Hagar und Ismael
16 Und Sarai, Abrams Frau, gebar ihm keine Kinder; aber sie hatte eine ägyptische Magd, die hieß Hagar.
2 Und Sarai sprach zu Abram: Sieh doch, der Herr hat mich verschlossen, dass ich keine Kinder gebären kann. Geh doch ein zu meiner Magd; vielleicht werde ich durch sie Nachkommen empfangen![a] Und Abram hörte auf die Stimme Sarais.
3 Da nahm Sarai, Abrams Frau, ihre ägyptische Magd Hagar, nachdem Abram zehn Jahre lang im Land Kanaan gewohnt hatte, und gab sie Abram, ihrem Mann, zur Frau.
4 Und er ging ein zu Hagar, und sie wurde schwanger. Als sie nun sah, dass sie schwanger war, wurde ihre Herrin verächtlich in ihren Augen.
5 Da sprach Sarai zu Abram: Das Unrecht, das mir zugefügt wird, treffe dich! Ich habe dir meine Magd in den Schoß gegeben. Da sie nun aber sieht, dass sie schwanger ist, bin ich verächtlich in ihren Augen. Der Herr sei Richter zwischen mir und dir!
6 Abram aber sprach zu Sarai: Siehe, deine Magd ist in deiner Hand; tue mit ihr, was gut ist in deinen Augen! Da nun Sarai sie demütigte, floh sie von ihr.
7 Aber der Engel des Herrn[b] fand sie bei einem Wasserbrunnen in der Wüste, beim Brunnen auf dem Weg nach Schur.
8 Er sprach zu ihr: Hagar, du Magd der Sarai, wo kommst du her, und wo willst du hin? Sie sprach: Ich bin von meiner Herrin Sarai geflohen!
9 Und der Engel des Herrn sprach zu ihr: Kehre wieder zurück zu deiner Herrin und demütige dich unter ihre Hand!
10 Und der Engel des Herrn sprach zu ihr: Siehe, ich will deinen Samen so mehren, dass er vor großer Menge unzählbar sein soll.
11 Weiter sprach der Engel des Herrn zu ihr: Siehe, du bist schwanger und wirst einen Sohn gebären, dem sollst du den Namen Ismael[c] geben, weil der Herr dein Jammern erhört hat.
12 Er wird ein wilder Mensch sein, seine Hand gegen jedermann und jedermanns Hand gegen ihn; und er wird allen seinen Brüdern trotzig gegenüberstehen.[d]
13 Und sie nannte den Namen des Herrn, der mit ihr redete: Du bist »der Gott, der [mich] sieht«[e]!, indem sie sprach: Habe ich hier nicht dem nachgesehen, der mich sieht?
14 Darum nannte sie den Brunnen einen »Brunnen des Lebendigen, der mich sieht«. Siehe, er ist zwischen Kadesch und Bared.
15 Und Hagar gebar Abram einen Sohn; und Abram gab seinem Sohn, den ihm Hagar geboren hatte, den Namen Ismael.
16 Und Abram war 86 Jahre alt, als Hagar ihm den Ismael gebar.

Authorized (King James) Version
16 Now Sarai Abram’s wife bare him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar. 2 And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now, the Lord hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai. 3 And Sarai Abram’s wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife. 4 And he went in unto Hagar, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes. 5 And Sarai said unto Abram, My wrong be upon thee: I have given my maid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: the Lord judge between me and thee. 6 But Abram said unto Sarai, Behold, thy maid is in thy hand; do to her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.
7 And the angel of the Lord found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur. 8 And he said, Hagar, Sarai’s maid, whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai. 9 And the angel of the Lord said unto her, Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands. 10 And the angel of the Lord said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude. 11 And the angel of the Lord said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the Lord hath heard thy affliction. 12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren. 13 And she called the name of the Lord that spake unto her, Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that seeth me? 14 Wherefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered. 15 And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called his son’s name, which Hagar bare, Ishmael. 16 And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram.

