[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50]

GEN 16:1 Now Sarai the wife of Abram, had brought forth no children; having a handmaid, an Egyptian, named Agar,
GEN 16:2 She said to her husband: Behold, the Lord hath restrained me from bearing: go in unto my handmaid, it may be I may have children of her at least. And when he agreed to her request,
GEN 16:3 She took Agar the Egyptian her handmaid, ten years after they first dwelt in the land of Chanaan, and gave her to her husband to wife.
GEN 16:4 And he went in to her. But she, perceiving that she was with child, despised her mistress.
GEN 16:5 And Sarai said to Abram: Thou dost unjustly with me: I gave my handmaid into thy bosom, and she perceiving herself to be with child, despiseth me. The Lord judge between me and thee.
GEN 16:6 And Abram made answer, and said to her: Behold thy handmaid is in thy own hand, use her its it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai afflicted her, she ran away.
GEN 16:7 And the angel of the Lord having found her, by a fountain of water in the wilderness, which is in the way to Sur in the desert,
GEN 16:8 He said to her: Agar, handmaid of Sarai, whence comest thou? and whither goest thou? And she answered: I flee from the face of Sarai, my mistress.
GEN 16:9 And the angel of the Lord said to her: Return to thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hand.
GEN 16:10 And again he said: I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, and it shall not be numbered for multitude.
GEN 16:11 And again: Behold, said he, thou art with child, and thou shalt bring forth a son: and thou shalt call his name Ismael, because the Lord hath heard thy affliction.
GEN 16:12 He shall be a wild man: his hand will be against all men, and all men's hands against him: and he shall pitch his tents over against all his brethren.
GEN 16:13 And she called the name of the Lord that spoke unto her: Thou the God who hast seen me. For she said: Verily here have I seen the hinder parts of him that seeth me.
GEN 16:14 Therefore she called that well, The well of him that liveth and seeth me. The same is between Cades and Bared.
GEN 16:15 And Agar brought forth a son to Abram: who called his name Ismael.
GEN 16:16 Abram was fourscore and six years old when Agar brought him forth Ismael.
