Genesis 17:16
βAnd I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.β
KJV
Read in Genesis 17Meaning
God promises that Sarah will bear Abraham a son and that peoples and kings will come from her descendants.
Read carefully
This extraordinary promise to Sarah is part of a particular biblical narrative and should not be generalized into a guarantee of pregnancy or political power.
Reflection
The verse centers Sarah within the covenant future and emphasizes that the promised line will arise where the human situation appears unlikely.
