4 He had sexual relations with Hagar, and she became pregnant. Once Hagar realized she was pregnant, she despised Sarai.
5 Then Sarai said to Abram, “You have brought this wrong on me! I allowed my servant to have sexual relations with you, but when she realized that she was pregnant, she despised me. May the Lord judge between you and me!”
6 Abram said to Sarai, “Since your servant is under your authority, do to her whatever you think best.” Then Sarai treated Hagar harshly, so she ran away from Sarai.
7 The Lord’s angel found Hagar near a spring of water in the desert – the spring that is along the road to Shur.
8 He said, “Hagar, servant of Sarai, where have you come from, and where are you going?” She replied, “I’m running away from my mistress, Sarai.”
9 Then the Lord’s angel said to her, “Return to your mistress and submit to her authority.
10 I will greatly multiply your descendants,” the Lord’s angel added, “so that they will be too numerous to count.”
