1 Now Sarai * h8297 Abram's * h87 wife * h802 bare * h3205 him no * h3808 children * h3205 h8804: and she had an handmaid * h8198, an Egyptian * h4713, whose name * h8034 was Hagar * h1904.
2 And Sarai * h8297 said * h559 h8799 unto Abram * h87, Behold now, the LORD * h3068 hath restrained me * h6113 h8804 from bearing * h3205 h8800: I pray thee, go in * h935 h8798 unto my maid * h8198; it may * h194 be that I may obtain children * h1129 h8735 by her. And Abram * h87 hearkened * h8085 h8799 to the voice * h6963 of Sarai * h8297. obtain...: Heb. be built by her
3 And Sarai * h8297 Abram's * h87 wife * h802 took * h3947 h8799 Hagar * h1904 her maid * h8198 the Egyptian * h4713, after * h7093 Abram * h87 had dwelt * h3427 h8800 ten * h6235 years * h8141 in the land * h776 of Canaan * h3667, and gave * h5414 h8799 her to her husband * h376 Abram * h87 to be his wife * h802.
4 And he went in * h935 h8799 unto Hagar * h1904, and she conceived * h2029 h8799: and when she saw * h7200 h8799 that she had conceived * h2029 h8804, her mistress * h1404 was despised * h7043 h8799 in her eyes * h5869.
5 And Sarai * h8297 said * h559 h8799 unto Abram * h87, My wrong * h2555 be upon thee: I have given * h5414 h8804 my maid * h8198 into thy bosom * h2436; and when she saw * h7200 h8799 that she had conceived * h2029 h8804, I was despised * h7043 h8799 in her eyes * h5869: the LORD * h3068 judge * h8199 h8799 between me and thee.
6 But Abram * h87 said * h559 h8799 unto Sarai * h8297, Behold, thy maid * h8198 is in thy hand * h3027; do * h6213 h8798 to her as it pleaseth thee * h2896 * h5869. And when Sarai * h8297 dealt hardly with * h6031 h8762 her, she fled * h1272 h8799 from her face * h6440. as...: Heb. that which is good in thine eyes dealt...: Heb. afflicted her
7 And the angel * h4397 of the LORD * h3068 found her * h4672 h8799 by a fountain * h5869 of water * h4325 in the wilderness * h4057, by the fountain * h5869 in the way * h1870 to Shur * h7793.
8 And he said * h559 h8799, Hagar * h1904, Sarai's * h8297 maid * h8198, whence * h335 camest thou * h935 h8804? and whither wilt thou go * h3212 h8799? And she said * h559 h8799, I flee * h1272 h8802 from the face * h6440 of my mistress * h1404 Sarai * h8297.
9 And the angel * h4397 of the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto her, Return * h7725 h8798 to thy mistress * h1404, and submit * h6031 h8690 thyself under her hands * h3027.
10 And the angel * h4397 of the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto her, I will multiply * h7235 h8686 thy seed * h2233 exceedingly * h7235 h8687, that it shall not be numbered * h5608 h8735 for multitude * h7230.
11 And the angel * h4397 of the LORD * h3068 said * h559 h8799 unto her, Behold * h2009, thou art with child * h2030, and shalt bear * h3205 h8802 a son * h1121, and shalt call * h7121 h8804 his name * h8034 Ishmael * h3458; because the LORD * h3068 hath heard * h8085 h8804 thy affliction * h6040. Ishmael: that is, God shall hear
12 And he will be a wild * h6501 man * h120; his hand * h3027 will be against every man, and every man's hand * h3027 against him; and he shall dwell * h7931 h8799 in the presence * h6440 of all his brethren * h251.
13 And she called * h7121 h8799 the name * h8034 of the LORD * h3068 that spake * h1696 h8802 unto her, Thou God * h410 seest me * h7210: for she said * h559 h8804, Have I also here * h1988 looked * h7200 h8804 after him * h310 that seeth me * h7210?
14 Wherefore the well * h875 was called * h7121 h8804 Beerlahairoi * h883 * h2416; behold, it is between Kadesh * h6946 and Bered * h1260. Beerlahairoi: that is, The well of him that liveth and seeth me
15 And Hagar * h1904 bare * h3205 h8799 Abram * h87 a son * h1121: and Abram * h87 called * h7121 h8799 his son's * h1121 name * h8034, which Hagar * h1904 bare * h3205 h8804, Ishmael * h3458.
16 And Abram * h87 was fourscore * h8084 * h8141 and six * h8337 years * h8141 old * h1121, when Hagar * h1904 bare * h3205 h8800 Ishmael * h3458 to Abram * h87.
