You shall call his name Isaac.{Isaac means "he laughs."} I
will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant
for his seed after him.
017:020 As for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him,
and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly.
He will become the father of twelve princes, and I will make
him a great nation.
017:021 But my covenant I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear
to you at this set time next year."
017:022 When he finished talking with him, God went up from Abraham.
017:023 Abraham took Ishmael his son, 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 in the same day, as God had said to him.
017:024 Abraham was ninety-nine years old, when he was circumcised
in the flesh of his foreskin.
017:025 Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he was circumcised
in the flesh of his foreskin.
017:026 In the same day both Abraham and Ishmael, his son, were circumcised.
017:027 All the men of his house, those born in the house, and those
bought with money of a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
018:001 Yahweh appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat
in the tent door in the heat of the day.
018:002 He lifted up his eyes and looked, and saw that three men
stood opposite him. When he saw them, he ran to meet them
from the tent door, and bowed himself to the earth,
018:003 and said, "My lord, if now I have found favor in your sight,
please don't go away from your servant.
018:004 Now let a little water be fetched, wash your feet, and rest
yourselves under the tree.
