Genesis 18:12 in Context — Genesis 18
10 L’un d’entre eux dit: Je reviendrai vers toi à cette même époque; et voici, Sara, ta femme, aura un fils. Sara écoutait à l’entrée de la tente, qui était derrière lui.
11 Abraham et Sara étaient vieux, avancés en âge: et Sara ne pouvait plus espérer avoir des enfants.
12 Elle rit en elle-même, en disant: Maintenant que je suis vieille, aurais-je encore des désirs? Mon seigneur aussi est vieux.
13 L’Éternel dit à Abraham: Pourquoi donc Sara a-t-elle ri, en disant: Est-ce que vraiment j’aurais un enfant, moi qui suis vieille?
14 Y a-t-il rien qui soit étonnant de la part de l’Éternel? Au temps fixé je reviendrai vers toi, à cette même époque; et Sara aura un fils.
