Genesis 17:17-19

International Children’s Bible

¹⁷ Abraham bowed facedown on the ground and laughed. He said to himself, “Can a man have a child when he is 100 years old? Can Sarah give birth to a child when she is 90?” ¹⁸ Then Abraham said to God, “Please let Ishmael be the son you promised.”

¹⁹ God said, “No. Sarah your wife will have a son, and you will name him Isaac.^[a] I will make my agreement with him. It will be an agreement that continues forever with all his descendants.
