17:1	Ἐγένετο δὲ Ἀβρὰμ ἐτῶν ἐνενήκοντα ἐννέα, καὶ ὤφθη Κύριος τῷ Ἀβρὰμ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ θεός σου· εὐαρέστει ἐναντίον ἐμοῦ, καὶ γίνου ἄμεμπτος·
17:2	καὶ καὶ θήσομαι τὴν διαθήκην μου ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον σοῦ, καὶ πληθυνῶ σε σφόδρα.
17:3	καὶ ἔπεσεν Ἀβρὰμ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς λέγων
17:4	Καὶ ἐγώ, ἡ διαθήκη μου μετὰ σοῦ· καὶ ἔσῃ πατὴρ πλήθους ἐθνῶν.
17:5	καὶ οὐ κληθήσεται ἔτι τὸ ὄνομά σου Ἁβράμ, ἀλλ’ ἔσται Ἀβραὰμ τὸ ὄνομα σου· ὅτι πατέρα πολλῶν ἐθνῶν τέθεικά σε.
17:6	καὶ αὐξάνω σε σφόδρα καὶ θήσω σε εἰς ἔθνη, καὶ βασιλεῖς ἐκ σοῦ ἐξελεύσονται.
17:7	καὶ στήσω τὴν διαθήκην μου ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον σοῦ καὶ ἀνὰ τοῦ σπέρματός σου μετὰ σὲ εἰς γενεὰς αὐτῶν εἰς διαθήκην αἰώνιον, εἶναί σου θεὸς καὶ τοῦ σπέρματός σου μετὰ σέ.
17:8	καὶ δώσω σοι τῷ σπέρματί σου μετὰ σὲ τὴν γῆν ἢν παροικεῖς, πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν κατάσχεσιν εἰς κατάσχεσιν αἰώνιον· καὶ ἕσομαι αὐτοῖς θεός.
17:9	καὶ εἶπεν ὁ θεὸς πρὸς Ἀβραάμ Σὺ δὲ τὴν διαθήκην μου διατηρήσεις, σὺ καὶ τὸ σπέρμα σου μετὰ σὲ εἰς τὰς γενεὰς αὐτῶν.
17:10	καὶ αὕτη ἡ διαθήκη διατηρήσεις ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ ὑμῶν, καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ σπέρματός σου μετὰ σὲ εἰς τὰς γενεὰς αὐτῶν· περιτμηθήσεται ὑμῶν πᾶν ἀρσενικόν.
17:11	καὶ περιτμηθήσεσθε τὴν σάρκα τῆς ἀκροβυστίας ὑμῶν, καὶ ἔσται ἐν σημείῳ διαθήκης ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ ὑμῶν.
17:12	καὶ παιδίον ὀκτὼ ἡμερῶν περιτμηθήσεται ὐμῖν πᾶν ἀρσενικὸν εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν· ὁ οἰκογενὴς τῆς οἰκίας σου καὶ ὁ ἀργυρώνητος ἀπὸ παντὸς υἱοῦ ἀλλοτρίου, ὄς οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματός σου,
17:13	περιτομῇ περιτμηθήσεται, ὁ οἰκογενὴς τῆς οἰκίας σου καὶ ὁ ἀργυρώνητος. καὶ ἔσται ἡ διαθήκη μου ἐπὶ τῆς σαρκὸς ὑμῶν εἰς διαθήκην αἰώνιον.
17:14	καὶ ἀπερίτμητος, ἄρσην, ὃς οὐ περιτμηθήσεται τὴν σάρκα τῆς ἀκροβυστίας αὐτοῦ τῇ ἡμέρα τῇ ὀγδόῃ, ἐξολεθρευθήσεται ἡ ψυχὴ ἐκείνη ἐκ τοῦ γένους ὅτι τὴν διαθήκην μου διεσκέδασεν.
17:15	Εἶρεν δὲ ὁ θεὸς τῷ Ἀβραάμ Σάρα ἡ γυνή σου, οὐ κληθήσεται τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς Σάρα, ἀλλὰ Σάρρα ἔσται τὸ ὄνομα αm̓ῆς·
17:16	εὐλογήσω δὲ αὐτήν, καὶ δώσω σοι ἐξ αὐτῆς τέκνον. καὶ εὐλογήσω αὐτόν, καὶ ἔσται εἰς ἔθνη, κοὶ βασιλεῖς ἐθνῶν ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἔσονται.
17:17	καὶ ἔπεσεν Ἀβραὰμ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον κοὶ ἐγέλασεν καὶ εἶπεν ἐν τῇ διανοίᾳ αὐτοῦ λέγων.Εἰ τῷ ἑκατονταετεῖ γενήσεται υἱός, καὶ εἰ Σάρρᾳ ἐνενήκοντα ἐτῶν γενήσεται ;
17:18	εἶπεν δὲ Ἁβραἀμ τὸν θεόν Ἱσμαὴλ οὗτος ζήτω ἐναντίον σου.
17:19	εἶρεν δὲ ὁ θεὸς Ἀβραάμ Ναί· ἰδοὺ Σάρρα ἡ γυνή σου τέξεταί σοι υἱόν, καὶ καλέσεις τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἱσαάκ· καὶ σ,ήσω τὴν διαθήκην μου πρὸς αὐτὸν εἰς διαθήκην αἰώνιον, καὶ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ μετ’ αὐτόν.
17:20	πεπὶ δὲ ’lσμαὴλ ἰδοὺ ἐπήκουσά σου· καὶ εὐλόγησα αὐτόν, καὶ αὐξάνω αὐτὸν καὶ πληθυνῶ αὐτὸν σφόδρα· δώδεκα ἔθνη γεννήσει, καὶ δώσω αὐτὸν εἰς ἔθνος μέγα.
17:21	ἰτὴν δὲ διαθήκην μου στήσω πρὸς Ἱσαάκ, ὄν τέξεταί σοι Σάρρα εἰς τὸν καιρὸν τοῦτον ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ τῷ ἑτέρῳ.
17:22	συνετέδὲ λαλῶν πρὸς αὐτόν, καὶ ἀνέβη ὁ θεὸς ἀπὸ Ἁβραάμ.
17:23	Καὶ ν Ἀβραὰμ Ἱσμαὴλ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντας τοὺς οἰκογενεῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἀργυρωνήτους καὶ Καὶ ἄρσεν τῶν ἀνδρῶν τῶν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Ἀβραάμ, καὶ περιέτεμεν τὰς ἀκροβυστίας αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τῆς ἡμέρας ἐκείνης, καθὰ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ ὁ θεός.
17:24	'Αβραάμ δὲ ἦν ἐνενήκοντα ἐννέα ἐτῶν, ἡνίκα περιέτεμεν τὴν σάρκα τῆς ἀκροβυστίας αὐτοῦ·
17:25	Ἱσμαὴλ δὲ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἐτῶν δέκα τριῶν ἦν, ἡνίκα περιτὴν σάρκα τῆς ἀκροβυστίας αὐτοῦ.
17:26	ἐν τῷ καιρῷ τῆς ἡμέρας περιετμήθη Ἀβραὰμ καὶ Ἱσμαὴλ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ·
17:27	καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄνδρες τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ οἰκογενεῖς καὶ οἱ ἀργυρώνητοι ἐξ ἀλλοἐθνῶν, περιέτεμεν αὐτούς.

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.

L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).

L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.

L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.

English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
