6Thenf Abraham hastened into the tent to Sarah, and he said, “Quickly—make three seahs of fine flour for kneading and make bread cakes!” 7And Abraham ran to the cattle and took a calf,g tender and good, and gave it to the servant, and he made haste to prepare it. 8Then he took curds and milk, and the calf which he prepared, and set it before them. And he was standing by them under the tree whileh they ate. 9And they said to him, “Where is Sarah your wife?” And he said, “Here, in the tent.” 10And hei said, “I will certainly return to you in the spring,j and look, Sarah your wife will have a son.” Now Sarah was listening at the doorway of the tent, and which was behind him. 11Now Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in age;k the way of womenl had ceased to be for Sarah. 12Som Sarah laughed to herself saying, “After I am worn out and my husband is old, shall this pleasure be to me?” 13Then Yahweh said to Abraham, “What is this that Sarah laughed, saying, ‘Is it indeed true that I will bear a child, now that I have grown old?’ 14Is anything too difficult for Yahweh? At the appointed time I will return to you in the springn and Sarah shall have a son.” 15But Sarah denied it, saying, “I did not laugh,” because she was afraid. Heo said, “No, but you did laugh.”
