創17
1亞伯蘭年九十九歲的時候，耶和華向他顯現，對他說：「我是全能的神。你當在我面前作完全人，
2我就與你立約，使你的後裔極其繁多。」
3亞伯蘭俯伏在地；神又對他說：
4「我與你立約：你要作多國的父。
5從此以後，你的名不再叫亞伯蘭，要叫亞伯拉罕，因為我已立你作多國的父。
6我必使你的後裔極其繁多；國度從你而立，君王從你而出。
7我要與你並你世世代代的後裔堅立我的約，作永遠的約，是要作你的後裔的神。
8我要將你現在寄居的地，就是迦南全地，賜給你和你的後裔永遠為業，我也必作他們的神。」
9神又對亞伯拉罕說：「你和你的後裔必世世代代遵守我的約。
10你們所有的男子都要受割禮；這就是我與你並你的後裔所立的約，是你們所當遵守的。
11你們都要受割禮(割陽皮)；這是我與你們立約的證據。
12你們世世代代的男子，無論是家裡生的，是在你後裔之外用銀子從外人買的，生下來第八日，都要受割禮。
13你家裡生的和你用銀子買的，都必須受割禮。這樣，我的約就立在你們肉體上作永遠的約。
14但不受割禮的男子必從民中剪除，因他背了我的約。」
15神又對亞伯拉罕說：「你的妻子撒萊不可再叫撒萊，他的名要叫撒拉。
16我必賜福給他，也要使你從他得一個兒子。我要賜福給他，他也要作多國之母；必有百姓的君王從他而出。」
17亞伯拉罕就俯伏在地喜笑，心裡說：「一百歲的人還能得孩子嗎？撒拉已經九十歲了，還能生養嗎？」
18亞伯拉罕對神說：「但願以實瑪利活在你面前。」
19神說：「不然，你妻子撒拉要給你生一個兒子，你要給他起名叫以撒。我要與他堅定所立的約，作他後裔永遠的約。
20至於以實瑪利，我也應允你：我必賜福給他，使他昌盛，極其繁多。他必生十二個族長；我也要使他成為大國。
21到明年這時節，撒拉必給你生以撒，我要與他堅定所立的約。」
22神和亞伯拉罕說完了話，就離開他上升去了。
23正當那日，亞伯拉罕遵著神的命，給他的兒子以實瑪利和家裡的一切男子，無論是在家裡生的，是用銀子買的，都行了割禮。
24亞伯拉罕受割禮的時候年九十九歲。
25他兒子以實瑪利受割禮的時候年十三歲。
26正當那日，亞伯拉罕和他兒子以實瑪利一同受了割禮。
27家裡所有的人，無論是在家裡生的，是用銀子從外人買的，也都一同受了割禮。
Genesis 17
1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; walk before me faithfully and be blameless.
2 Then I will make my covenant between me and you and greatly increase your numbers.”
3 Abram fell facedown, and God said to him,
4 “As for me, this is my covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations.
5 No longer will you be called Abram; your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations.
6 I will make you very fruitful; I will make nations of you, and kings will come from you.
7 I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you and your descendants after you for the generations to come, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you.
8 The whole land of Canaan, where you now reside as a foreigner, I will give as an everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you; and I will be their God.”
9 Then God said to Abraham, “As for you, you must keep my covenant, you and your descendants after you for the generations to come.
10 This is my covenant with you and your descendants after you, the covenant you are to keep: Every male among you shall be circumcised.
11 You are to undergo circumcision, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and you.
12 For the generations to come every male among you who is eight days old must be circumcised, including those born in your household or bought with money from a foreigner-those who are not your offspring.
13 Whether born in your household or bought with your money, they must be circumcised My covenant in your flesh is to be an everlasting covenant.
14 Any uncircumcised male, who has not been circumcised in the flesh, will be cut off from his people; he has broken my covenant.”
15 God also said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you are no longer to call her Sarai; her name will be Sarah.
16 I will bless her and will surely give you a son by her. I will bless her so that she will be the mother of nations; kings of people will come from her.”
17 Abraham fell facedown; he laughed and said to himself, “Will a son be born to a man a hundred years old? Will Sarah bear a child at the age of ninety?”
18 And Abraham said to God, “If only Ishmael might live under your blessing!”
19 Then God said, “Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him.
20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.
21 But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you by this time next year.”
22 When he had finished speaking with Abraham, God went up from him.
23 On that very day Abraham took his son Ishmael and all those born in his household or bought with his money, every male in his household, and circumcised them, as God told him.
24 Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised,
25 and his son Ishmael was thirteen;
26 Abraham and his son Ishmael were both circumcised on that very day.
27 And every male in Abraham’s household, including those born in his household or bought from a foreigner, was circumcised with him.
