¹⁹ Then God said: “No, ^(A)Sarah your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac; I will establish My ^(B)covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his descendants after him.

²¹ But My ^(A)covenant I will establish with Isaac, ^(B)whom Sarah shall bear to you at this ^(C)set time next year.”

¹⁰ And He said, “I will certainly return to you ^(A)according to the time of life, and behold, ^(B)Sarah your wife shall have a son.”

(Sarah was listening in the tent door which was behind him.)

^14 (A)Is anything too hard for the Lord? ^(B)At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.”

²³ But he who was of the bondwoman ^(A)was born according to the flesh, ^(B)and he of the freewoman through promise,

²⁸ Now ^(A)we, brethren, as Isaac was, are ^(B)children of promise.
