New King James Version
Genesis 21:1-13
1And the Lord visited Sarah as He had said, and the Lord did for Sarah as He had spoken.
2For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
3And Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him—whom Sarah bore to him—Isaac.
4Then Abraham circumcised his son Isaac when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
5Now Abraham was one hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.
6And Sarah said, “God has made me laugh, and all who hear will laugh with me.”
7She also said, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age.”
8So the child grew and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the same day that Isaac was weaned.
9And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, scoffing.
10Therefore she said to Abraham, “Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, namely with Isaac.”
11And the matter was very displeasing in Abraham’s sight because of his son.
12But God said to Abraham, “Do not let it be displeasing in your sight because of the lad or because of your bondwoman. Whatever Sarah has said to you, listen to her voice; for in Isaac your seed shall be called.
13Yet I will also make a nation of the son of the bondwoman, because he is your seed.”
