Genesis 17:9-13
Lexham English Bible
9 And God said to Abraham, “Now as for you, you must keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you, throughout their generations. 10 This is my covenant which you shall keep, between me and you, and also with[a] your offspring after you: Every male among you shall be circumcised. 11 And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and you. 12 And at eight days of age[b] you shall yourselves circumcise every male belonging to your generations and the servant born in your house and the one bought from any foreigner[c] who is not from your offspring. 13 You must certainly circumcise[d] the servant born in your house and the one bought from any foreigner.[e] And my covenant shall be with your flesh as an everlasting covenant.