Hagar and Ishmael
16 Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, (A)had borne him no children. And she had (B)an Egyptian maidservant whose name was (C)Hagar. 2 (D)So Sarai said to Abram, “See now, the Lord (E)has restrained me from bearing children. Please, (F)go in to my maid; perhaps I shall [a]obtain children by her.” And Abram (G)heeded the voice of Sarai. 3 Then Sarai, Abram’s wife, took Hagar her maid, the Egyptian, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife, after Abram (H)had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan. 4 So he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress became (I)despised in her [b]eyes.
5 Then Sarai said to Abram, [c]“My wrong be upon you! I gave my maid into your embrace; and when she saw that she had conceived, I became despised in her eyes. (J)The Lord judge between you and me.”
6 (K)So Abram said to Sarai, “Indeed your maid is in your hand; do to her as you please.” And when Sarai dealt harshly with her, (L)she fled from her presence.
7 Now the (M)Angel of the Lord found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, (N)by the spring on the way to (O)Shur. 8 And He said, “Hagar, Sarai’s maid, where have you come from, and where are you going?”
She said, “I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarai.”
9 The Angel of the Lord said to her, “Return to your mistress, and (P)submit yourself under her hand.” 10 Then the Angel of the Lord said to her, (Q)“I will multiply your descendants exceedingly, so that they shall not be counted for multitude.” 11 And the Angel of the Lord said to her:
“Behold, you are with child,
(R)And you shall bear a son.
You shall call his name [d]Ishmael,
Because the Lord has heard your affliction.
12 (S)He shall be a wild man;
His hand shall be against every man,
And every man’s hand against him.
(T)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-[e]the-God-Who-Sees; for she said, “Have I also here [f]seen Him (U)who sees me?” 14 Therefore the well was called (V)Beer Lahai Roi;[g] observe, it is (W)between Kadesh and Bered.
15 So (X)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.

Hagar and Ishmael
16 Now Sarai,(A) Abram’s wife, had borne him no children.(B) But she had an Egyptian slave(C) named Hagar;(D) 2 so she said to Abram, “The Lord has kept me from having children.(E) Go, sleep with my slave; perhaps I can build a family through her.”(F)
Abram agreed to what Sarai said. 3 So after Abram had been living in Canaan(G) ten years,(H) Sarai his wife took her Egyptian slave Hagar and gave her to her husband to be his wife. 4 He slept with Hagar,(I) and she conceived.
When she knew she was pregnant, she began to despise her mistress.(J) 5 Then Sarai said to Abram, “You are responsible for the wrong I am suffering. I put my slave in your arms, and now that she knows she is pregnant, she despises me. May the Lord judge between you and me.”(K)
6 “Your slave is in your hands,(L)” Abram said. “Do with her whatever you think best.” Then Sarai mistreated(M) Hagar; so she fled from her.
7 The angel of the Lord(N) found Hagar near a spring(O) in the desert; it was the spring that is beside the road to Shur.(P) 8 And he said, “Hagar,(Q) slave of Sarai, where have you come from, and where are you going?”(R)
“I’m running away from my mistress Sarai,” she answered.
9 Then the angel of the Lord told her, “Go back to your mistress and submit to her.” 10 The angel added, “I will increase your descendants so much that they will be too numerous to count.”(S)
11 The angel of the Lord(T) also said to her:
“You are now pregnant
and you will give birth to a son.(U)
You shall name him(V) Ishmael,[a](W)
for the Lord has heard of your misery.(X)
12 He will be a wild donkey(Y) of a man;
his hand will be against everyone
and everyone’s hand against him,
and he will live in hostility
toward[b] all his brothers.(Z)”
13 She gave this name to the Lord who spoke to her: “You are the God who sees me,(AA)” for she said, “I have now seen[c] the One who sees me.”(AB) 14 That is why the well(AC) was called Beer Lahai Roi[d];(AD) it is still there, between Kadesh(AE) and Bered.
15 So Hagar(AF) bore Abram a son,(AG) and Abram gave the name Ishmael(AH) to the son she had borne. 16 Abram was eighty-six years old(AI) when Hagar bore him Ishmael.
