Genesis 17
17
1And 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. 2And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. 3And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying, 4As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be the father of a multitude of nations. 5Neither 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. 6And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. 7And 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. 8And 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.
9And God said unto Abraham, And as for thee, thou shalt keep my covenant, thou, and thy seed after thee throughout their generations. 10This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee: every male among you shall be circumcised. 11And ye shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of a covenant betwixt me and you. 12And 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. 13He 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. 14And 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.
15And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be. 16And 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. 17Then 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? 18And Abraham said unto God, Oh that Ishmael might live before thee! 19And 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. 20And 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. 21But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.
22And he left off talking with him, and God went up from Abraham. 23And 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. 24And Abraham was ninety years old and nine, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. 25And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old, when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. 26In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son. 27And all the men of his house, those born in the house, and those bought with money of a foreigner, were circumcised with him.

Genesis 17
17
Ang Pagtutuli, Palatandaan ng Kasunduan
1Nang siyamnapu't siyam na taon na si Abram, nagpakita sa kanya si Yahweh at sinabi, “Ako ang Makapangyarihang Diyos. Sumunod ka sa akin at ingatan mong walang dungis ang iyong sarili habang ikaw ay nabubuhay. 2Ako'y makikipagtipan sa iyo at lubhang pararamihin ko ang iyong lahi.” 3Pagkarinig nito'y nagpatirapa si Abram. Sinabi pa sa kanya ng Diyos, 4“Ito ang aking tipan sa iyo: Ikaw ay magiging ama ng maraming bansa. 5Hindi#Ro. 4:17. na Abram ang itatawag sa iyo kundi Abraham,#5 ABRAHAM: Sa wikang Hebreo, ang mga salitang “Abraham” at “ama ng maraming bansa” ay magkasintunog. sapagkat ngayo'y ginagawa kitang ama ng maraming bansa. 6Pararamihin ko nga ang iyong lahi at magtatatag sila ng mga bansa; at may magiging hari sa kanila.
7“Tutuparin#Lu. 1:55. ko ang aking pangako sa iyo at sa iyong lahi habang panahon, at ako'y magiging Diyos ninyo. 8Ibibigay#Gw. 7:5. ko sa iyo at sa iyong magiging lahi ang lupaing ito ng Canaan na iyong tinitirhan ngayon bilang isang dayuhan. Ito ang magiging pag-aari nila sa habang panahon, at ako ang kanilang magiging Diyos.”
9Sinabi pa ng Diyos kay Abraham, “Ikaw at ang lahat ng susunod mong salinlahi ay dapat maging tapat sa ating kasunduan. 10Ganito#Gw. 7:8; Ro. 4:11. ang inyong gagawin: lahat ng lalaki sa inyo ay tutuliin, 11at iyan ang magiging palatandaan ng ating tipan. 12Lahat ng lalaki na isisilang sa inyong lahi ay tutuliin pagsapit ng ikawalong araw, kasama rito ang mga aliping isinilang sa inyong sambahayan, gayundin ang mga aliping binili sa dayuhan. 13Ang palatandaang ito sa inyong katawan ang magiging katibayan ng ating walang katapusang kasunduan. 14Ang sinumang lalaking hindi tuli ay ititiwalag sa iyong lahi sapagkat hindi siya tumupad sa ating kasunduan.”
15Sinabi pa rin ng Diyos kay Abraham, “Hindi na Sarai ang itatawag mo sa iyong asawa kundi Sara#15 SARA: Sa wikang Hebreo, ang kahulugan ng pangalang ito ay “prinsesa”. 16sapagkat siya'y pagpapalain ko. Magkakaanak ka sa kanya at siya'y magiging ina ng maraming bansa; may magiging hari mula sa kanyang mga salinlahi.”
17Muling nagpatirapa si Abraham, ngunit napatawa siya nang kanyang maisip na siya'y matanda na. Nasabi niya sa sarili, “Magkakaanak pa ba ang isang lalaki na sandaang taóng gulang na? At si Sara! Maglilihi pa ba siya gayong siya'y siyamnapung taon na?” 18At sinabi niya sa Diyos, “Bakit hindi na lang po si Ismael ang magmana ng mga ipinangako ninyo sa akin?”
19Kaya't sumagot ang Diyos, “Hindi; ang asawa mong si Sara ay magkakaanak ng isang lalaki at tatawagin mo siyang Isaac.#19 ISAAC: Sa wikang Hebreo, ang kahulugan ng pangalang ito ay “siya'y tumawa”. Makikipagtipan ako sa kanya at sa kanyang lahi magpakailanman. 20Tungkol naman kay Ismael, ipagkakaloob ko ang kahilingan mo: Pagpapalain ko siya at pararamihin ko rin ang kanyang lahi. Magkakaanak siya ng labindalawang prinsipe, at magiging bansang makapangyarihan ang kanyang salinlahi. 21Ngunit ang aking tipan sa iyo ay matutupad kay Isaac, na isisilang ni Sara sa isang taon, sa ganito ring panahon.” 22Pagkasabi nito, nilisan ng Diyos si Abraham.
23Nang araw ring iyon, ayon sa utos ng Diyos, tinuli ni Abraham si Ismael at lahat ng lalaki sa kanyang sambahayan, maging ang aliping ipinanganak doon o binili. 24Si Abraham ay siyamnapu't siyam na taon na nang tuliin, 25si Ismael naman ay labingtatlo. 26Tinuli sila sa parehong araw, 27at noon ding araw na iyon tinuli ang kanyang mga alipin.
