And the LORD
visited
Sarah
as he had said,
and the LORD
did
unto Sarah
as he had spoken.
For Sarah
conceived,
and bare
Abraham
a son
in his old age,
at the set time
of which God
had spoken
to him.
And Abraham
called
the name
of his son
that was born
unto him, whom Sarah
bare
to him, Isaac.
And Abraham
circumcised
his son
Isaac
being eight
days
old,
as God
had commanded
him.
And Abraham
was an hundred
years
old,
when his son
Isaac
was born
unto him.
And Sarah
said,
God
hath made
me to laugh,
so that all that hear
will laugh
with me.
And she said,
Who would have said
unto Abraham,
that Sarah
should have given children
suck?
for I have born
him a son
in his old age.
And the child
grew,
and was weaned:
and Abraham
made
a great
feast
the same day
that Isaac
was weaned.
And Sarah
saw
the son
of Hagar
the Egyptian,
which she had born
unto Abraham,
mocking.
Wherefore she said
unto Abraham,
Cast out
this bondwoman
and her son:
for the son
of this bondwoman
shall not be heir
with my son,
even with Isaac.
say
And the thing
was very
grievous
in Abraham's
sight
because
of his son.
And God
said
unto Abraham,
Let it not be grievous
in thy sight
because of the lad,
and because of thy bondwoman;
in all that Sarah
hath said
unto thee, hearken
unto her voice;
for in Isaac
shall thy seed
be called.
say
say
And also of the son
of the bondwoman
will I make
a nation,
because he is thy seed.
And Abraham
rose up early
in the morning,
and took
bread,
and a bottle
of water,
and gave
it unto Hagar,
putting
it on her shoulder,
and the child,
and sent her away:
and she departed,
and wandered
in the wilderness
of Beersheba.
And the water
was spent
in
the bottle,
and she cast
the child
under one
of the shrubs.
And she went,
and sat her down
over against
him a good way off,
as it were a bowshot:
for she said,
Let me not see
the death
of the child.
And she sat
over against him, and lift up
her voice,
and wept.
say
And God
heard
the voice
of the lad;
and the angel
of God
called
to Hagar
out of heaven,
and said
unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar?
fear
not; for God
hath heard
the voice
of the lad
where he is.
say
Arise,
lift up
the lad,
and hold
him in thine hand;
for I will make
him a great
nation.
And God
opened
her eyes,
and she saw
a well
of water;
and she went,
and filled
the bottle
with water,
and gave
the lad
drink.
fill
And God
was with the lad;
and he grew,
and dwelt
in the wilderness,
and became an archer.
And he dwelt
in the wilderness
of Paran:
and his mother
took
him a wife
out of the land
of Egypt.
And it came to pass at that time,
that Abimelech
and Phichol
the chief captain
of his host
spake
unto Abraham,
saying,
God
is with thee in all that thou doest:

Now therefore swear
unto me here
by God
that thou wilt not deal falsely
with me, nor with my son,
nor with my son's son:
but according to the kindness
that I have done
unto thee, thou shalt do
unto me, and to the land
wherein thou hast sojourned.
And Abraham
said,
I will swear.
And Abraham
reproved
Abimelech
because
of a well
of water,
which Abimelech's
servants
had violently taken away.
And Abimelech
said,
I wot
not who hath done
this thing:
neither
didst thou tell
me, neither
yet heard
I of it, but
to day.
And Abraham
took
sheep
and oxen,
and gave
them unto Abimelech;
and both of them
made
a covenant.
And Abraham
set
seven
ewe lambs
of the flock
by themselves.
And Abimelech
said
unto Abraham,
What
mean these seven
ewe lambs
which thou hast set
by themselves?
And he said,
For these seven
ewe lambs
shalt thou take
of my hand,
that
they may be a witness
unto me, that I have digged
this well.
Wherefore he called
that place
Beersheba;
because there they sware
both of them.
Thus they made
a covenant
at Beersheba:
then Abimelech
rose up,
and Phichol
the chief captain
of his host,
and they returned
into the land
of the Philistines.

And Abraham planted

in Beersheba,

there on the name

the everlasting

And Abraham
sojourned

many
days.
