In context

11Now Abraham and Sarah were old, well advanced in age. Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.

12Sarah laughed within herself, saying, “After I have grown old will I have pleasure, my lord being old also?”

13The LORD said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, saying, ‘Will I really bear a child when I am old?’

14Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the set time I will return to you, when the season comes around, and Sarah will have a son.”

15Then Sarah denied it, saying, “I didn’t laugh,” for she was afraid. He said, “No, but you did laugh.”
