Genesis 21:6-21

6And Sarah said, 1God has made me laugh: all that hear will laugh with me.

7And she said, Who would have said to Abraham, Sarah will suckle children? For I have borne [him] a son in his old age.

8And the child grew, and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.

9And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.

10And she said to Abraham, Cast out this handmaid and her son; for the son of this handmaid shall not inherit with my son — with Isaac.

11And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.

12And 2God said to Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad and because of thy handmaid: [in] all that Sarah hath said to thee hearken to her voice, for in Isaac shall a seed be called to thee.

13But also the son of the handmaid will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.

14And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a flask of water, and gave [it] to Hagar, putting [it] on her shoulder — and the child, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered about in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.

15And the water was exhausted from the flask; and she cast the child under one of the shrubs,

16and she went and sat down over against [him], a bow-shot off; for she said, Let me not behold the death of the child. And she sat over against [him], and lifted up her voice and wept.

17And 3God heard the voice of the lad. And the Angel of 4God called to Hagar from the heavens, and said to her, What [aileth] thee, Hagar? Fear not; for 5God hath heard the voice of the lad there, where he is.

18Arise, take the lad, and hold him in thy hand; for I will make of him a great nation.

19And 6God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went and filled the flask with water, and gave the lad drink.

20And 7God was with the lad, and he grew; and he dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.

21And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran. And his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
