Genesis 16:13-16

13Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, “1You are 2a God who sees me”; for she said, “3Have I even seen Him here and lived after 4He saw me?” 14Therefore the well was called 5Beer-lahai-roi; behold, it is between 6Kadesh and Bered.

15So Hagar bore a son to Abram; and Abram named his son, to whom Hagar gave birth, Ishmael. 16Abram was 7eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to 8him.
