Genesis 17

Le Abram rive sou katrevendisnevan laj, Seyè a parèt devan l', li di l' konsa. Mwen se Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a. Se pou ou toujou fè sa m' di ou fè. Se pou ou mennen yon vi san repwòch.

And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.

M'ap pase yon kontra avè ou, m'ap ba ou anpil anpil pitit pitit.

And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.

Lè sa a, Abram mete ajenou, li bese tèt li jouk atè. Bondye pale avè l' ankò, li di l'.

And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,

-Men kontra m'ap pase avè ou la. W'ap zansèt moun anpil nasyon.

As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.

Yo p'ap rele ou Abram ankò. Men y'a rele ou Abraram, paske m'ap fè ou tounen zansèt moun anpil nasyon.

Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.

M'ap ba ou anpil anpil pitit pitit. Y'ap tounen kantite nasyon. Anpil wa ap soti nan ras ou.

And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.

M'ap kenbe kontra m' lan avè ou, avèk tout ras ou. De pitit an pitit, se va yon kontra k'ap la pou tout tan. Se mwen k'ap Bondye ou, se mwen k'ap Bondye pitit pitit ou yo tou.

And 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 unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.

Ou wè tè kote ou rete tankou moun vini koulye a? Mwen gen pou m' ba ou l' ansanm ak tout pitit pitit ou yo. tout peyi Kanaran an ap rele ou pa ou pou tout tan. Wi, se mwen menm k'ap Bondye yo tout.

And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.

Bondye di Abraram. Men ou menm ansanm ak tout ras ou, de pitit an pitit, se pou nou dakò pou nou kenbe kontra a avèk mwen.

And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.

Men sa pou ou menm ansanm ak tout pitit ou yo pou nou dakò fè: se pou tout gason nan mitan nou sikonsi.

This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.

Depi koulye a, se pou nou sikonsi tout gason. Se pou sa sèvi yon siy pou moutre gen yon kontra ki pase ant nou menm avè m'.

And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.

Se pou nou sikonsi tout gason wit jou apre yo fèt, li te mèt pitit moun lakay la, osinon pitit moun lòt nasyon ou pran pou travay lakay ou.

And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of thy seed.

Wi, se pou yo tout yo sikonsi, kit yo fèt lakay ou, kit yo fèt nan peyi etranje. Se va yon mak nan kò nou pou fè wè kontra mwen pase avèk nou an, se yon kontra ki la pou tout tan.

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.

Si yon gason pa sikonsi, se pou yo disparèt li nan ras la, paske li pa t' kenbe kontra mwen fè ak nou an.

And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.

Apre sa, Bondye di Abraram. Sarayi, madanm ou, p'ap rele Sarayi ankò. Men depi jòdi a y'a rele l' Sara.

And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.

M'ap beni madanm ou, m'ap fè l' ba ou yon pitit gason. M'ap beni l', m'ap fè l' tounen manman moun anpil nasyon. Anpil nan pitit pitit li yo va wa.

And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.

Abraram mete ajenou, li bese tèt li jouk atè. Men, li tonbe ri lè l' chonje jan l' fin granmoun. Li t'ap di nan kè l'. Eske yon nonm ki gen santan ka fè pitit ankò? Eske Sara, yon fanm ki gen katrevendizan, ka vin ansent?

Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?

Li di Bondye. Tanpri, beni Izmayèl. Pa kite l' mouri!

And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!

Men Bondye di l'. Non, se Sara madanm ou, ki gen pou fè yon pitit gason pou ou. W'a rele l' Izarak. M'ap kenbe kontra mwen avèk li, ansanm ak pitit pitit li yo. Pa bliye. Se va yon kontra k'ap la pou tout tan.

And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.

Ou mande m' pou m' pwoteje Izmayèl pou ou! M'ap fè l' pou ou! M'ap beni l', m'ap ba li anpil pitit ak anpil pitit pitit. Gen douz chèf k'ap soti nan fanmi li. M'ap fè pitit li yo tounen yon gwo nasyon.

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.

Men, m'ap kenbe kontra mwen an avèk Izarak, pitit gason Sara pral fè pou ou a. L'ap fèt lanne k'ap vini an, lè konsa.

But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.

Lè Bondye fin pale avèk Abraram, li kite l', li moute nan syèl.

And he left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.

Jou sa a Abraram pran Izmayèl, pitit gason li an, ak tout gason ki t'ap travay lakay li, kit yo te fèt nan kay la, kit se moun lòt nasyon li te pran pou sèvi l', li sikonsi yo tout menm jou a, jan Bondye te pase l' lòd la.

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.

Abraram poutèt pa l' te gen katrevendiznèvan lè l' te sikonsi.

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

Izmayèl, pitit gason l' lan, te gen trèzan lè l' te sikonsi.

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

Yo tout de, yo sikonsi yo menm jou

In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son.

ansanm ak tout domestik ki te lakay li, kit yo te fèt la, kit se achte li te achte yo nan men moun lòt nasyon yo.

And all the men of his house, born in the house, and bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
