18 And Abraham (father of many) said to God {Elohim}, “O that Ishmael (God hears) might live under Your blessing!” 19 But God {Elohim} replied, “Your wife Sarah (princess) will indeed bear you a son, and you are to name him Isaac (he laughs). I will establish My covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him. 20 As for Ishmael (God hears), I have heard you, and I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and multiply him greatly. He will become the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation. Genesis 17:18-20, Berean Annotated Bible. Public domain.
