Genesis 17:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 Then Abraham fell upon his face, and [a]laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him, that is an hundred years old? and shall Sarah that is ninety years old, bear?
18 And Abraham said unto God, Oh, that Ishmael might live in thy sight.
19 Then God said, (A)Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed, and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an [b]everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
