Your name shall no longer be called Abram, / But your name shall be Abraham; / For I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.

And God said to Abraham, And as for you, you shall keep My covenant, you and your seed after you throughout their generations.

And God said to Abraham, As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but her name shall be Sarah.

Then Abraham fell upon his face and laughed and said in his heart, Will a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? And will Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?

And Abraham said to God, Oh that Ishmael might live before You!

And when He finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.

And Abraham took Ishmael his son and all who were born in his house and all who were bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin on the very same day, as God had said to him.

And Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

On the very same day Abraham was circumcised as well as Ishmael his son.

And Jehovah appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre as he was sitting at the entrance of his tent in the heat of the day.

And Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah and said, Quickly prepare three measures of fine flour, knead it, and make cakes.

And Abraham ran to the herd and took a calf, tender and good, and gave it to the servant, and he hurried to prepare it.

And he took curds and milk and the calf which he had prepared, and set them before them; and he stood by them under the tree while they ate.

And they said to him, Where is Sarah your wife? And he said, There, in the tent.

Now Abraham and Sarah were old and advanced in age; it had ceased to be with Sarah according to the manner of women.

And Jehovah said to Abraham, Why did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I indeed bear a child when I am old?

And the men rose up from there and looked down upon Sodom. And Abraham walked with them to send them away.

And Jehovah said, Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do,

Since Abraham will indeed become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth will be blessed in him?

For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him to keep the way of Jehovah by doing righteousness and justice, that Jehovah may bring upon Abraham what He has spoken concerning him.
