Genesis 16:7-14


7 Now athe angel of Yahweh found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, by the spring on the way to bShur.
8 And he said, “Hagar, Sarai’s servant-woman, awhere have you come from and where are you going?” And she said, “I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarai.” 9 Then the angel of Yahweh said to her, “Return to your mistress and 1humble yourself under her hands.” 10 Moreover, the aangel of Yahweh said to her, “bI will greatly multiply your seed so that 1they will be too many to be counted.” 11 And the angel of Yahweh said to her further,
“Behold, you 1are with child,
And you will bear a son;
And you shall call his name 2Ishmael,
Because aYahweh has heard your affliction.

12
And he will be a awild donkey of a man,
His hand will be against everyone,
And everyone’s hand will be against him;
And he will dwell 1bin the face of all his brothers.”
13 Then she called the name of Yahweh who spoke to her, “1You are 2a God who sees”; for she said, “aHave I even 3remained alive here after seeing Him?” 14 Therefore the well was called 1Beer-lahai-roi; behold, it is between aKadesh and Bered.
