6And Abraham hasteth towards the tent, unto Sarah, and saith, ‘Hasten three measures of flour-meal, knead, and make cakes;’ 7and Abraham ran unto the herd, and taketh a son of the herd, tender and good, and giveth unto the young man, and he hasteth to prepare it; 8and he taketh butter and milk, and the son of the herd which he hath prepared, and setteth before them; and he is standing by them under the tree, and they do eat.

9And they say unto him, ‘Where is Sarah thy wife?’ and he saith, ‘Lo—in the tent;’ 10and he saith, ‘returning I return unto thee, about the time of life, and lo, to Sarah thy wife a son.’ 11And Sarah is hearkening at the opening of the tent, which is behind him; 12and Abraham and Sarah are aged, entering into days—the way of women hath ceased to be to Sarah; 13and Sarah laugheth in her heart, saying, ‘After I have waxed old I have had pleasure!—my lord also is old!’ 14And Jehovah saith unto Abraham, ‘Why is this? Sarah hath laughed, saying, Is it true really—I bear—and I am aged? Is any thing too wonderful for Jehovah? at the appointed time I return unto thee, about the time of life, and Sarah hath a son.’ 15And Sarah denieth, saying, ‘I did not laugh;’ for she hath been afraid; and He saith, ‘Nay, but thou didst laugh.’
