6
And Abraham went quickly into the tent to Sarah and said, "Quick! Three seahs of fine flour! Knead it, and make cakes."
7
And Abraham ran to the herd and took a calf, tender and good, and gave it to a young man, who prepared it quickly.
8
Then he took curds and milk and the calf that he had prepared, and set it before them. And he stood by them under the tree while they ate.
9
They said to him, "Where is Sarah your wife?" And he said, "She is
1in the tent."
10
The LORD said, "I will surely return to you
2about this time next year, and
3Sarah your wife shall have a son." And Sarah was listening at the tent door behind him.
11
Now
4Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in years. The way of women had ceased to be with Sarah.
12
5So Sarah laughed to herself, saying,
6"After I am worn out, and
7my lord is old, shall I have pleasure?"
13
The LORD said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh and say, 'Shall I indeed bear a child, now that I am old?'
14
8Is anything too hard for the LORD?
9At the appointed time I will return to you, about this time next year, and Sarah shall have a son."
15
But Sarah denied it, saying, "I did not laugh," for she was afraid. He said, "No, but you did laugh."
16
Then the men set out from there, and they looked down toward Sodom. And Abraham went with them to set them on their way.
