Genesis 16:1Sarai said to Abram, “See now, Yahweh has restrained me from bearing. Please go in to my servant. It may be that I will obtain children by her.” Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.
Genesis 16:2Sarai, Abram’s wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband to be his wife.Genesis 16:3He went in to Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
Genesis 16:4Sarai said to Abram, “This wrong is your fault. I gave my servant into your bosom, and when she saw that she had conceived, she despised me. May Yahweh judge between me and you.”Genesis 16:5But Abram said to Sarai, “Behold, your maid is in your hand. Do to her whatever is good in your eyes.” Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her face.Genesis 16:6Yahweh’s angel found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain on the way to Shur.Genesis 16:7He said, “Hagar, Sarai’s servant, where did you come from? Where are you going?” She said, “I am fleeing from the face of my mistress Sarai.”Genesis 16:8Yahweh’s angel said to her, “Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands.”Genesis 16:9Yahweh’s angel said to her, “I will greatly multiply your offspring, that they will not be counted for multitude.”Genesis 16:10Yahweh’s angel said to her, “Behold, you are with child, and will bear a son. You shall call his name Ishmael, because Yahweh has heard your affliction.Genesis 16:11He will be like a wild donkey among men. His hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. He will live opposed to all of his brothers.”Genesis 16:12She called the name of Yahweh who spoke to her, “You are a God who sees,” for she said, “Have I even stayed alive after seeing him?”Genesis 16:13Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.Genesis 16:14Hagar bore a son for Abram. Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.Genesis 16:15Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.Genesis 16:16Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
Genesis 21:9Therefore she said to Abraham, “Cast out this servant and her son! For the son of this servant will not be heir with my son, Isaac.”Genesis 21:10The thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight on account of his son.Genesis 21:11God said to Abraham, “Don’t let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your servant. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For your offspring will be named through Isaac.Genesis 21:12I will also make a nation of the son of the servant, because he is your child.”Genesis 21:13Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a container of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.Genesis 21:14The water in the container was spent, and she put the child under one of the shrubs.Genesis 21:15She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, “Don’t let me see the death of the child.” She sat opposite him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.Genesis 21:16God heard the voice of the boy. The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, “What troubles you, Hagar? Don’t be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.Genesis 21:17Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him with your hand. For I will make him a great nation.”Genesis 21:18God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the container with water, and gave the boy a drink.Genesis 21:19God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and as he grew up, became an archer.Genesis 21:20He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother got a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.Genesis 21:21At that time, Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, “God is with you in all that you do.

Galatians 4:21For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the servant, and one by the free woman.Galatians 4:22However, the son by the servant was born according to the flesh, but the son by the free woman was born through promise.Galatians 4:23These things contain an allegory, for these are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children to bondage, which is Hagar.Galatians 4:24For this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to the Jerusalem that exists now, for she is in bondage with her children.Galatians 4:25But the Jerusalem that is above is free, which is the mother of us all.Galatians 4:26For it is written, “Rejoice, you barren who don’t bear. Break out and shout, you who don’t travail. For the desolate have more children than her who has a husband.”Galatians 4:27Now we, brothers, as Isaac was, are children of promise.Galatians 4:28But as then, he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now.Galatians 4:29However what does the Scripture say? “Throw out the servant and her son, for the son of the servant will not inherit with the son of the free woman.”Galatians 4:30So then, brothers, we are not children of a servant, but of the free woman.Galatians 4:31So then, brothers, we are not children of a servant, but of the free woman.
