Genesis  


16 : 1 Now Sarai, Abram`s wife had borne him no children, and she had an Egyptian maid whose name was Hagar.
16 : 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.
16 : 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.
16 : 4 He went in to Hagar, and she conceived; and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her sight.
16 : 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."
16 : 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.
16 : 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.
16 : 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."
16 : 9 Then the angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit yourself to her authority."
16 : 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."
16 : 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.
16 : 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.
16 : 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?"
16 : 14 Therefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
16 : 15 So Hagar bore Abram a son; and Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.
16 : 16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to him.
