* 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 . * And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin ; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you . * 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 ben #, which is not of thy seed . * 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 . * 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 . * And God said unto Abraham , As for Sarai thy wife , thou shalt not call her name Sarai , but Sarah shall her name be . * 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 . * 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 ? * And Abraham said unto God , O that Ishmael Yishma #e #l # might live before thee ! * 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 . * And as for Ishmael Yishma #e #l #, I have heard thee : Behold , I have blessed him , and will make him fruitful , and will multiply him exceedingly #H3966 m @#od #; twelve #H8147princes shall he beget , and I will make him a great nation . * But my covenant will I establish with Isaac , which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year . * And he left off talking with him , and God went up from Abraham . * And Abraham took Ishmael Yishma #e #l # his son , and all that were born in his house , and all that were bought with his money , every male among the men of Abrahams house ; and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the selfsame day , as God had said unto him . * And Abraham was ninety years old and nine , when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin . * And Ishmael Yishma #e #l # his son was thirteen #H7969years old , when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin . * In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised , and Ishmael Yishma #e #l # his son . * And all the men of his house , born in the house , and bought with money of the stranger ben #, were circumcised with him .
