Genesis 17:7-13

NSB(i) 7 »I will establish my covenant as a long lasting covenant between us. It will be for your descendants after you, for the generations to come. I will be your God and the God of your descendants after you. 8 »The whole land of Canaan, where you are now a guest (alien) (foreigner) (stranger), I will give a long lasting possession to you and your descendants after you. 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. It will be the sign of the covenant between us. 12 »For the generations to come every male among you who is eight days old must be circumcised. This includes 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 a long lasting covenant.
