Gênesis 18:13 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 18:13

And the Lord said unto Abraham
This discovers who the person was that had been conversing with Abraham, that he was a divine Person, as appears by his name "Jehovah", as well as by his knowledge of Sarah's behaviour; he did not turn himself to her, that it might be more manifest that it was not upon the sight of her he judged she laughed, but from his own omniscience; and he chose rather to speak to her husband than to her, appearing as a stranger, and that he might reprove her: wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, shall I of a surety bear a child,
which am old?
suggesting there was no reason for it, and signifying his displeasure and indignation at it.

12 Por isso riu consigo mesma, quando pensou: “Depois de já estar velha e meu senhor já idoso, ainda terei esse prazer?”

13 Mas o SENHOR disse a Abraão: “Por que Sara riu e disse: ‘Poderei realmente dar à luz, agora que sou idosa?’

14 Existe alguma coisa impossível para o SENHOR? Na primavera voltarei a você, e Sara terá um filho”.
