Sarah shall
bear unto
thee
at this set
time in
the
next year.
When
He had
finished
speaking
with Abraham
, God went up from him
.
And
he left
off
talking
with him
, and
God went up from Abraham
.
On
that
very
day
Abraham took his son Ishmael
and all those
born in his household
or
purchased
with his money —
every male among the members
of Abraham’s
household—
and he
circumcised them
, just
as God had told
him.
And
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.
So
Abraham was ninety -nine
years old when he was circumcised ,
And
Abraham was ninety years old and
nine,
when he was circumcised in
the
flesh
of
his
foreskin.
and his son Ishmael
was thirteen ;
And Ishmael
his son was thirteen years
old,
when
he
was
circumcised
in
the
flesh
of
his
foreskin.
Abraham and his son Ishmael
were
circumcised
on
the
same
day
.
In
the
selfsame
day
was
Abraham circumcised,
and Ishmael
his son.
And all the men of Abraham’s
household—both
servants
born in his
household
and those purchased
from
foreigners—
were circumcised with him.
And all the men of his
house,
those
born in the
house,
and those bought
with
money
of
a
foreigner,
were circumcised with him.
