¹⁵And God said to Abraam, Sara thy wife—her name shall not be called Sara, Sarrha shall be her name.

¹⁷And Abraam fell upon his face, and laughed; and spoke in his heart, saying, Shall there be a child to one who is one hundred years old, and shall Sarrha who is ninety years old, bear?

¹⁸And Abraam said to God, Let this Ismael live before thee.

¹⁸And Abraam said to God, Let this Ismael live before you.
