⁴ “As for me, this is my covenant with you:^(A) You will be the father of many nations.^{(B) 5} No longer will you be called Abram^[a]; your name will be Abraham,^[b](C) for I have made you a father of many nations.^{(D) 6} I will make you very fruitful;^(E) I will make nations of you, and kings will come from you.^{(F) 7} I will establish my covenant^(G) as an everlasting covenant^(H) between me and you and your descendants after you for the generations to come, to be your God^(I) and the God of your descendants after you.^{(J) 8} The whole land of Canaan,^(K) where you now reside as a foreigner,^(L) I will give as an everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you;^(M) and I will be their God.^(N)”

⁹ Then God said to Abraham, “As for you, you must keep my covenant,^(O) you and your descendants after you for the generations to come.^{(P) 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.^{(Q) 11} You are to undergo circumcision,^(R) and it will be the sign of the covenant^(S) between me and you. ¹² For the generations to come^(T) every male among you who is eight days old must be circumcised,^(U) including 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.^(V) My covenant in your flesh is to be an everlasting covenant.^{(W) 14} Any uncircumcised male, who has not been circumcised^(X) in the flesh, will be cut off from his people;^(Y) he has broken my covenant.^(Z)”
