Genesis 16:1-16

Now Sarai
<08297>
Abram's
<087>
wife
<0802>
bare
<03205> (0)
him no
<03808>
children
<03205> (8804)_:
and she had an handmaid
<08198>_,
an Egyptian
<04713>_,
whose name
<08034>
[was] Hagar
<01904>_.
And Sarai
<08297>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Abram
<087>_,
Behold now, the LORD
<03068>
hath restrained me
<06113> (8804)
from bearing
<03205> (8800)_:
I pray thee, go in
<0935> (8798)
unto my maid
<08198>_;
it may
<0194>
be that I may obtain children
<01129> (8735)
by her. And Abram
<087>
hearkened
<08085> (8799)
to the voice
<06963>
of Sarai
<08297>_.
{obtain...: Heb. be built by her}
And Sarai
<08297>
Abram's
<087>
wife
<0802>
took
<03947> (8799)
Hagar
<01904>
her maid
<08198>
the Egyptian
<04713>_,
after
<07093>
Abram
<087>
had dwelt
<03427> (8800)
ten
<06235>
years
<08141>
in the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
her to her husband
<0376>
Abram
<087>
to be his wife
<0802>_.
And he went in
<0935> (8799)
unto Hagar
<01904>_,
and she conceived
<02029> (8799)_:
and when she saw
<07200> (8799)
that she had conceived
<02029> (8804)_,
her mistress
<01404>
was despised
<07043> (8799)
in her eyes
<05869>_.
And Sarai
<08297>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Abram
<087>_,
My wrong
<02555>
[be] upon thee: I have given
<05414> (8804)
my maid
<08198>
into thy bosom
<02436>_;
and when she saw
<07200> (8799)
that she had conceived
<02029> (8804)_,
I was despised
<07043> (8799)
in her eyes
<05869>_:
the LORD
<03068>
judge
<08199> (8799)
between me and thee.
But Abram
<087>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Sarai
<08297>_,
Behold, thy maid
<08198>
[is] in thy hand
<03027>_;
do
<06213> (8798)
to her as it pleaseth thee
<02896> <05869>_.
And when Sarai
<08297>
dealt hardly with
<06031> (8762)
her, she fled
<01272> (8799)
from her face
<06440>_.
{as...: Heb. that which is good in thine eyes} {dealt...: Heb. afflicted her}
And the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
found her
<04672> (8799)
by a fountain
<05869>
of water
<04325>
in the wilderness
<04057>_,
by the fountain
<05869>
in the way
<01870>
to Shur
<07793>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Hagar
<01904>_,
Sarai's
<08297>
maid
<08198>_,
whence
<0335>
camest thou
<0935> (8804)_?
and whither wilt thou go
<03212> (8799)_?
And she said
<0559> (8799)_,
I flee
<01272> (8802)
from the face
<06440>
of my mistress
<01404>
Sarai
<08297>_.
And the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, Return
<07725> (8798)
to thy mistress
<01404>_,
and submit
<06031> (8690)
thyself under her hands
<03027>_.
And the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, I will multiply
<07235> (8686)
thy seed
<02233>
exceedingly
<07235> (8687)_,
that it shall not be numbered
<05608> (8735)
for multitude
<07230>_.
And the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, Behold
<02009>_,
thou [art] with child
<02030>_,
and shalt bear
<03205> (8802)
a son
<01121>_,
and shalt call
<07121> (8804)
his name
<08034>
Ishmael
<03458>_;
because the LORD
<03068>
hath heard
<08085> (8804)
thy affliction
<06040>_.
{Ishmael: that is, God shall hear}
And he will be a wild
<06501>
man
<0120>_;
his hand
<03027>
[will be] against every man, and every man's hand
<03027>
against him; and he shall dwell
<07931> (8799)
in the presence
<06440>
of all his brethren
<0251>_.
And she called
<07121> (8799)
the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
that spake
<01696> (8802)
unto her, Thou God
<0410>
seest me
<07210>_:
for she said
<0559> (8804)_,
Have I also here
<01988>
looked
<07200> (8804)
after him
<0310>
that seeth me
<07210>_?
Wherefore the well
<0875>
was called
<07121> (8804)
Beerlahairoi
<0883> <02416>_;
behold, [it is] between Kadesh
<06946>
and Bered
<01260>_.
{Beerlahairoi: that is, The well of him that liveth and seeth me}
And Hagar
<01904>
bare
<03205> (8799)
Abram
<087>
a son
<01121>_:
and Abram
<087>
called
<07121> (8799)
his son's
<01121>
name
<08034>_,
which Hagar
<01904>
bare
<03205> (8804)_,
Ishmael
<03458>_.
And Abram
<087>
[was] fourscore
<08084> <08141>
and six
<08337>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>_,
when Hagar
<01904>
bare
<03205> (8800)
Ishmael
<03458>
to Abram
<087>_.
