Genesis 16:11-16
New King James Version
11 And the Angel of the Lord said to her:
“Behold, you are with child,
(A)And you shall bear a son.
You shall call his name [a]Ishmael,
Because the Lord has heard your affliction.
12 (B)He shall be a wild man;
His hand shall be against every man,
And every man’s hand against him.
(C)And he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.”
13 Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, You-Are-[b]the-God-Who-Sees; for she said, “Have I also here [c]seen Him (D)who sees me?” 14 Therefore the well was called (E)Beer Lahai Roi;[d] observe, it is (F)between Kadesh and Bered.
15 So (G)Hagar bore Abram a son; and Abram named his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael. 16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
