Genesis 17:15-17

EasyEnglish Bible

God changes Sarai's name to Sarah

¹⁵ Then God said to Abraham, ‘As for your wife, do not call her Sarai any more. Instead, her name will be Sarah. ¹⁶ I will bless her. She will give birth to a son for you. Many nations of people will be her descendants. Some of them will become kings. That is how much I will bless her!’

¹⁷ Abraham fell down so that his face touched the ground. He laughed and he said to himself, ‘I am now 100 years old. That is too old to have a son. Sarah is 90 years old, so she could never give birth to a child. That is too old to have a child.’
