Then he took curds and milk and the calf that he had prepared, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree while they ate.  They said to him, "Where is your wife Sarah?" And he said, "There, in the tent."  Then one said, "I will surely return to you in due season, and your wife Sarah shall have a son  [NRSV, Genesis 18:8-10a]."
