01:017:021 But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah
shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.
01:017:022 And he left off talking with him, and God went up from
Abraham.
01:017:023 And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all that were born in
his house, and all that were bought with his money, every male among the
men of Abraham's house; and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in
the selfsame day, as God had said unto him.
01:017:024 And Abraham was ninety years old and nine, when he was
circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
01:017:025 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old, when he was
circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.
01:017:026 In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his
son.
01:017:027 And all the men of his house, born in the house, and bought
with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.
01:018:001 And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he
sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;
01:018:002 And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood
by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door,
and bowed himself toward the ground,
01:018:003 And said, My LORD, if now I have found favour in thy sight,
pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:
01:018:004 Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your
feet, and rest yourselves under the tree:
01:018:005 And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your
hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your
servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
01:018:006 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make
ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon
the hearth.
01:018:007 And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetcht a calf tender and
good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hasted to dress it.
01:018:008 And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had
dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree,
and they did eat.
01:018:009 And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said,
Behold, in the tent.
01:018:010 And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to
the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah
heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.
01:018:011 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and
it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
01:018:012 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am
waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?
01:018:013 And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh,
saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?
01:018:014 Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I
will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall
have a son.
01:018:015 Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid.
And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.
