Genesis 17:21 in Context — Genesis 17

19 Dieu dit: Certainement Sara, ta femme, t’enfantera un fils; et tu l’appelleras du nom d’Isaac. J’établirai mon alliance avec lui comme une alliance perpétuelle pour sa postérité après lui.

20 A l’égard d’Ismaël, je t’ai exaucé. Voici, je le bénirai, je le rendrai fécond, et je le multiplierai à l’infini; il engendrera douze princes, et je ferai de lui une grande nation.

21 J’établirai mon alliance avec Isaac, que Sara t’enfantera à cette époque-ci de l’année prochaine.

22 Lorsqu’il eut achevé de lui parler, Dieu s’éleva au-dessus d’Abraham.

23 Abraham prit Ismaël, son fils, tous ceux qui étaient nés dans sa maison et tous ceux qu’il avait acquis à prix d’argent, tous les mâles parmi les gens de la maison d’Abraham; et il les circoncit ce même jour, selon l’ordre que Dieu lui avait donné.
