| 1. | And Jehovah visited Sarah as he had said, and Jehovah did to Sarah as he had spoken. |
| 2. | And Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the appointed time of which God had spoken to him. |
| 3. | And Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac. |
| 4. | And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac, being eight days old, as God had commanded him. |
| 5. | And Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him. |
| 6. | And Sarah said, God has made me laugh: all that hear will laugh with me. |
| 7. | And she said, Who would have said to Abraham, Sarah will suckle children? For I have borne him a son in his old age. |
| 8. | And the child grew, and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned. |
| 9. | And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking. |
| 10. | And she said to Abraham, Cast out this handmaid and her son; for the son of this handmaid shall not inherit with my son -- with Isaac. |
| 11. | And the thing was very grievous in Abraham`s sight because of his son. |
| 12. | And God said to Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad and because of thy handmaid: in all that Sarah hath said to thee hearken to her voice, for in Isaac shall a seed be called to thee. |
| 13. | But also the son of the handmaid will I make a nation, because he is thy seed. |
| 14. | And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a flask of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder -- and the child, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered about in the wilderness of Beer-sheba. |
| 15. | And the water was exhausted from the flask; and she cast the child under one of the shrubs, |
| 16. | and she went and sat down over against him, a bow-shot off; for she said, Let me not behold the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lifted up her voice and wept. |
| 17. | And God heard the voice of the lad. And the Angel of God called to Hagar from the heavens, and said to her, What aileth thee, Hagar? Fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad there, where he is. |
| 18. | Arise, take the lad, and hold him in thy hand; for I will make of him a great nation. |
| 19. | And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went and filled the flask with water, and gave the lad drink. |
| 20. | And God was with the lad, and he grew; and he dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer. |
| 21. | And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran. And his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt. |
| 22. | And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech, and Phichol the captain of his host, spoke to Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou doest. |
| 23. | And now swear to me here by God that thou wilt not deal deceitfully with me, nor with my son, nor with my grandson. According to the kindness that I have done to thee, thou shalt do to me, and to the land in which thou sojournest. |
| 24. | And Abraham said, I will swear. |
| 25. | And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water that Abimelech`s servants had violently taken away. |
| 26. | And Abimelech said, I do not know who has done this, neither hast thou told me of it, neither have I heard of it but to-day. |
| 27. | And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant. |
| 28. | And Abraham set seven ewe-lambs of the flock by themselves. |
| 29. | And Abimelech said to Abraham, What mean these seven ewe-lambs, these which thou hast set by themselves? |
| 30. | And he said, That thou take the seven ewe-lambs of my hand, that they may be a witness to me that I have dug this well. |
| 31. | Therefore he called that place Beer-sheba, because there they had sworn, both of them. |
| 32. | And they made a covenant at Beer-sheba. And Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the captain of his host, and returned into the land of the Philistines. |
| 33. | And Abraham planted a tamarisk in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of Jehovah, the Eternal łGod. |
| 34. | And Abraham sojourned in the Philistines` land many days. |
