12SarahH8283 laughedH6711 4to herselfH7130, sayingH559, “5AfterH310 I have becomeH1086 oldH1086, shall I haveH1961 pleasureH5734, my 6lordH113 beingH2204 oldH2204 also?”

13And the LordH3068 saidH559 to AbrahamH85, “WhyH4100 did SarahH8283 laughH6711, sayingH559, ‘Shall I indeedH637H552 7bearH3205 a child, when I amH2204 so oldH2204?’

148Is anythingH1697 tooH4480 9difficultH6381 for the LordH3068? At the 10appointedH4150 timeH4150 I will returnH7725 to you, 11at thisH2416 timeH6256 nextH2416 yearH2416, and SarahH8283 will have a sonH1121.”