創18
1耶和華在幔利橡樹那裡像亞伯拉罕顯現出來。那時正熱，亞伯拉罕坐在帳棚門口，
2舉目觀看，見有三個人在對面站著。他一見，就從帳棚門口跑去迎接他們，俯伏在地，
3說：「我主，我若在你眼前蒙恩，求你不要離開僕人往前去。
4容我拿點水來，你們洗洗腳，在樹下歇息歇息。
5我再拿一點餅來，你們可以加添心力，然後往前去。你們既到僕人這裡來，理當如此。」他們說：「就照你說的行吧。」
6亞伯拉罕急忙進帳棚見撒拉，說：「你速速拿三細亞細麵調和做餅。」
7亞伯拉罕又跑到牛群裡，牽了一隻又嫩又好的牛犢來，交給僕人，僕人急忙預備好了。
8亞伯拉罕又取了奶油和奶，並預備好的牛犢來，擺在他們面前，自己在樹下站在旁邊，他們就吃了。
9他們問亞伯拉罕說：「你妻子撒拉在那裡？」他說：「在帳棚裡。」
10三人中有一位說：「到明年這時候，我必要回到你這裡；你的妻子撒拉必生一個兒子。」撒拉在那人後邊的帳棚門口也聽見了這話。
11亞伯拉罕和撒拉年紀老邁，撒拉的月經已斷絕了。
12撒拉心裡暗笑，說：「我既已衰敗，我主也老邁，豈能有這喜事呢？」
13耶和華對亞伯拉罕說：「撒拉為什麼暗笑，說：『我既已年老，果真能生養嗎？』
14耶和華豈有難成的事嗎？到了日期，明年這時候，我必回到你這裡，撒拉必生一個兒子。」
15撒拉就害怕，不承認，說：「我沒有笑。」那位說：「不然，你實在笑了。」
16三人就從那裡起行，向所多瑪觀看，亞伯拉罕也與他們同行，要送他們一程。
17耶和華說：「我所要做的事豈可瞞著亞伯拉罕呢？
18亞伯拉罕必要成為強大的國；地上的萬國都必因他得福。
19我眷顧他，為要叫他吩咐他的眾子和他的眷屬遵守我的道，秉公行義，使我所應許亞伯拉罕的話都成就了。」
20耶和華說：「所多瑪和蛾摩拉的罪惡甚重，聲聞於我。
21我現在要下去，察看他們所行的，果然盡像那達到我耳中的聲音一樣嗎？若是不然，我也必知道。」
22二人轉身離開那裡，向所多瑪去；但亞伯拉罕仍舊站在耶和華面前。
23亞伯拉罕近前來，說：「無論善惡，祢都要剿滅嗎？
24假若那城裡有五十個義人，祢還剿滅那地方嗎？不為城裡這五十個義人饒恕其中的人嗎？
25將義人與惡人同殺，將義人與惡人一樣看待，這斷不是祢所行的。審判全地的主豈不行公義嗎？」
26耶和華說：「我若在所多瑪城裡見有五十個義人，我就為他們的緣故饒恕那地方的眾人。」
27亞伯拉罕說：「我雖然是灰塵，還敢對主說話。
28假若這五十個義人短了五個，祢就因為短了五個毀滅全城嗎？」祂說：「我在那裡若見有四十五個，也不毀滅那城。」
29亞伯拉罕又對祂說：「假若在那裡見有四十個怎麼樣呢？」祂說：「為這四十個的緣故，我也不做這事。」
30亞伯拉罕說：「求主不要動怒，容我說，假若在那裡見有三十個怎麼樣呢？」祂說：「我在那裡若見有三十個，我也不做這事。」
31亞伯拉罕說：「我還敢對主說話，假若在那裡見有二十個怎麼樣呢？」祂說：「為這二十個的緣故，我也不毀滅那城。」
32亞伯拉罕說：「求主不要動怒，我再說這一次，假若在那裡見有十個呢？」他說：「為這十個的緣故，我也不毀滅那城。」
33耶和華與亞伯拉罕說完了話就走了；亞伯拉罕也回到自己的地方去了。
Genesis 18
1 The Lord appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day.
2 Abraham looked up and saw three men standing nearby. When he saw them, he hurried from the entrance of his tent to meet them and bowed low to the ground.
3 He said, “If I have found favor in your eyes, my lord, do not pass your servant by.
4 Let a little water be brought, and then you may all wash your feet and rest under this tree.
5 Let me get you something to eat, so you can be refreshed and then go on your way-now that you have come to your servant.” “Very well,” they answered, “do as you say.”
6 So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah. “Quick,” he said, “get three seahs of the finest flour and knead it and bake some bread.”
7 Then he ran to the herd and selected a choice, tender calf and gave it to a servant, who hurried to prepare it.
8 He then brought some curds and milk and the calf that had been prepared, and set these before them. While they ate, he stood near them under a tree.
9 “Where is your wife Sarah?” they asked him. “There, in the tent,” he said.
10 Then one of them said, “I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah your wife will have a son.” Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, which was behind him.
11 Abraham and Sarah were already very old, and Sarah was past the age of childbearing.
12 So Sarah laughed to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my lord is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
13 Then the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Will I really have a child, now that I am old?’
14 Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return to you at the appointed time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”
15 Sarah was afraid, so she lied and said, “I did not laugh.” But he said, “Yes, you did laugh.”
16 When the men got up to leave, they looked down toward Sodom, and Abraham walked along with them to see them on their way.
17 Then the Lord said, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do?
18 Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation, and all nations on earth will be blessed through him.
19 For I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord by doing what is right and just, so that the Lord will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him.”
20 Then the Lord said, “The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous
21 that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know.”
22 The men turned away and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the Lord.
23 Then Abraham approached him and said: “Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked?
24 What if there are fifty righteous people in the city? Will you really sweep it away and not spare the place for the sake of the fifty righteous people in it?
25 Far be it from you to do such a thing-to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. Far be it from you! Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?”
26 The Lord said, “If I find fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake.”
27 Then Abraham spoke up again: “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes,
28 what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five people?” “If I find forty-five there,” he said, “I will not destroy it.”
29 Once again he spoke to him, “What if only forty are found there?” He said, “For the sake of forty, I will not do it.”
30 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak. What if only thirty can be found there?” He answered, “I will not do it if I find thirty there.”
31 Abraham said, “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty can be found there?” He said, “For the sake of twenty, I will not destroy it.”
32 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak just once more. What if only ten can be found there?” He answered, “For the sake of ten, I will not destroy it.”
33 When the Lord had finished speaking with Abraham, he left, and Abraham returned home.
