*
And he said ,
I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life ;
and ,
lo ,
Sarah thy wife shall have a son .
And Sarah heard it in the tent door ,
which was behind him .
*
Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age ;
and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women .
*
Therefore Sarah laughed within herself ,
saying ,
After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure ,
my lord being old also ?
*
And the LORD said unto Abraham ,
Wherefore did Sarah laugh ,
saying ,
Shall I of a surety bear a child ,
which am old ?
*
Is #
any thing too hard for the LORD ?
At the time appointed I will return unto thee ,
according to the time of life ,
and Sarah shall have a son .
*
Then Sarah denied ,
saying ,
I laughed not ;
for she was afraid .
And he said ,
Nay ;
but thou didst laugh .
*
And the men rose up from thence ,
and looked toward Sodom :
and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way .
*
And the LORD said ,
Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do ;
*
Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation ,
and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him ?
*
For I know him ,
that he will command his children and his household after him ,
and they shall keep the way of the LORD ,
to do justice and judgment ;
that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him .
*
And the LORD said ,
Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great ,
and because their sin is very grievous ;
