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.”
11 And the Angel of the Lord said to her:
“Behold, you are with child,
aAnd you shall bear a son.
You shall call his name1 Ishmael,
Because the Lord has heard your affliction.
“Behold, you are with child,
aAnd you shall bear a son.
You shall call his name1 Ishmael,
Because the Lord has heard your affliction.
12 aHe shall be a wild man;
His hand shall be against every man,
And every man’s hand against him.
bAnd he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.”
His hand shall be against every man,
And every man’s hand against him.
bAnd he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.”
13 Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, You-Are-1the-God-Who-Sees; for she said, “Have I also here2 seen Him awho sees me?”
14 Therefore the well was called aBeer Lahai Roi; observe, it is bbetween Kadesh and Bered.
