11 And the angel of the Lord said to her,

“Behold, you are pregnant
    and shall bear a son.
You shall call his name Ishmael,[a]
    (A)because the Lord has listened to your affliction.
12 He shall be (B)a wild donkey of a man,
    his hand against everyone
    and everyone's hand against him,
and he shall dwell (C)over against all his kinsmen.”
