1 And Jehovah will be seen to him at the oaks of Mamra: and he will sit at the entrance of his tent at the heat of the day. 2 And he shall lift up his eyes and shall see, and behold, three men stood by him: and he will see and will run to meet them from the door of the tent, and will bow himself to the earth. 3 And he will say, Lord, if now I found grace in thine eyes, now thou wilt not pass away from thy servant. 4 Now he shall take a little water, and will wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree. 5 And I will take a bit of food, and strengthen your heart, afterwards ye shall pass away; for, for this ye passed over to your servant And they will say, Thou shalt do according to what thou saidst. 6 And Abraham will hasten to the tent to Sarah, and will say, Hasten thou measures of the finest flour; knead and make cakes. 7 And Abraham running to the oxen, will take the son of a cow, tender and good, and will give to the youth, and he will hasten to do it. 8 And he will take curdled milk, and new milk, and the son of the cow which he did, and he will give before their face; and he stood by them under the tree, and they shall eat. 9 And they will say to him, Where is Sarah thy wife? and he will say, Behold, in the tent. 10 And he will say, Returning, I will return to thee according to the time of life; and behold, a son to Sarah thy wife. And Sarah heard at the door of the tent, and she behind him. 11 And Abraham and Sarah were old, being gone in days; the way according to women ceased to be to Sarah. 12 And Sarah will laugh within her, saying, After it has not been to me till now, and my lord, being old. 13 And Jehovah will say to Abraham, For what did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall truly even I bring forth, and I have become old?
