11 Now (A)Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in age; Sarah was (B)past (a)childbearing. 12 Sarah laughed (b)to herself, saying, “(C)After I have become old, shall I have pleasure, my (D)lord being old also?” 13 And the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, saying, ‘Shall I indeed (c)bear a child, when I am so old?’ 14 (E)Is anything too (d)difficult for the Lord? At the (F)appointed time I will return to you, (e)at this time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”
