Genesis 17:19

Context

17:19 God said, “No, Sarah your wife is going to bear you a son, and you will name him Isaac. 1  I will confirm my covenant with him as a perpetual 2  covenant for his descendants after him.

1 tn Heb “will call his name Isaac.” The name means “he laughs,” or perhaps “may he laugh” (see the note on the word “laughed” in v. 17).

2 tn Or “as an eternal.”
