When God specified that Sarah would bear her husband a son, “Abraham fell upon his face and began to laugh and to say in his heart: ‘ Will a man a hundred years old have a child born, and will Sarah, yes, will a woman ninety years old give birth? ’ ”
Kad Dievs pateica, ka Sāra dzemdēs savam vīram dēlu, ” Ābrahāms nometās uz savu vaigu, pasmējās un domāja savā sirdī: kā tad simts gadus vecam var vēl bērni būt, un kā Sāra, kuŗai ir deviņdesmit gadi, varētu vēl dzemdēt ”. ( 1. Mozus 17: 17.)
