10 One of them said, |I will surely return to you when the season comes round again, and your wife Sarah will have a son!| (Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, not far behind him.

11 Abraham and Sarah were old and advancing in years; Sarah had long since passed menopause.)

12 So Sarah laughed to herself, thinking, |After I am worn out will I have pleasure, especially when my husband is old too?|

13 The LORD said to Abraham, |Why did Sarah laugh and say, 'Will I really have a child when I am old?'

14 Is anything impossible for the LORD? I will return to you when the season comes round again and Sarah will have a son.|
