6 But Abram said to Sarai, “You are Hagar’s mistress. Do anything you want to her.” Then Sarai was hard on Hagar, and Hagar ran away.
7 The angel of the Lord found Hagar beside a spring of water in the desert, by the road to Shur.
8 The angel said, “Hagar, Sarai’s slave girl, where have you come from? Where are you going?”Hagar answered, “I am running away from my mistress Sarai.”
9 The angel of the Lord said to her, “Go home to your mistress and obey her.”
10 The angel also said, “I will give you so many descendants they cannot be counted.”
11 The angel added,“You are now pregnant,and you will have a son.You will name him Ishmael,because the Lord has heard your cries.
12 Ishmael will be like a wild donkey.He will be against everyone,and everyone will be against him.He will attack all his brothers.”
