Genesis 17:15 in Context — Genesis 17

13 Deve ser circuncidado o nascido em tua casa, e o comprado por teu dinheiro: e estará meu pacto em vossa carne para aliança perpétua.

14 E o macho incircunciso que não houver circuncidado a carne de seu prepúcio, aquela pessoa será exterminada de seu povo; violou meu pacto.

15 Disse também Deus a Abraão: A Sarai tua mulher não a chamarás Sarai, mas Sara será seu nome.

16 E a abençoarei, e também te darei dela filho; sim, a abençoarei, e virá a ser mãe de nações; dela surgirão reis de povos.

17 Então Abraão postrou-se com o rosto ao chão, riu, e disse em seu coração: A um homem de cem anos nasceráfilho? E Sara, já de noventa anos, há de dar à luz?
