Postquam vero nonaginta et novem annorum esse cœperat, apparuit ei Dominus, dixitque ad eum: Ego Deus omnipotens: ambula coram me, et esto perfectus.

And after he began to be ninety and nine years old, the Lord appeared to him: and said unto him: I am the Almighty God: walk before me, and be perfect.

Postquam vero nonaginta et noveme de anno es incipe, Domino ad illo appare, et dic ad illo: me Deo omnipotente: ambula coram me, et es perfice.

Ponamque fœdus meum inter me et te, et multiplicabo te vehementer nimis.

And I will make my covenant between me and thee: and I will multiply thee exceedingly.

Et pone foedere meo inter me et te, et multiplica te vehementer nimis.

Cecidit Abram pronus in faciem.

Abram fell flat on his face.

Abra prono cade in facie.

Dixitque ei Deus: Ego sum, et pactum meum tecum, erisque pater multarum gentium.

And God said to him: I am, and my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.

Et Deo ad illo dic: me es, et paciscor meo tecum, et es patre multo de gentes.

Nec ultra vocabitur nomen tuum Abram, sed appellaberis Abraham: quia patrem multarum gentium constitui te.

Neither shall thy name be called any more Abram: but thou shalt be called Abraham: because I have made thee a father of many nations.

Nec ultra nomine tuo voca Abra, sed appella Abrahame: quia te constitue patre multo de gentes.

Faciamque te crescere vehementissime, et ponam te in gentibus, regesque ex te egredientur.

And I will make thee increase exceedingly, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.

Et fac te cresce vehementer, et pone te in gentes, et reges ex te egredior.

Et statuam pactum meum inter me et te, et inter semen tuum post te in generationibus suis, fœdere sempiterno: ut sim Deus tuus, et seminis tui post te.

And I will establish my covenant between me and thee, and between thy seed after thee in their generations, by a perpetual covenant: to be a God to thee, and to thy seed after thee.

Et statue pacto meo inter me et te, et inter semine tuo post te in generationes suo, foedere sempiterno: ut es Deo tuo, et de semine tuo post te.

Daboque tibi et semini tuo terram peregrinationis tuæ, omnem terram Chanaan in possessionem æternam, eroque Deus eorum.

And I will give to thee, and to thy seed, the land of thy sojournment, all the land of Chanaan, for a perpetual possession, and I will be their God.

Et daba ad te et ad semine tuo terra de peregrinatione tuo, omni terra Chanaane in possessione aeterno, et es Deo de illos.

Dixit iterum Deus ad Abraham: Et tu ergo custodies pactum meum, et semen tuum post te in generationibus suis.

Again God said to Abraham: And thou therefore shalt keep my covenant, and thy seed after thee in their generations.

Deo iterum dic ad Abrahame: et te ergo custodi pacto meo, et semine tuo post te in generationes suo.

Hoc est pactum meum quod observabitis inter me et vos, et semen tuum post te: circumcidetur ex vobis omne masculinum:

This is my covenant which you shall observe between me and you, and thy seed after thee: All the male-kind of you shall be circumcised.

Hoc es paciscor meo quod observa inter me et vos, et semine tuo post te: omni ex vos masculino circumcide:

et circumcidetis carnem præputii vestri, ut sit in signum fœderis inter me et vos.

And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, that it may be for a sign of the covenant between me and you.

Et de praeputio vestro circumcide carne, ut es in signo de foedro inter me et vos.

Infans octo dierum circumcidetur in vobis, omne masculinum in generationibus vestris: tam vernaculus, quam emptitius circumcidetur, et quicumque non fuerit de stirpe vestra:

An infant of eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every manchild in your generations: he that is born in the house, as well as the bought servant, shall be circumcised, and whosoever is not of your stock:

Infante octo de die circumcide in vos, omni masculino in generationes vestro: tam vernaculo, quam emptito circumcide, et omni non es de stirpe vestro:

eritque pactum meum in carne vestra in fœdus æternum.

And my covenant shall be in your flesh for a perpetual covenant.

Et paciscor meo in carne vestro in foedere aeterno es.

Masculus, cujus præputii caro circumcisa non fuerit, delebitur anima illa de populo suo: quia pactum meum irritum fecit.

The male whose flesh of his foreskin shall not be circumcised, that soul shall be destroyed out of his people: because he hath broken my covenant.

Masculo, de que de praeputio carne circumcide non es, anima illa dele de populo suo: quia paciscor meo irrito fac.

