LESSON 9

Sarah Born Boy Child!

Sarah Born Boy Child!

Abraham and Sarah wor marry for plenty years. They leave their good home in Ur and started living in tent. But Sarah not complain, because she trust in Jehovah.

Sarah really wanted child until she tell Abraham say: ‘If my servant Hagar born, that child will be like my own child.’ After some time, Hagar born boy child and his name wor Ishmael.

After plenty years, when Abraham wor 99 years and Sarah wor 89 years old, three persons visit them. Abraham tell them to rest under one tree and he give them food to eat. You know who dem visit Abraham and Sarah? That wor angels! They tell Abraham say: ‘Next year this same time, you and your wife will born boy child.’ Sarah wor inside the tent listening. Then she laugh in her heart and say to herself: ‘I will really be able to born the way I old like this?’

The next year, Sarah born boy child, just how Jehovah angel say it. Abraham name him Isaac, and it mean “Laugh.”

When Isaac wor about five years old, Sarah see Ishmael making fun out of her son. She wanted to protect her son, so she tell Abraham to put Hagar and her son Ishmael outside. First, Abraham not wanted to do it. But Jehovah tell Abraham say: ‘Listen to Sarah. I will take care of Ishmael. But that through Isaac the promise dem I made to you will come true.’

“By faith also Sarah received power to conceive offspring, . . . since she considered Him faithful who made the promise.”​—Hebrews 11:11
