Genesis - ch 21 v 1 - 20
- And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken.
- For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
- And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac.
- And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him.
- And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born unto him.
- And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me.
- And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? for I have born him a son in his old age.
- And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned.
- And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking.
- Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.
- And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.
- And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
- And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.
- And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
- And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
- And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lift up her voice, and wept.
- And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.
- Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand; for I will make him a great nation.
- And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.
- And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.
