Genesis 16:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Sarai was Abram's wife, but she did not have any children. She had an Egyptian slave named Hagar.
2 Sarai told Abram, "The Lord has not allowed me to have children, so sleep with my slave. Maybe she can have a son, and I will accept him as my own." Abram did what Sarai said.
3 So after living ten years in the land of Canaan, Sarai gave her Egyptian slave to Abram as a second wife.
4 Abram slept with Hagar, and she became pregnant. When Hagar realized this, she became very proud and began to feel that she was better than Sarai her owner.
5 Then Sarai said to Abram, "My slave girl now hates me, and I blame you for this. I gave her to you, and she became pregnant. Then she began to feel that she is better than I am. I want the Lord to judge which of us is right."
6 But Abram said to Sarai, "She is your slave. You can do anything you want to her." So Sarai was cruel to Hagar, and Hagar ran away.
7 The Angel of the Lord found Hagar near a spring of water in the desert. The spring was by the road to Shur.
8 The angel said, "Hagar, Sarai's slave girl, why are you here? Where are you going?" Hagar said, "I am running away from Sarai."
9 The Angel of the Lord said to her, "Sarai is your owner. Go home to her and obey her."
10 The Angel of the Lord also said, "From you will come many people. There will be so many people that they cannot be counted."
11 Then the Angel of the Lord said, "Hagar, you are now pregnant, and you will have a son. You will name him Ishmael, because the Lord has heard that you were treated badly.
12 Ishmael will be wild and free like a wild donkey. He will be against everyone, and everyone will be against him. He will move from place to place and camp near his brothers."
13 The Lord talked to Hagar. She began to use a new name for God. She said to him, "You are 'God Who Sees Me.'" She said this because she thought, "I see that even in this place God sees me and cares for me!"
14 So the well there was called Beer Lahai Roi. It is between Kadesh and Bered.
15 Hagar gave birth to Abram's son, and Abram named the son Ishmael.
16 Abram was 86 years old when Ishmael was born from Hagar.
1 Now Sarai H8297 Abram's H87 wife H802 bore him no children H3205 H3808 : and she had an handmaid, H8198 an Egyptian, H4713 whose name H8034 was Hagar. H1904
2 And Sarai H8297 said H559 unto H413 Abram, H87 Behold H2009 now, H4994 the LORD H3068 hath restrained H6113 me from bearing H4480 H3205 : I pray thee, H4994 go in H935 unto H413 my maid; H8198 it may be H194 that I may obtain children H1129 by H4480 her . And Abram H87 hearkened H8085 to the voice H6963 of Sarai. H8297
3 And Sarai H8297 Abram's H87 wife H802 took H3947 H853 Hagar H1904 her maid H8198 the Egyptian, H4713 after H4480 H7093 Abram H87 had dwelt H3427 ten H6235 years H8141 in the land H776 of Canaan, H3667 and gave H5414 her to her husband H376 Abram H87 to be his wife. H802
4 And he went in H935 unto H413 Hagar, H1904 and she conceived: H2029 and when she saw H7200 that H3588 she had conceived, H2029 her mistress H1404 was despised H7043 in her eyes. H5869
5 And Sarai H8297 said H559 unto H413 Abram, H87 My wrong H2555 be upon H5921 thee: I H595 have given H5414 my maid H8198 into thy bosom; H2436 and when she saw H7200 that H3588 she had conceived, H2029 I was despised H7043 in her eyes: H5869 the LORD H3068 judge H8199 between H996 me and thee.
6 But Abram H87 said H559 unto H413 Sarai, H8297 Behold, H2009 thy maid H8198 is in thy hand; H3027 do H6213 to her as it pleaseth H2896 H5869 thee . And when Sarai H8297 dealt hardly H6031 with her , she fled H1272 from her face H4480 H6440 .
7 And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 found H4672 her by H5921 a fountain H5869 of water H4325 in the wilderness, H4057 by H5921 the fountain H5869 in the way H1870 to Shur. H7793
8 And he said, H559 Hagar, H1904 Sarai's H8297 maid, H8198 whence H335 H4480 H2088 camest H935 thou? and whither H575 wilt thou go H1980 ? And she said, H559 I H595 flee H1272 from the face H4480 H6440 of my mistress H1404 Sarai. H8297
9 And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 said H559 unto her, Return H7725 to H413 thy mistress, H1404 and submit thyself H6031 under H8478 her hands. H3027
10 And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 said H559 unto her , I will multiply thy seed exceedingly H7235 H7235 H853 H2233 , that it shall not H3808 be numbered H5608 for multitude H4480 H7230 .
11 And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 said H559 unto her, Behold, H2009 thou art with child, H2030 and shalt bear H3205 a son, H1121 and shalt call H7121 his name H8034 Ishmael; H3458 because H3588 the LORD H3068 hath heard H8085 H413 thy affliction. H6040
12 And he H1931 will be H1961 a wild H6501 man; H120 his hand H3027 will be against every man, H3605 and every man's H3605 hand H3027 against him ; and he shall dwell H7931 in the presence H5921 H6440 of all H3605 his brethren. H251
13 And she called H7121 the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 that spoke H1696 unto H413 her, Thou H859 God H410 seest H7210 me: for H3588 she said, H559 Have I also H1571 here H1988 looked H7200 after H310 him that seeth H7200 me?
14 Wherefore H5921 H3651 the well H875 was called H7121 Beer- H883 lahai-roi; behold, H2009 it is between H996 Kadesh H6946 and Bered. H1260
15 And Hagar H1904 bore H3205 Abram H87 a son: H1121 and Abram H87 called H7121 his son's H1121 name, H8034 which H834 Hagar H1904 bore, H3205 Ishmael. H3458