Dixit quoque Deus ad Abraham: Sarai uxorem tuam non vocabis Sarai, sed Saram.

God said also to Abraham: Sarai thy wife thou shalt not call Sarai, but Sara.

Deo etiam dic ad Abrahame: sarao uxore tuo non voca Sarao, sed Sarame.

Et benedicam ei, et ex illa dabo tibi filium cui benedicturus sum: eritque in nationes, et reges populorum orientur ex eo.

And I will bless her, and of her I will give thee a son, whom I will bless, and he shall become nations, and kings of people shall spring from him.

Et benedic ad illo, et ex illa da ad te filio ad que benedi es: et es in nationes, et reges de populos ori ex eo.

Cecidit Abraham in faciem suam, et risit, dicens in corde suo: Putasne centenario nascetur filius? et Sara nonagenaria pariet?

Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, saying in his heart: Shall a son, thinkest thou, be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sara that is ninety years old bring forth?

Abrahame cade in facie suo, et ride, dicente in corde suo: putasne centenario filio nasce? Et Sara nonagenario pare?

Dixitque ad Deum: Utinam Ismaël vivat coram te.

And he said to God: O that Ismael may live before thee.

Et dic ad Deo: utinam Ismaële vive coram te.

Et ait Deus ad Abraham: Sara uxor tua pariet tibi filium, vocabisque nomen ejus Isaac, et constituam pactum meum illi in fœdus sempiternum, et semini ejus post eum.

And God said to Abraham: Sara thy wife shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Isaac, and I will establish my covenant with him for a perpetual covenant, and with his seed after him.

Et Deo dic ad Abrahame: sara uxore tuo pare ad te filio, et voca nomine de illo Isaace, et constitue pacto meo ad illo in foedere sempiterno, et ad semine de illo post illo.

Super Ismaël quoque exaudivi te: ecce, benedicam ei, et augebo, et multiplicabo eum valde: duodecim duces generabit, et faciam illum in gentem magnam.

And as for Ismael I have also heard thee. Behold, I will bless him, and increase, and multiply him exceedingly: he shall beget twelve chiefs, and I will make him a great nation.

Super Ismaële etiam exaudi te: ecce, benedic ad illo, et auge, et multiplica illo valde: duodecime duces genera, et fac illo in gente magna.

Pactum vero meum statuam ad Isaac, quem pariet tibi Sara tempore isto in anno altero.

But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sara shall bring forth to thee at this time in the next year.

Pactum vero meo statue ad Isaace, Sara pare ad te quem tempore isto in anno altero.

Cumque finitus esset sermo loquentis cum eo, ascendit Deus ab Abraham.

And when he had left off speaking with him, God went up from Abraham.

Cumque finge es sermone loque cum eo, Deo ascende ab Abrahame.

Tulit autem Abraham Ismaël filium suum, et omnes vernaculos domus suæ, universosque quos emerat, cunctos mares ex omnibus viris domus suæ: et circumcidit carnem præputii eorum statim in ipsa die, sicut præceperat ei Deus.

And Abraham took Ismael his son, and all that were born in his house: and all whom he had bought, every male among the men of his house: and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskin forthwith the very same day, as God had commanded him.

Fer autem Abrahame Ismaële filio suo, et omni vernaculos de domo suo, et universa maris eme, cunga que ex omni viros de domo suo: et de praeputio de illos circumcide carne statim in ipso die, sicut Deo ad illo praecipie.

Abraham nonaginta et novem erat annorum quando circumcidit carnem præputii sui.

Abraham was ninety and nine years old, when he circumcised the flesh of his foreskin.

Abrahame nonaginta et noveme es de annos quando de praeputio suo circumcide carne.

Et Ismaël filius tredecim annos impleverat tempore circumcisionis suæ.

And Ismael his son was full thirteen years old at the time of his circumcision.

Et Ismaële filio tredecime annos imple tempore de circumcisione suo.

Eadem die circumcisus est Abraham et Ismaël filius ejus:

The self-same day was Abraham circumcised and Ismael his son.

Idem die circumcide es Abrahame et Ismaële filio de illo:

et omnes viri domus illius, tam vernaculi, quam emptitii et alienigenæ pariter circumcisi sunt.

And all the men of his house, as well they that were born in his house, as the bought servants and strangers, were circumcised with him.

Et omni viros domo de illo, tam vernaculo, quam emptiti et alienigeno pariter circumcide es.
