Genesis 21:9-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 21
9
Now Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking
Isaac.
10
Therefore she said to Abraham, 'Drive out this slave woman and her son, for the son of this slave woman shall not be an heir with my son Isaac!'
11
The matter distressed Abraham greatly because of his son
Ishmael.
12
But God said to Abraham, 'Do not be distressed because of the boy and your slave woman; whatever Sarah tells you, listen to her, for through Isaac your descendants shall be named.
13
And of the son of the slave woman I will make a nation also, because he is your descendant.'
14
So Abraham got up early in the morning and took bread and a skin of water, and gave
them
to Hagar, putting
them
on her shoulder, and
gave her
the boy, and sent her away. And she departed and wandered about in the wilderness of Beersheba.
15
When the water in the skin was used up, she left the boy under one of the bushes.
16
Then she went and sat down opposite him, about a bowshot away, for she said, 'May I not see the boy die!' And she sat opposite him, and raised her voice and wept.
King James Version
Chapter 21
9
And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking.
10
Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.
11
And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.
12
And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
13
And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.
14
And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
15
And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
16
And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lift up her voice, and wept.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 21
9
But Sarah saw the son mocking—the one Hagar the Egyptian had borne to Abraham.
10
So she said to Abraham, "Drive out this slave with her son, for the son of this slave will not be a coheir with my son Isaac!"
11
This was very distressing to Abraham because of his son.
12
But God said to Abraham, "Do not be distressed about the boy and about your slave. Whatever Sarah says to you, listen to her, because your offspring will be traced through Isaac,
13
and I will also make a nation of the slave’s son because he is your offspring."
14
Early in the morning Abraham got up, took bread and a waterskin, put them on Hagar’s shoulders, and sent her and the boy away. She left and wandered in the Wilderness of Beer-sheba.
15
When the water in the skin was gone, she left the boy under one of the bushes
16
and went and sat at a distance, about a bowshot away, for she said, "I can’t bear to watch the boy die!" While she sat at a distance, she wept loudly.
New Living Translation
Chapter 21
9
But Sarah saw Ishmael — the son of Abraham and her Egyptian servant Hagar — making fun of her son, Isaac.
10
So she turned to Abraham and demanded, 'Get rid of that slave woman and her son. He is not going to share the inheritance with my son, Isaac. I won’t have it!'
11
This upset Abraham very much because Ishmael was his son.
12
But God told Abraham, 'Do not be upset over the boy and your servant. Do whatever Sarah tells you, for Isaac is the son through whom your descendants will be counted.
13
But I will also make a nation of the descendants of Hagar’s son because he is your son, too.'
14
So Abraham got up early the next morning, prepared food and a container of water, and strapped them on Hagar’s shoulders. Then he sent her away with their son, and she wandered aimlessly in the wilderness of Beersheba.
15
When the water was gone, she put the boy in the shade of a bush.
16
Then she went and sat down by herself about a hundred yards away. 'I don’t want to watch the boy die,' she said, as she burst into tears.

Chapter 21
9
But Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, laughing.
10
So she said to Abraham, "Cast out this slave woman with her son, for the son of this slave woman shall not be heir with my son Isaac."
11
And the thing was very displeasing to Abraham on account of his son.
12
But God said to Abraham, "Be not displeased because of the boy and because of your slave woman. Whatever Sarah says to you, do as she tells you, for through Isaac shall your offspring be named.
13
And I will make a nation of the son of the slave woman also, because he is your offspring."
14
So Abraham rose early in the morning and took bread and a skin of water and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, along with the child, and sent her away. And she departed and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
15
When the water in the skin was gone, she put the child under one of the bushes.
16
Then she went and sat down opposite him a good way off, about the distance of a bowshot, for she said, "Let me not look on the death of the child." And as she sat opposite him, she lifted up her voice and wept.
New International Version
Chapter 21
9
But Sarah saw that the son whom Hagar the Egyptian had borne to Abraham was mocking,
10
and she said to Abraham, "Get rid of that slave woman and her son, for that woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with my son Isaac."
11
The matter distressed Abraham greatly because it concerned his son.
12
But God said to him, "Do not be so distressed about the boy and your slave woman. Listen to whatever Sarah tells you, because it is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.
13
I will make the son of the slave into a nation also, because he is your offspring."
14
Early the next morning Abraham took some food and a skin of water and gave them to Hagar. He set them on her shoulders and then sent her off with the boy. She went on her way and wandered in the Desert of Beersheba.
15
When the water in the skin was gone, she put the boy under one of the bushes.
16
Then she went off and sat down about a bowshot away, for she thought, "I cannot watch the boy die." And as she sat there, she began to sob.
New King James Version
Chapter 21
9
And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, scoffing.
10
Therefore 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.”
11
And the matter was very displeasing in Abraham’s sight because of his son.
12
But 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.
13
Yet I will also make a nation of the son of the bondwoman, because he
is
your seed.”
14
So Abraham rose early in the morning, and took bread and a skin of water; and putting
it
on her shoulder, he gave
it
and the boy to Hagar, and sent her away. Then she departed and wandered in the Wilderness of Beersheba.
15
And the water in the skin was used up, and she placed the boy under one of the shrubs.
16
Then she went and sat down across from
him
at a distance of about a bowshot; for she said to herself, “Let me not see the death of the boy.” So she sat opposite
him,
and lifted her voice and wept.
