 17:1  And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD
appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I [am] the Almighty God;
walk before me, and be thou perfect.
 17:2  And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and
will multiply thee exceedingly.
 17:3  And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him,
saying,
 17:4  As for me, behold, my covenant [is] with thee, and thou
shalt be a father of many nations.
 17:5  Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy
name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made
thee.
 17:6  And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make
nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
 17:7  And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and
thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting
covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
 17:8  And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee,
the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan,
for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.
 17:9  And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant
therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
 17:10  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.
 17:11  And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and
it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.
 17:12  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, which [is]
not of thy seed.
 17:13  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.
 17:14  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.
 17:15  And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou
shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah [shall] her name [be].
 17:16  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.
 17:17  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?
 17:18  And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live
before thee!
 17:19  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.
 17:20  And 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.
 17:21  But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which
Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.
 17:22  And he left off talking with him, and God went up from
Abraham.
 17:23  And 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.
 17:24  And Abraham [was] ninety years old and nine, when he
was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
 17:25  And Ishmael his son [was] thirteen years old, when he
was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
 17:26  In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and
Ishmael his son.
 17:27  And all the men of his house, born in the house, and
bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
