Genesis 18:8-10
The Voice
8 When it was ready, Abraham took curds and milk, along with the meat, and he placed all of this lavish feast before his honored guests. He stood nearby under the tree while they ate to their fill.
Three Men: 9 Where is Sarah, your wife?
Abraham: She’s right in there . . . in the tent.
One of the Men: 10 I will return here to you when life emerges from the womb[a] of your wife, Sarah. She will give birth to a son.[b]
Now Sarah was behind her guests, listening to all of this from the entrance of the tent.
