Genesis 17:19-27 ▼

19 and God says, “Your wife Sarah is certainly bearing a son to you, and you have called his name Isaac, and I have established My covenant with him, for a perpetual covenant, to his seed after him.

20 As for Ishmael, I have heard you; behold, I have blessed him, and made him fruitful, and multiplied him, very exceedingly; twelve princes does he beget, and I have made him become a great nation;

21 and My covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah does bear to you at this appointed time in the next year”;

22 and He finishes speaking with him, and God goes up from Abraham.

23 And Abraham takes his son Ishmael, and all those born in his house, and all those bought with his money—every male among the men of Abraham’s house and circumcises the flesh of their foreskin, in this very same day, as God has spoken with him.

24 And Abraham [is] a son of ninety-nine years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;

25 and his son Ishmael [is] a son of thirteen years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;

26 in this very same day Abraham has been circumcised, and his son Ishmael;

27 and all the men of his house—born in the house, and bought with money from the son of a stranger—have been circumcised with him.
