Bereshis 17:1-7 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. And when Avram was ninety and nine shanah, Hashem appeared to Avram, and said unto him, I am El Shaddai; walk before Me, and be thou tamim (blameless).

2. And I will confirm My brit (covenant) between Me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.

3. And Avram fell on his face; and Elohim talked with him, saying,

4. As for Me, hinei, My brit (covenant) is with thee, and thou shalt be an Av of many Goyim [see 18:18].

5. Neither shall thy shem any more be called Avram, but thy shem shall be Avraham; for Av hamon Goyim (Father of a multitude of Goyim) have I made thee. [T.N. Ga 3:29 says "And if you belong to Moshiach (YESHAYAH 53:10), then you are of the ZERAH of Avraham Avinu, you are yoreshim (heirs) according to the havtachah (promise).]

6. And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make Goyim of thee, and Melechim shall come out of thee.

7. And I will establish My Brit (covenant) between Me and thee and thy zera after thee in their dorot for a Brit Olam, to be Elohim unto thee, and to thy zera after thee.
