Amplified Bible
Genesis 16:7-11
7But the Angel of the Lord found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, on the road to [Egypt by way of] Shur.
8And He said, “Hagar, Sarai’s maid, where did you come from and where are you going?” And she said, “I am running away from my mistress Sarai.”
9The Angel of the Lord said to her, “Go back to your mistress, and submit humbly to her authority.”
10Then the Angel of the Lord said to her, “I will greatly multiply your descendants so that they will be too many to count.”
11The Angel of the Lord continued, “Behold, you are with child, And you will bear a son; And you shall name him Ishmael (God hears), Because the Lord has heard and paid attention to your persecution (suffering).
