Genesis 16:4-6
New American Standard Bible
4 Then he had relations with Hagar, and she conceived; and when Hagar became aware that she had conceived, her mistress was insignificant in her sight. 5 So Sarai said to Abram, “(A)May the wrong done to me be upon you! I put my slave woman into your [a]arms, but when she saw that she had conceived, I was insignificant in her [b]sight. (B)May the Lord judge between [c]you and me.” 6 But Abram said to Sarai, “Look, your slave woman is in your [d]power; do to her what is good in your [e]sight.” So Sarai treated her harshly, and (C)she fled from her presence.
