And when Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am the Almighty God! Walk before Me and be perfect.

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

And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your seed after you in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your seed after you.

“As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations.

And God said, “Sarah your wife shall bear you a son indeed. And you shall call his name Isaac. And I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.

And I will give the land to you in which you are a sojourner, and to your seed after you, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. And I will be their God.”

And Abraham fell upon his face and laughed, and said in his heart, “Shall a child be born to him that is a hundred years old? And shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear?”

And God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.

And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin. And it shall be a sign of the covenant between Me and you.

But I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to you at this set time in the next year.”

And a son of eight days shall be circumcised among you, every male child in your generations; he that is born in the house, or bought with silver of any foreigner who is not of your seed. He that is born in your house, and he that is bought with your silver, must be circumcised. And My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
