Genesis 18:9-14 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

9. Then they asked him, “Where is your wife Sarah?”“She is there in the tent,” he answered.

10. One of them said, “Nine months from now I will come back, and your wife Sarah will have a son.”Sarah was behind him, at the door of the tent, listening.

11. Abraham and Sarah were very old, and Sarah had stopped having her monthly periods.

12. So Sarah laughed to herself and said, “Now that I am old and worn out, can I still enjoy sex? And besides, my husband is old too.”

13. Then the Lord asked Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Can I really have a child when I am so old?’

14. Is anything too hard for the Lord? As I said, nine months from now I will return, and Sarah will have a son.”
