Genesis 18:13

Contemporary English Version 1995

The Lord asked Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh? Does she doubt that she can have a child in her old age?

See the chapter Copy

No one had to tell him what people were like. He already knew.

So she laughed and said to herself, “Now that I am worn out and my husband is old, will I really know such happiness?”

I am the Lord! There is nothing too difficult for me. I'll come back next year at the time I promised, and Sarah will already have a son.”

and Sarah said, “God has made me laugh. And now everyone will laugh with me.

Who would have dared to tell Abraham that someday I would have a child? But in his old age, I have given him a son.”
