01:016:005 And Sarai said unto Abram, My wrong be upon thee: I have
given my maid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived,
I was despised in her eyes: the LORD judge between me and thee.
01:016:006 But Abram said unto Sarai, Behold, thy maid is in thine
hand; do to her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai dealt hardly with
her, she fled from her face.
01:016:007 And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of water
in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.
01:016:008 And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou? and
whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress
Sarai.
01:016:009 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Return to thy
mistress, and submit thyself under her hands.
01:016:010 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy
seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.
01:016:011 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art
with child and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael;
because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.
01:016:012 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every
man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the
presence of all his brethren.
01:016:013 And she called the name of the LORD that spake unto her,
Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that
seeth me?
01:016:014 Wherefore the well was called Beerlahairoi; behold, it is
between Kadesh and Bered.
01:016:015 And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called his son's name,
which Hagar bare, Ishmael.
01:016:016 And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare
Ishmael to Abram.
01:017:001 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD
appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk
before me, and be thou perfect.
01:017:002 And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will
multiply thee exceedingly.
01:017:003 And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,
01:017:004 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt
be a father of many nations.
01:017:005 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy
name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
01:017:006 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make
nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
01:017:007 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy
seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be
a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
01:017:008 And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the
land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an
everlasting possession; and I will be their God.
01:017:009 And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant
therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
