01:021:004 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as
God had commanded him.
01:021:005 And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac was
born unto him.
01:021:006 And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that
hear will laugh with me.
01:021:007 And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah
should have given children suck? for I have born him a son in
his old age.
01:021:008 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great
feast the same day that Isaac was weaned.
01:021:009 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had
born unto Abraham, mocking.
01:021:010 Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and
her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with
my son, even with Isaac.
01:021:011 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of
his son.
01:021:012 And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight
because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that
Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in
Isaac shall thy seed be called.
01:021:013 And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation,
because he is thy seed.
01:021:014 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and
a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her
shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed,
and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
01:021:015 And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child
under one of the shrubs.
01:021:016 And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way
off, as it were a bow shot: for she said, Let me not see the
death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lift up
her voice, and wept.
01:021:017 And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God
called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth
thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad
where he is.
01:021:018 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand; for I will
make him a great nation.
01:021:019 And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she
went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad
drink.
01:021:020 And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the
wilderness, and became an archer.
01:021:021 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took
him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
01:021:022 And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phichol
the chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, God
