He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day. Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs.

Then he gave Abraham the covenant of circumcision. And Abraham became the father of Isaac and circumcised him eight days after his birth. Later Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs.

Then God made a covenant with Abraham. God told him that circumcision would show who the members of the covenant were. Abraham became Isaac’s father. He circumcised Isaac eight days after he was born. Later, Isaac became Jacob’s father. Jacob had 12 sons. They became the founders of the 12 tribes of Israel.

And he gave him the covenant of circumcision. And so Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him on the eighth day, and Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob of the twelve patriarchs.

“ God also gave Abraham the covenant of circumcision at that time. So when Abraham became the father of Isaac, he circumcised him on the eighth day. And the practice was continued when Isaac became the father of Jacob, and when Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs of the Israelite nation.

And so he gave Abraham the covenant of circumcision. After this, he fathered Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day. Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs.

And He gave him the covenant of circumcision; and so Abraham fathered Isaac, and circumcised him on the eighth day; and Isaac fathered Jacob, and Jacob, the twelve patriarchs.

Then He gave him the covenant of circumcision; and so Abraham begot Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day; and Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot the twelve patriarchs.

And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.

Then He gave him the covenant of circumcision. After this, he fathered Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day; Isaac did the same with Jacob, and Jacob with the 12 patriarchs.

And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so[ Abraham] begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac[ begat] Jacob; and Jacob[ begat] the twelve patriarchs.

Then God gave Abraham the covenant of circumcision, and so he became the father of Isaac and circumcised him when he was eight days old, and Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob of the twelve patriarchs.

God said to Abraham,“ As for you, you will keep my covenant, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations.This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your offspring after you. Every male among you shall be circumcised.You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin. It will be a token of the covenant between me and you.He who is eight days old will be circumcised among you, every male throughout your generations, he who is born in the house, or bought with money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring.He who is born in your house, and he who is bought with your money, must be circumcised. My covenant will be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.The uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his people. He has broken my covenant.”

The sons of Leah: Reuben( Jacob’s firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.The sons of Bilhah( Rachel’s servant): Dan and Naphtali.The sons of Zilpah( Leah’s servant): Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Paddan Aram.

They traveled from Bethel. There was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and Rachel travailed. She had hard labor.

“ Brothers, I may tell you freely of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.

For this is a word of promise,“ At the appointed time I will come, and Sarah will have a son.”Not only so, but Rebekah also conceived by one, by our father Isaac.For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls,it was said to her,“ The elder will serve the younger.”Even as it is written,“ Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

Yahweh saw that Leah was hated, and he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren.Leah conceived, and bore a son, and she named him Reuben. For she said,“ Because Yahweh has looked at my affliction; for now my husband will love me.”She conceived again, and bore a son, and said,“ Because Yahweh has heard that I am hated, he has therefore given me this son also.” She named him Simeon.She conceived again, and bore a son. She said,“ Now this time my husband will be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons.” Therefore his name was called Levi.She conceived again, and bore a son. She said,“ This time I will praise Yahweh.” Therefore she named him Judah. Then she stopped bearing.When Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister. She said to Jacob,“ Give me children, or else I will die.”Jacob’s anger burned against Rachel, and he said,“ Am I in God’s place, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?”She said,“ Behold, my maid Bilhah. Go in to her, that she may bear on my knees, and I also may obtain children by her.”She gave him Bilhah her servant as wife, and Jacob went in to her.Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.Rachel said,“ God has judged me, and has also heard my voice, and has given me a son.” Therefore she called his name Dan.Bilhah, Rachel’s servant, conceived again, and bore Jacob a second son.Rachel said,“ I have wrestled with my sister with mighty wrestlings, and have prevailed.” She named him Naphtali.When Leah saw that she had finished bearing, she took Zilpah, her servant, and gave her to Jacob as a wife.Zilpah, Leah’s servant, bore Jacob a son.Leah said,“ How fortunate!” She named him Gad.Zilpah, Leah’s servant, bore Jacob a second son.Leah said,“ Happy am I, for the daughters will call me happy.” She named him Asher.Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother, Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah,“ Please give me some of your son’s mandrakes.”Leah said to her,“ Is it a small matter that you have taken away my husband? Would you take away my son’s mandrakes, also?” Rachel said,“ Therefore he will lie with you tonight for your son’s mandrakes.”Jacob came from the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said,“ You must come in to me; for I have surely hired you with my son’s mandrakes.” He lay with her that night.God listened to Leah, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.Leah said,“ God has given me my hire, because I gave my servant to my husband.” She named him Issachar.Leah conceived again, and bore a sixth son to Jacob.Leah said,“ God has endowed me with a good dowry. Now my husband will live with me, because I have borne him six sons.” She named him Zebulun.Afterwards, she bore a daughter, and named her Dinah.God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and opened her womb.She conceived, bore a son, and said,“ God has taken away my reproach.”She named him Joseph, saying,“ May Yahweh add another son to me.”

Yahweh visited Sarah as he had said, and Yahweh did to Sarah as he had spoken.Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.

Abraham became the father of Isaac. The sons of Isaac: Esau and Israel.

Isaac entreated Yahweh for his wife, because she was barren. Yahweh was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.The children struggled together within her. She said,“ If it is like this, why do I live?” She went to inquire of Yahweh.Yahweh said to her,“ Two nations are in your womb. Two peoples will be separated from your body. The one people will be stronger than the other people. The elder will serve the younger.”When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.After that, his brother came out, and his hand had hold on Esau’s heel. He was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

How then was it counted? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

Brothers, speaking of human terms, though it is only a man’s covenant, yet when it has been confirmed, no one makes it void or adds to it.

Abraham became the father of Isaac. Isaac became the father of Jacob. Jacob became the father of Judah and his brothers.

Now consider how great this man was, to whom even Abraham, the patriarch, gave a tenth out of the best plunder.

As her soul was departing( for she died), she named him Benoni, but his father named him Benjamin.

Moses has given you circumcision( not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.

Now these are the names of the sons of Israel, who came into Egypt( every man and his household came with Jacob):Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher.

These are the sons of Israel: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun,Dan, Joseph, Benjamin, Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.

Now I say this: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God in Christ, the law, which came four hundred thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.
