Genesis 18:12-14
International Standard Version
12 That’s why Sarah laughed to herself, thinking, “After I’m so old and my husband is old, too, am I going to have sex?”[a]
13 The Lord asked Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and think, ‘Am I really going to bear a child, since I’m so old?’ 14 Is anything impossible[b] for the Lord? At the time set for it, I will return to you—about a year from now—and Sarah will have a son.”

12 So Sarah laughed(A) to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my lord(B) is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
13 Then the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Will I really have a child, now that I am old?’(C) 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord?(D) I will return to you at the appointed time next year,(E) and Sarah will have a son.”(F)
