7And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 found herH4672 by a fountainH5869 of waterH4325 in the wildernessH4057, by the fountainH5869 in the wayH1870 to ShurH7793. 8And he saidH559, HagarH1904, Sarai’sH8297 maidH8198, from whereH335 didst thou comeH935? and where wilt thou goH3212? And she saidH559, I fleeH1272 from the faceH6440 of my mistressH1404 SaraiH8297. 9And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 saidH559 to her, ReturnH7725 to thy mistressH1404, and submitH6031 thyself under her handsH3027.
