Ihr sollt aber die Vorhaut an eurem Fleisch beschneiden. Das soll ein Zeichen sein des Bundes zwischen mir und euch.
Circuncidaréis, pues, la carne de vuestro prepucio, y será por señal del pacto entre mí y vosotros.
Circuncidarán la carne de su prepucio, y esa será la señal del pacto entre ustedes y yo.
Vous vous circoncirez; et ce sera un signe d'alliance entre moi et vous.
E voi circonciderete la carne del vostro prepuzio, e ciò sarà per segno del patto fra me a voi.
E circuncidareis a carne do vosso prepúcio; e isto será por sinal da aliança entre mim e vós.
你們要割去肉體的包皮,這是我與你們立約的記號。
