Genesis 18:12

Context
18:12 So Sarah laughed to herself, thinking, 1  “After I am worn out will I have pleasure, 2  especially when my husband is old too?” 3 

1 tn Heb “saying.”

2 tn It has been suggested that this word should be translated “conception,” not “pleasure.” See A. A. McIntosh, “A Third Root ‘adah in Biblical Hebrew,” VT 24 (1974): 454-73.

3 tn The word “too” has been added in the translation for stylistic reasons.
