Genesis 17:11-21 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

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

12. An infant of eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child 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:

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

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

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

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

17. 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?

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

19. 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.

20. 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.

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