Genesis 16

ECB(i) 1
SARAY AND HAGAR
Now Saray the woman of Abram births not to him; and she has a maid, a Misrayim, her name, Hagar: 2 and Saray says to Abram, Behold, I beseech, Yah Veh restrains me from birthing: I beseech you, go in to my maid; perhaps I be built by her. And Abram hearkens to the voice of Saray: 3 and Saray the woman of Abram takes her maid, Hagar the Misrayim, at the end of ten years of Abram settling in the land of Kenaan and gives her to her man Abram to be his woman. 4 And he goes in to Hagar and she conceives: and when she sees that she conceives, she abases her lady in her eyes. 5 And Saray says to Abram, My violence is on you: I - I give my maid into your bosom; and she sees that she conceives, and is abased in her eyes: Yah Veh judge between me and you. 6 And Abram says to Saray, Behold, your maid is in your hand; work to her as is good in your eyes. - and Saray humbles her and she flees from her face. 7 And the angel of Yah Veh finds her by a fountain of water in the wilderness - by the fountain in the way to Shur: 8 and he says, Hagar, maid of Saray, whence come you? And where go you? And she says, I flee from the face of my lady Saray. 9 And the angel of Yah Veh says to her, Return to your lady and humble yourself under her hands. 10 And the angel of Yah Veh says to her, In abounding, I abound your seed, that it not be scribed for abundance. 11 And the angel of Yah Veh says to her, Behold, you conceive and birth a son; and call his name Yishma El; because Yah Veh hears your humiliation: 12 and he is a human runner with the hand of every man against him; and he tabernacles at the face of all his brethren. 13 And she calls the name of Yah Veh who words to her, El Roi/El Sees: for she says, Even here see I him who sees me? 14 Therefore the well is called Beer Lachay Roi; behold - between Qadesh and Bered. 15 And Hagar births Abram a son: and Abram calls the name of his son, whom Hagar births, Yishma El: 16 and Abram is a son of eighty-six years, when Hagar births Yishma El to Abram.
