Génesis 17:1-7

Listen to Génesis 17:1-7
1 De Abram a «Abraham»
Cuando Abram tenía noventa y nueve años, el Señor
se le apareció y le dijo: «Yo soy El-Shaddai, “Dios Todopoderoso”. Sírveme con fidelidad y lleva una vida intachable.
2 Yo haré un pacto contigo, por medio del cual garantizo darte una descendencia incontable».
3 Al oír eso, Abram cayó rostro en tierra. Después Dios le dijo:
4 «Este es mi pacto contigo: ¡te haré el padre de una multitud de naciones!
5 Además, cambiaré tu nombre. Ya no será Abram, sino que te llamarás Abraham,
porque serás el padre de muchas naciones.
6 Te haré sumamente fructífero. Tus descendientes llegarán a ser muchas naciones, ¡y de ellos surgirán reyes!
7 »Yo confirmaré mi pacto contigo y con tus descendientes
después de ti, de generación en generación. Este es el pacto eterno: yo siempre seré tu Dios y el Dios de todos tus descendientes,
