1 And Jehovah appeared unto him by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:1|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:1}}]]
  
2 and he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood over against him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself to the earth,

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:4|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:4}}]]
  
5 and I will fetch a morsel of bread, and strengthen ye your heart; after that ye shall pass on: forasmuch as ye are come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.

6 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes.

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:6|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:6}}]]
  
7 And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetched a calf tender and good, and gave it unto the servant; and he hasted to dress it.
+
[[{{{PAGENAME}}:7|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:7}}]]
  
8 And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:8|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:8}}]]

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:9|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:9}}]]

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:10|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:10}}]]
  
11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old, `and' well stricken in age; it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
+
[[{{{PAGENAME}}:11|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:11}}]]
  
12 And Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:12|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:12}}]]
  
13 And Jehovah said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, who am old?

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:13|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:13}}]]
  
14 Is anything too hard for Jehovah? At the set time I will return unto thee, when the season cometh round, and Sarah shall have a son.

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:14|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:14}}]]
  
15 Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:17|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:17}}]]

[[{{{PAGENAME}}:24|{{#scripture:{{PAGENAME}}:24}}]]
  
25 That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked, that so the righteous should be as the wicked; that be far from thee: shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
