Genesis:15-17




ylt@Genesis:15:1 @After these things hath the word of Jehovah been unto Abram in a vision, saying, 'Fear not, Abram, I [am] a shield to thee, thy reward [is] exceeding great.'

ylt@Genesis:15:2 @And Abram saith, 'Lord Jehovah, what dost Thou give to me, and I am going childless? and an acquired son in my house is Demmesek Eliezer.'

ylt@Genesis:15:3 @And Abram saith, 'Lo, to me Thou hast not given seed, and lo, a domestic doth heir me.'

ylt@Genesis:15:4 @And lo, the word of Jehovah [is] unto him, saying, 'This [one] doth not heir thee; but he who cometh out from thy bowels, he doth heir thee;'

ylt@Genesis:15:5 @and He bringeth him out without, and saith, 'Look attentively, I pray thee, towards the heavens, and count the stars, if thou art able to count them;' and He saith to him, 'Thus is thy seed.'

ylt@Genesis:15:6 @And he hath believed in Jehovah, and He reckoneth it to him -- righteousness.

ylt@Genesis:15:7 @And He saith unto him, 'I [am] Jehovah who brought thee out from Ur of the Chaldees, to give to thee this land to possess it;'

ylt@Genesis:15:8 @and he saith, 'Lord Jehovah, whereby do I know that I possess it?'

ylt@Genesis:15:9 @And He saith unto him, 'Take for Me a heifer of three years, and a she-goat of three years, and a ram of three years, and a turtle-dove, and a young bird;'

ylt@Genesis:15:10 @and he taketh to him all these, and separateth them in the midst, and putteth each piece over against its fellow, but the bird he hath not divided;

ylt@Genesis:15:11 @and the ravenous birds come down upon the carcases, and Abram causeth them to turn back.

ylt@Genesis:15:12 @And the sun is about to go in, and deep sleep hath fallen upon Abram, and lo, a terror of great darkness is falling upon him;

ylt@Genesis:15:13 @and He saith to Abram, 'knowing -- know that thy seed is a sojourner in a land not theirs, and they have served them, and they have afflicted them four hundred years,

ylt@Genesis:15:14 @and the nation also whom they serve I judge, and after this they go out with great substance;

ylt@Genesis:15:15 @and thou -- thou comest in unto thy fathers in peace; thou art buried in a good old age;

ylt@Genesis:15:16 @and the fourth generation doth turn back hither, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet complete.'

ylt@Genesis:15:17 @And it cometh to pass -- the sun hath gone in, and thick darkness hath been -- and lo, a furnace of smoke, and a lamp of fire, which hath passed over between those pieces.

ylt@Genesis:15:18 @In that day hath Jehovah made with Abram a covenant, saying, 'To thy seed I have given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Phrat,

ylt@Genesis:15:19 @with the Kenite, and the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,

ylt@Genesis:15:20 @and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Rephaim,

ylt@Genesis:15:21 @and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Girgashite, and the Jebusite.'

ylt@Genesis:16:1 @And Sarai, Abram's wife, hath not borne to him, and she hath an handmaid, an Egyptian, and her name [is] Hagar;

ylt@Genesis:16:2 @and Sarai saith unto Abram, 'Lo, I pray thee, Jehovah hath restrained me from bearing, go in, I pray thee, unto my handmaid; perhaps I am built up from her;' and Abram hearkeneth to the voice of Sarai.

ylt@Genesis:16:3 @And Sarai, Abram's wife, taketh Hagar the Egyptian, her handmaid, at the end of the tenth year of Abram's dwelling in the land of Canaan, and giveth her to Abram her husband, to him for a wife,

ylt@Genesis:16:4 @and he goeth in unto Hagar, and she conceiveth, and she seeth that she hath conceived, and her mistress is lightly esteemed in her eyes.

ylt@Genesis:16:5 @And Sarai saith unto Abram, 'My violence [is] for thee; I -- I have given mine handmaid into thy bosom, and she seeth that she hath conceived, and I am lightly esteemed in her eyes; Jehovah doth judge between me and thee.'

ylt@Genesis:16:6 @And Abram saith unto Sarai, 'Lo, thine handmaid [is] in thine hand, do to her that which is good in thine eyes;' and Sarai afflicted her, and she fleeth from her presence.

ylt@Genesis:16:7 @And a messenger of Jehovah findeth her by the fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way [to] Shur,

ylt@Genesis:16:8 @and he saith, 'Hagar, Sarai's handmaid, whence hast thou come, and whither dost thou go?' and she saith, 'From the presence of Sarai, my mistress, I am fleeing.'

ylt@Genesis:16:9 @And the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, 'Turn back unto thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hands;'

ylt@Genesis:16:10 @and the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, 'Multiplying I multiply thy seed, and it is not numbered from multitude;'

ylt@Genesis:16:11 @and the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, 'Behold thou [art] conceiving, and bearing a son, and hast called his name Ishmael, for Jehovah hath hearkened unto thine affliction;

ylt@Genesis:16:12 @and he is a wild-ass man, his hand against every one, and every one's hand against him -- and before the face of all his brethren he dwelleth.'

