Genesis 16:10-16 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

10. And the Messenger of יהוה said to her, “I am going to increase your seed greatly, too numerous to be counted.”

11. And the Messenger of יהוה said to her, “See, you are conceiving and bearing a son, and shall call his name Yishma‛ĕl, because יהוה has heard your affliction.

12. “And he is to be a wild man, his hand against every one and every one’s hand against him, and dwell over against all his brothers.”

13. And she called the Name of יהוה who spoke to her, “You are the Ěl who sees,” for she said, “Even here have I seen after Him who sees me?”

14. That is why the well was called Be’ĕr Laḥai Ro’i, see, it is between Qaḏĕsh and Bereḏ.

15. And Hag̅ar bore Aḇram a son, and Aḇram called the name of his son, whom Hag̅ar bore, Yishma‛ĕl.

16. And Aḇram was eighty-six years old when Hag̅ar bore Yishma‛ĕl to Aḇram.
