18. And Avraham said unto HaElohim, O that Yishmael might live before Thee!
19. And Elohim said, Sarah thy isha shall bear thee ben indeed; and thou shalt call shmo Yitzchak; and I will establish My Brit (covenant) with him for a Brit Olam, and with his zera after him.
20. And as for Yishmael, I have heard thee; hinei, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve nasi'im (princes, rulers) shall he father, and I will make him a goy gadol (great nation).
21. But My Brit (covenant) will I establish with Yitzchak, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at mo'ed hazeh (this set time) next year.

24. And Avraham was ninety shanah and nine, when he was circumcised in the basar of his arelah.
25. And Yishmael bno was thirteen shanah, when he was circumcised in the basar of his arelah (foreskin).
26. In the very same day was Avraham circumcised, and Yishmael bno.
27. And all the men of his bais, born in the bais, and bought with kesef of the foreigner, were circumcised with him.
