Genesis 21
New Creation Bible for Muslims
1And تتراجراماتون visited Sarah as he had said, and تتراجراماتون did unto Sarah as he had spoken. 2And Sarah conceived, and bare Ibrahim (Abraham) a son in his old age, at the set time of which Elokim had spoken to him. 3And Ibrahim (Abraham) called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Ishaq (Isaac). 4And Ibrahim (Abraham) circumcised his son Ishaq (Isaac) when he was eight days old, as Elokim had commanded him. 5And Ibrahim (Abraham) was a hundred years old, when his son Ishaq (Isaac) was born unto him. 6And Sarah said, Elokim hath made me to laugh; every one that heareth will laugh with me. 7And she said, Who would have said unto Ibrahim (Abraham), that Sarah should give children suck? for I have borne him a son in his old age.

8And the child grew, and was weaned: and Ibrahim (Abraham) made a great feast on the day that Ishaq (Isaac) was weaned.

9And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne unto Ibrahim (Abraham), mocking. 10Wherefore she said unto Ibrahim (Abraham), Cast out this handmaid and her son: for the son of this handmaid shall not be heir with my son, even with Ishaq (Isaac). 11And the thing was very grievous in Ibrahim (Abraham)’s sight on account of his son. 12And Elokim said unto Ibrahim (Abraham), Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy handmaid; in all that Sarah saith unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Ishaq (Isaac) shall thy seed be called. 13And also of the son of the handmaid will I make a nation, because he is thy seed. 14And Ibrahim (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 gave her the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.

15And the water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs. 16And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not look upon the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lifted up her voice, and wept. 17And Elokim heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of Elokim called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for Elokim hath heard the voice of the lad where he is. 18Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thy hand; for I will make him a great nation. 19And Elokim opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.

20And Elokim was with the lad, and he grew; and he dwelt in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer. 21And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.

22And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his host spoke unto Ibrahim (Abraham), saying, Elokim is with thee in all that thou doest: 23now therefore swear unto me here by Elokim that thou wilt not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son: but according to the kindness that I have done unto thee, thou shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein thou hast sojourned. 24And Ibrahim (Abraham) said, I will swear. 25And Ibrahim (Abraham) reproved Abimelech because of the well of water, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away. 26And Abimelech said, I know not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I of it, but to-day.

27And Ibrahim (Abraham) took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and they two made a covenant. 28And Ibrahim (Abraham) set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves. 29And Abimelech said unto Ibrahim (Abraham), What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves? 30And he said, These seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that it may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well. 31Wherefore he called that place Beer-sheba; because there they sware both of them. 32So they made a covenant at Beer-sheba: and Abimelech rose up, and Phicol the captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines. 33And Ibrahim (Abraham) planted a tamarisk tree in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of تتراجراماتون, the Everlasting Elokim. 34And Ibrahim (Abraham) sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.
