Berean Standard Bible
And
Sarai,
Abram's
wife ,
hath
not
borne to
him, and
she hath
an
handmaid,
an Egyptian ,
and
her
name
`is'
Hagar ;
Now
Abram’s
wife Sarai
had
borne him no
children
, but
she had
an Egyptian maidservant
named
Hagar .
and
Sarai saith
unto
Abram, `Lo,
I
pray
thee
, Jehovah
hath
restrained
me from bearing ,
go in,
I
pray
thee,
unto
my handmaid
; perhaps I am
built
up
from
her ;'
and Abram hearkeneth
to the voice of Sarai.
So
Sarai said
to
Abram, “Look
now
, the
LORD
has
prevented
me from bearing children.
Please
go to
my maidservant
; perhaps I can
build
a
family
by
her .”
And Abram listened
to the voice of Sarai.
And
Sarai,
Abram's
wife,
taketh
Hagar
the
Egyptian,
her
handmaid,
at
the
end
of
the
tenth
year
of
Abram's
dwelling
in the
land
of
Canaan, and giveth
her to Abram her
husband,
to him
for
a
wife ,
So
after
he
had
lived
in Canaan for
ten
years
, his
wife
Sarai
took
her
Egyptian
maidservant
Hagar
and gave
her to Abram to be
his
wife .
and he goeth
in
unto
Hagar, and she conceiveth,
and
she
seeth
that she hath
conceived
, and
her mistress is
lightly
esteemed
in
her
eyes
.
And he slept
with
Hagar, and she conceived.
But
when
Hagar
realized
that she was
pregnant
, she
began
to
despise
her mistress.
And
Sarai saith
unto
Abram, `My
violence
`is'
for
thee;
I
--
I have
given
mine
handmaid
into thy
bosom
, and she seeth
that she hath
conceived
, and
I
am
lightly
esteemed
in
her
eyes;
Jehovah
doth
judge between me
and thee
. '
Then
Sarai said
to
Abram, “May
the
wrong
done
to
me
be
upon
you!
I delivered
my
servant
into your
arms
, and ever
since
she saw
that she was
pregnant
, she
has
treated
me
with
contempt.
May
the
LORD
judge between you
and me
. ”
And
Abram
saith
unto
Sarai
, `Lo
, thine
handmaid
`
is '
in thine
hand,
do to
her that
which
is
good
in
thine
eyes;'
and
Sarai afflicted
her,
and
she fleeth
from her presence
.
“Here
, ”
said
Abram
, “your
servant
is in your
hands.
Do whatever
you
want
with
her .”
Then
Sarai treated
Hagar
so
harshly
that
she fled
from her.
And
a
messenger
of Jehovah
findeth
her
by
the fountain
of water in the wilderness,
by
the fountain
in
the way
`
to '
Shur ,
Now
the
angel
of the LORD
found
Hagar
by
a
spring
of water in the desert—
the spring
along
the road
to Shur .
and
he
saith,
`
Hagar, Sarai's
handmaid
, whence
hast
thou
come, and whither
dost
thou
go
? '
and
she
saith,
`
From the
presence
of
Sarai,
my mistress, I
am
fleeing
. '
“
Hagar, servant
of
Sarai
, ”
he
said,
“where
have
you
come from
, and where
are
you
going
? ”
“I
am
running
away
from my mistress Sarai
, ”
she
replied
.
And
the messenger
of Jehovah
saith
to
her, `Turn
back
unto
thy
mistress ,
and humble
thyself
under
her hands;'
So
the angel
of the
LORD
told
her, “Return
to
your
mistress and submit
to
her authority.”
and
the messenger
of
Jehovah
saith
to
her
, `Multiplying
I multiply thy
seed,
and
it
is
not
numbered
from
multitude;'
Then
the angel
added
, “
I will
greatly
multiply your
offspring
so
that
they
will
be
too
numerous
to
count.”
and
the messenger
of Jehovah
saith
to
her,
`
Behold thou
`art'
conceiving
, and bearing
a son ,
and hast
called
his
name Ishmael, for Jehovah
hath
hearkened
unto
thine
affliction ;
The angel
of the
LORD
proceeded:
“
Behold, you
have
conceived
and will
bear
a son .
And you
shall
name him
Ishmael, for the
LORD
has
heard
your
cry
of
affliction .
and
he is
a wild -ass
man, his hand against every
one
, and every
one's
hand against him --
and
before
the
face
of
all his brethren
he
dwelleth
. '
He will
be
a wild donkey
of
a
man, and
his hand will
be
against everyone
, and everyone’s
hand against him ;
he
will
live
in
hostility
toward
all his brothers
. ”
And
she
calleth
the
name of
Jehovah
who is
speaking
unto
her ,
`Thou
`art',
O
God, my
beholder;'
for she said, `Even
here have
I looked
behind
my
beholder?'
So
Hagar
gave
this
name to
the
LORD
who had
spoken
to
her :
“You
are
the
God who
sees
me
, ”
for she said, “
Here I have
seen
the
One
who
sees
me!”
therefore hath
one
called
the well ,
`The
well
of
the
Living
One,
my
beholder;'
lo,
between Kadesh and Bered.
Therefore the well was
called
Beer-lahai-roi.
It
is
located
between Kadesh and Bered.
And Hagar beareth
to
Abram a son ;
and Abram calleth
the name of
his
son ,
whom
Hagar
hath
borne ,
Ishmael;
And Hagar bore
Abram a son ,
and Abram gave
the name Ishmael
to
the
son she
had
borne .
and
Abram `is'
a
son
of
eighty and
six years in
Hagar's
bearing
Ishmael to Abram
.
Abram was
eighty -
six years old
when
Hagar
bore
Ishmael to him
.
