Genesis 21.1-7 | The Promise Study Edition | Contemporary English Version

Sarah Has a Son

21 The Lord was good to Sarah and kept his promise. 2 Although Abraham was very old, Sarah had a son exactly at the time God had said. 3 Abraham named his son Isaac, 4 and when the boy was eight days old, Abraham circumcised him, just as the Lord had commanded.
5 Abraham was a hundred years old when Isaac was born, 6 and Sarah said, “God has made me laugh.[a] Now everyone will laugh with me. 7 Who would have dared to tell Abraham that someday I would have a child? But in his old age, I have given him a son.”
