Genesis 16:11–12

11 The angel of the Lord also said to her:

“You are now with child

and you will have a son.

You shall name him Ishmael,a

for the Lord has heard of your misery.

12 He will be a wild donkey of a man;

his hand will be against everyone

and everyone’s hand against him,

and he will live in hostility

towardb all his brothers.”
