God Appears To Abraham

And the LORD appeared to him by the terebinths of Mamre, as he was sitting at the entrance of the tent in the heat of the day. And he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, three men were standing near him. And he saw, and he ran to meet them from the entrance of the tent, and he bowed down to the ground. And he said, "My lords, if now I have found favor in your eyes, please do not pass on from your servant. Let now a little water be taken, and wash your feet, and recline under the tree. And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and refresh your hearts; afterward you may pass on, since you have passed by your servant." And they said, "So do, as you have spoken." And Abraham hurried to the tent, to Sarah, and said, "Hurry, three seahs of fine flour, knead it, and make cakes." And to the herd Abraham ran, and he took a calf, tender and good, and gave it to the lad, and he hurried to prepare it. And he took curds and milk, and the calf that he had prepared, and set it before them, and he stood by them under the tree, and they ate. And they said to him, "Where is Sarah your wife?" And he said, "Behold, in the tent." And He said, "I will surely return to you at this season, when life is due, and behold, Sarah your wife shall have a son." And Sarah was listening at the entrance of the tent, which was behind him. And Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in days; it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women. And Sarah laughed within herself, saying, "After I am worn out shall I have pleasure, and my lord being old?" And the LORD said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, 'Shall I indeed bear a child, now that I am old?' Is anything too wondrous for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, when life is due, and Sarah shall have a son." And Sarah denied it, saying, "I did not laugh," for she was afraid. And He said, "No, but you did laugh."
