Genesis 16:11-13
Lexham English Bible
11 And the angel of Yahweh said to her:
“Behold, you are pregnant
and shall have a son.
And you shall call his name Ishmael,
for Yahweh has listened to your suffering.
12 And he shall be a wild donkey of a man,
his hand will be against everyone,
and the hand of everyone will be against him,
and he will live in hostility with all his brothers.”[a]
13 So[b] she called the name of Yahweh who spoke to her, “You are El-Roi,”[c] for she said, “Here I have seen after he who sees me.”
