- 1And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did to Sarah as he had spoken.
- 2For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
- 3And Abraham called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
- 4And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac, being eight days old, as God had commanded him.

- 5And Abraham was a hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born to him.
- 6And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me.
- 7And she said, Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah shall nurse children? for I have borne him a son in his old age.
- 8And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the day that Isaac was weaned.
- 9And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
- 10Wherefore, she said to Abraham, Cast out this bond-woman, and her son: for the son of this bond-woman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.
