Genesis 16:7–14

⁷And a messenger of Jehovah findeth her by the fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur, ⁸and he saith, ‘Hagar, Sarai’s handmaid, whence hast thou come, and whither dost thou go?’ and she saith, ‘From the presence of Sarai, my mistress, I am fleeing.’ ⁹And the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, ‘Turn back unto thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hands;’

¹⁰And the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, ‘Multiplying I multiply thy seed, and it is not numbered from multitude;’ ¹¹and the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, ‘Behold thou art conceiving, and bearing a son, and hast called his name Ishmael, for Jehovah hath hearkened unto thine affliction; ¹²and he is a wild-ass man, his hand against every one, and every one’s hand against him—and before the face of all his brethren he dwelleth.’ ¹³And she calleth the name of Jehovah who is speaking unto her, ‘Thou art, O God, my beholder;’ for she said, ‘Even here have I looked behind my beholder?’ ¹⁴therefore hath one called the well, ‘The well of the Living One, my beholder;’ lo, between Kadesh and Bered.
