So Sarah laughed to herself, saying, y “After I am worn out, and z my lord is old, shall I have pleasure?” 13The LORD said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Shall I indeed bear a child, now that I am old?’ 14 a Is anything too hard [4] for the LORD? b At the appointed time I will return to you, about this time next year, and Sarah shall have a son.” 15But Sarah denied it, [5] saying, “I did not laugh,” for she was afraid. He said, “No, but you did laugh.”
God is not fooled by denial.
