4 So he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress became adespised in her eyes.
5 Then Sarai said to Abram, “My wrong be upon you! I gave my maid into your embrace; and when she saw that she had conceived, I became despised in her eyes. aThe Lord judge between you and me.”
6 aSo Abram said to Sarai, “Indeed your maid is in your hand; do to her as you please.” And when Sarai dealt harshly with her, bshe fled from her presence.
7 Now the aAngel of the Lord found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, bby the spring on the way to cShur.
8 And He said, “Hagar, Sarai’s maid, where have you come from, and where are you going?” She said, “I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarai.”
9 The Angel of the Lord said to her, “Return to your mistress, and asubmit yourself under her hand.”
10 Then the Angel of the Lord said to her, a“I will multiply your descendants exceedingly, so that they shall not be counted for multitude.”
