1
Now Sarai,
Abram's
wife
had borne
him no
children, and she had an Egyptian
maid
whose name
was Hagar.
2
So Sarai
said
to Abram,
"Now
behold,
the LORD
has prevented
me from bearing
children. Please
go
in to my maid;
perhaps
I will obtain children
through
her." And Abram
listened
to the voice
of Sarai.
3
After
Abram
had lived
ten
years
in the land
of Canaan,
Abram
's
wife
Sarai
took
Hagar
the Egyptian,
her maid,
and gave
her to her husband
Abram
as his
wife
.
4
He went
in to Hagar,
and she conceived;
and when she saw
that she had conceived,
her mistress
was despised
in her sight.
5
And Sarai
said
to Abram,
"May the wrong
done me be upon you. I gave
my maid
into your arms,
but when she saw
that she had conceived,
I was despised
in her sight.
May the LORD
judge
between
you and me."
6
But Abram
said
to Sarai,
"Behold,
your maid
is in your power;
do
to her what is good
in your sight."
So Sarai
treated her harshly,
and she fled
from her presence.
7
Now the angel
of the LORD
found
her by a spring
of water
in the wilderness,
by the spring
on the way
to Shur.
8
He said,
"Hagar,
Sarai's
maid,
where
have you come
from and
where
are you going?"
And she said,
"I am fleeing
from the presence
of my mistress
Sarai."
9
Then the angel
of the LORD
said
to her, "Return
to your mistress,
and submit
yourself to her authority."
10
Moreover, the angel
of the LORD
said
to her, "I will greatly
multiply
your descendants
so that they will be too
many
to count."
11
The angel
of
the LORD
said
to her further, "Behold,
you are with child,
And you will bear
a son;
And you shall call
his name
Ishmael,
Because
the LORD
has given heed
to your affliction.
12
"He will be a wild donkey
of a man,
His
hand
will be against everyone,
And everyone's
hand
will be against him; And he will live
to the east
of all
his brothers."
13
Then she called
the name
of the LORD
who
spoke
to her, "You are a God
who
sees";
for she said,
"Have I even
remained alive
here
after
seeing
Him?"
14
Therefore
the well
was called
Beer-lahai-roi;
behold,
it is between
Kadesh
and Bered.
15
So
Hagar
bore
Abram
a son;
and
Abram
called
the name
of his son,
whom
Hagar
bore
,
Ishmael.
16
Abram
was eighty-six
years
old
when Hagar
bore
Ishmael
to him.
