1	Now Sarai Abram's wife bare# him no children# : and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.
			2	And Sarai said# unto Abram, Behold now, the LORD hath restrained me# from bearing# : I pray thee, go in# unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children# by her. And Abram hearkened# to the voice of Sarai. [obtain...: Heb. be built by her]
			3	And Sarai Abram's wife took# Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt# ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave# her to her husband Abram to be his wife.
			4	And he went in# unto Hagar, and she conceived# : and when she saw# that she had conceived# , her mistress was despised# in her eyes.
			5	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.
			6	But Abram said# unto Sarai, Behold, thy maid is in thy hand; do# to her as it pleaseth thee# . And when Sarai dealt hardly with# her, she fled# from her face. [as...: Heb. that which is good in thine eyes] [dealt...: Heb. afflicted her]
			7	And the angel of the LORD found her# by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.
			8	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.
			9	And the angel of the LORD said# unto her, Return# to thy mistress, and submit# thyself under her hands.
			10	And the angel of the LORD said# unto her, I will multiply# thy seed exceedingly# , that it shall not be numbered# for multitude.
			11	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. [Ishmael: that is, God shall hear]
			12	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.
			13	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?
			14	Wherefore the well was called# Beerlahairoi# ; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered. [Beerlahairoi: that is, The well of him that liveth and seeth me]
			15	And Hagar bare# Abram a son: and Abram called# his son's name, which Hagar bare# , Ishmael.
			16	And Abram was fourscore# and six years old, when Hagar bare# Ishmael to Abram.
