7And I will establishH6965 my covenantH1285 between me and thee and thy seedH2233 after theeH310 in their generationsH1755 for an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285, to be a GodH430 unto thee, and to thy seedH2233 after theeH310. 8And I will giveH5414 unto thee, and to thy seedH2233 after theeH310, the landH776 wherein thou art a strangerH4033, all the landH776 of CanaanH3667, for an everlastingH5769 possessionH272; and I will be their GodH430.1

9And GodH430 saidH559 unto AbrahamH85, Thou shalt keepH8104 my covenantH1285 therefore, thou, and thy seedH2233 after theeH310 in their generationsH1755. 10This is my covenantH1285, which ye shall keepH8104, between me and you and thy seedH2233 after theeH310; Every man childH2145 among you shall be circumcisedH4135. 11And ye shall circumciseH5243 the fleshH1320 of your foreskinH6190; and it shall be a tokenH226 of the covenantH1285 betwixt me and you. 12And he that is eightH8083 daysH3117 oldH1121 shall be circumcisedH4135 among you, every man childH2145 in your generationsH1755, he that is bornH3211 in the houseH1004, or boughtH4736 with moneyH3701 of any strangerH5236H1121, which is not of thy seedH2233.2 13He that is bornH3211 in thy houseH1004, and he that is boughtH4736 with thy moneyH3701, must needsH4135 be circumcisedH4135: and my covenantH1285 shall be in your fleshH1320 for an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285.
