NOW Sarai Avram's woman bore him no children: and she had a handmaid, a Mitsriy, whose name was Ha'ger.
And Sarai said unto El-Avram, Behold now, Yahuah has restrained me from bearing: I pray you, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Avram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.
And Sarai Avram's woman took Ha'ger her maid the Mitsriy, after Avram had dwelt ten years in the land of Kena`an, and gave her to her man Avram to be his woman.
And he went in unto Ha'ger, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
And Sarai said unto El-Avram, My wrong be upon you: I have given my maid into your bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: Yahuah judge between me and you.
But Avram said unto El-Sarai, Behold, your maid is in your hand; do to her as it pleases you. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.
And the angel of Yahuah found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.
And he said, Ha'ger, Sarai's maid, whence came you? and whither will you go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai.
And the angel of Yahuah said unto her, Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands.
And the angel of Yahuah said unto her, I will multiply your seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.
And the angel of Yahuah said unto her, Behold, you are with child, and shall bear a son, and shall call את his name Yishma'el; because Yahuah has heard your affliction.
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.
And she called the name of Yahuah that spoke unto her, El Ro`iy: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that sees me?
Wherefore the well was called Be'er La-Chai Ro'iy; behold, it is between Qadesh and Bered.
And Ha'ger bore Avram a son: and Avram called his son's name, which Ha'ger bore, Yishma'el.
And Avram was fourscore and six years old, when Ha'ger bore Yishma'el to Avram.
