17 And God heard the voice of the lad, and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven and said unto her, What ails thee, Hagar? Fear not, for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is.
18 Arise, lift up the lad and hold him in thy hand, for I will make him a great nation.
19 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.
20 And God was with the lad, and he grew and dwelt in the wilderness and became an archer.
21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
22 And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech and Phichol, the prince of his host, spoke unto Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou doest.
23 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 mercy that I have done unto thee, thou shalt do unto me and to the land in which thou hast sojourned.