ylt@Genesis:16:13 @And she calleth the name of Jehovah who is speaking unto her, 'Thou [art], O God, my beholder;' for she said, 'Even here have I looked behind my beholder?'

ylt@Genesis:16:14 @therefore hath one called the well, 'The well of the Living One, my beholder;' lo, between Kadesh and Bered.

ylt@Genesis:16:15 @And Hagar beareth to Abram a son; and Abram calleth the name of his son, whom Hagar hath borne, Ishmael;

ylt@Genesis:16:16 @and Abram [is] a son of eighty and six years in Hagar's bearing Ishmael to Abram.

ylt@Genesis:17:1 @And Abram is a son of ninety and nine years, and Jehovah appeareth unto Abram, and saith unto him, 'I [am] God Almighty, walk habitually before Me, and be thou perfect;

ylt@Genesis:17:2 @and I give My covenant between Me and thee, and multiply thee very exceedingly.'

ylt@Genesis:17:3 @And Abram falleth upon his face, and God speaketh with him, saying,

ylt@Genesis:17:4 @'I -- lo, My covenant [is] with thee, and thou hast become father of a multitude of nations;

ylt@Genesis:17:5 @and thy name is no more called Abram, but thy name hath been Abraham, for father of a multitude of nations have I made thee;

ylt@Genesis:17:6 @and I have made thee exceeding fruitful, and made thee become nations, and kings go out from thee.

ylt@Genesis:17:7 @'And I have established My covenant between Me and thee, and thy seed after thee, to their generations, for a covenant age-during, to become God to thee, and to thy seed after thee;

ylt@Genesis:17:8 @and I have given to thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojournings, the whole land of Canaan, for a possession age-during, and I have become their God.'

ylt@Genesis:17:9 @And God saith unto Abraham, 'And thou dost keep My covenant, thou and thy seed after thee, to their generations;

ylt@Genesis:17:10 @this [is] My covenant which ye keep between Me and you, and thy seed after thee: Every male of you [is] to be circumcised;

ylt@Genesis:17:11 @and ye have circumcised the flesh of your foreskin, and it hath become a token of a covenant between Me and you.

ylt@Genesis:17:12 @'And a son of eight days is circumcised by you; every male to your generations, born in the house, or bought with money from any son of a stranger, who is not of thy seed;

ylt@Genesis:17:13 @he is certainly circumcised who [is] born in thine house, or bought with thy money; and My covenant hath become in your flesh a covenant age-during;

ylt@Genesis:17:14 @and an uncircumcised one, a male, the flesh of whose foreskin is not circumcised, even that person hath been cut off from his people; My covenant he hath broken.'

ylt@Genesis:17:15 @And God saith unto Abraham, 'Sarai thy wife -- thou dost not call her name Sarai, for Sarah [is] her name;

ylt@Genesis:17:16 @and I have blessed her, and have also given to thee a son from her; and I have blessed her, and she hath become nations -- kings of peoples are from her.'

ylt@Genesis:17:17 @And Abraham falleth upon his face, and laugheth, and saith in his heart, 'To the son of an hundred years is one born? or doth Sarah -- daughter of ninety years -- bear?'

ylt@Genesis:17:18 @And Abraham saith unto God, 'O that Ishmael may live before Thee;'

ylt@Genesis:17:19 @and God saith, 'Sarah thy wife is certainly bearing a son to thee, and thou hast called his name Isaac, and I have established My covenant with him, for a covenant age-during, to his seed after him.

ylt@Genesis:17:20 @As to Ishmael, I have heard thee; lo, I have blessed him, and made him fruitful, and multiplied him, very exceedingly; twelve princes doth he beget, and I have made him become a great nation;

ylt@Genesis:17:21 @and My covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah doth bear to thee at this appointed time in the next year;'

ylt@Genesis:17:22 @and He finisheth speaking with him, and God goeth up from Abraham.

ylt@Genesis:17:23 @And Abraham taketh Ishmael his son, and all those born in his house, and all those bought with his money -- every male among the men of Abraham's house -- and circumciseth the flesh of their foreskin, in this self-same day, as God hath spoken with him.

ylt@Genesis:17:24 @And Abraham [is] a son of ninety and nine years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;

ylt@Genesis:17:25 @and Ishmael his son [is] a son of thirteen years in the flesh of his foreskin being circumcised;

ylt@Genesis:17:26 @in this self-same day hath Abraham been circumcised, and Ishmael his son;

ylt@Genesis:17:27 @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.

ylt@Genesis:18:1 @And Jehovah appeareth unto him among the oaks of Mamre, and he is sitting at the opening of the tent, about the heat of the day;
