17.15 Sarai uxorem tuam, etc. ISID. Declaratur promissio de vocatione gentium in Isaac filio promissionis, id est gratiæ, non naturæ, quia de sene patre et sterili matre: et quia hoc non per generationem, sicut Ismæl, sed per regenerationem futurum erat, imperata est circumcisio, quando Saræ filius promittitur in typo Ecclesiæ, non quando Ismæl, qui typus Judæorum. HIERON.-ISID. Errant qui putant primum Saram per unum r scriptum fuisse, et postea additum esse alterum r. Et quia r apud Græcos centum significat, multas super hoc nomine suspicantur ineptias, cum et utcunque velint vocabulum commutatum, non Græcam, sed Hebraicam debet habere rationem. Hebræum est enim. Nemo enim altera lingua quemlibet vocans, etymologiam vocabuli sumit ex altera. Sarai ergo primum vocata est per scin, res, iod. Sublata ergo iod addita est he littera, quæ pro a legitur, et vocata est Sara. Antea enim dicebatur princeps mea, quia quasi unius familiæ mater: postea absolute princeps, omnium scilicet gentium princeps futura. Quidam pessime suspicantur eam prius lepram fuisse vocatam, et postea principem, cum lepra sarai dicatur, quod in nostra lingua videtur habere aliquam similitudinem, sed Hebræo penitus est diversa. Scribitur enim per zadich et ain et res et tau; quod a tribus superioribus, id est, schin, res et he, quibus scribitur Sara, manifeste distat.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

17:1-27 God now gave the family signs that the promises would be fulfilled. He changed Abram’s name to Abraham (17:1-8), instituted the rite of circumcision as the sign of the covenant (17:9-14, 23-27), and changed Sarai’s name to Sarah (17:15-22).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠יֹּ֤אמֶר אֱלֹהִים֙ אֶל אַבְרָהָ֔ם

and=he/it_said ʼₑlhīmv to/towards ʼAⱱrāhām

Alternate translation: “Later God also said to Abraham,”

שָׂרַ֣י אִשְׁתְּ⁠ךָ֔

Sarai wife,your

This phrase is first in this quote to change the focus to Sarai and emphasize her. Consider what is the best way to do this in your language.

לֹא תִקְרָ֥א אֶת שְׁמָ֖⁠הּ שָׂרָ֑י

not call DOM his/its=name Sarai

Alternate translation: “her name will no longer be Sarai,”

כִּ֥י שָׂרָ֖ה שְׁמָֽ⁠הּ

that/for/because/then/when Sārāh his/its=name

Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “because from now on her name will be Sarah.” or “Rather her name is now Sarah.” or “Rather, from now on it will be Sarah.”
