1
Sarai was Abram's wife, but she did not have any children. She had an Egyptian slave named Hagar.
2
Sarai told Abram, "The Lord has not allowed me to have children, so sleep with my slave. Maybe she can have a son, and I will accept him as my own." Abram did what Sarai said.
3
So after living ten years in the land of Canaan, Sarai gave her Egyptian slave to Abram as a second wife.
4
Abram slept with Hagar, and she became pregnant. When Hagar realized this, she became very proud and began to feel that she was better than Sarai her owner.
5
Then Sarai said to Abram, "My slave girl now hates me, and I blame you for this. I gave her to you, and she became pregnant. Then she began to feel that she is better than I am. I want the Lord to judge which of us is right."
6
But Abram said to Sarai, "She is your slave. You can do anything you want to her." So Sarai was cruel to Hagar, and Hagar ran away.
7
The Angel of the Lord found Hagar near a spring of water in the desert. The spring was by the road to Shur.
8
The angel said, "Hagar, Sarai's slave girl, why are you here? Where are you going?" Hagar said, "I am running away from Sarai."
9
The Angel of the Lord said to her, "Sarai is your owner. Go home to her and obey her."
10
The Angel of the Lord also said, "From you will come many people. There will be so many people that they cannot be counted."
11
Then the Angel of the Lord said, "Hagar, you are now pregnant, and you will have a son. You will name him Ishmael, because the Lord has heard that you were treated badly.
12
Ishmael will be wild and free like a wild donkey. He will be against everyone, and everyone will be against him. He will move from place to place and camp near his brothers."
13
The Lord talked to Hagar. She began to use a new name for God. She said to him, "You are 'God Who Sees Me.'" She said this because she thought, "I see that even in this place God sees me and cares for me!"
14
So the well there was called Beer Lahai Roi. It is between Kadesh and Bered.
15
Hagar gave birth to Abram's son, and Abram named the son Ishmael.
16
Abram was 86 years old when Ishmael was born from Hagar.
