1 And Sarai the wife of Abram has not borne to him, and she had a maidservant, an Egyptianess, and her name was Hagar. 2 And Sarai said to Abram, “Behold now, YHWH has restrained me from bearing children. Go in, please, to my maidservant; perhaps I shall be built up from her.” And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai. 3 And Sarai, wife of Abram, took Hagar the Egyptianess, her maidservant, after ten years of Abram dwelling in the land of Canaan, and she gave her to Abram, her husband, for a wife. 4 And he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And she saw that she had conceived, and her mistress became despised in her eyes. Genesis 16:1-4, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
