亞伯拉罕年老，到上帝對他說的那所定的時候，撒拉懷了孕，給他生了一個兒子。

到明年所定的時候，撒拉必為你生以撒，我要與他堅立我的約。」

這就是說，肉身所生的兒女不是上帝的兒女，惟獨那應許的兒女才算是後裔。因為所應許的話是這樣：「到明年這時候我要來，撒拉必會生一個兒子。」

上帝說：「不！你妻子撒拉必為你生一個兒子，你要給他起名叫以撒。我要與他堅立我的約，成為他後裔永遠的約。

以利沙說：「明年這時候，你必抱一個兒子。」她說：「神人，我主啊，不要這樣欺哄婢女。」婦人果然懷孕，到了明年那時候，生了一個兒子，正如以利沙向她所說的。

耶和華的使者向那婦人顯現，對她說：「看哪，以前你不懷孕，不生育，如今你必懷孕生一個兒子。現在你要謹慎，清酒烈酒都不可喝，任何不潔之物都不可吃，看哪，你必懷孕，生一個兒子。不可用剃刀剃他的頭，因為這孩子一出母胎就歸給上帝作拿細耳人。他必開始拯救以色列脫離非利士人的手。」

耶和華的使者對她說：「我必使你的後裔極其繁多，多到不可勝數。」

耶和華對亞伯拉罕說：「撒拉為甚麼竊笑，說：『我已年老，果真能生育嗎？』耶和華豈有難成的事嗎？到了所定的時候，我必回到你這裏。明年這時候，撒拉會生一個兒子。」
