8 And he took butter and milk, and the calf which he had prepared, and set before them, and stood himself by them under the tree: and [a]they did eat.
9 ¶ Then they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he answered, Behold, she is in the tent.
10 And he said, (A)I will certainly come again unto thee according to the time of [b]life: and lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son: and Sarah heard in the tent door, which was behind him.
