Genesis 21:1-12 ▼

1 And YHWH has looked after Sarah as He has said, and YHWH does to Sarah as He has spoken;

2 and Sarah conceives, and bears a son to Abraham, to his old age, at the appointed time that God has spoken of with him;

3 and Abraham calls the name of his son who is born to him, whom Sarah has borne to him—Isaac;

4 and Abraham circumcises his son Isaac, [being] a son of eight days, as God has commanded him.

5 And Abraham [is] a son of one hundred years in his son Isaac being born to him,

6 and Sarah says, “God has made laughter for me; everyone who is hearing laughs for me.”

7 She also says, “Who has said to Abraham, Sarah has suckled sons, that I have born a son for his old age?”

8 And the boy grows, and is weaned, and Abraham makes a great banquet in the day of Isaac’s being weaned;

9 and Sarah sees the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she has borne to Abraham, mocking,

10 and she says to Abraham, “Cast out this handmaid and her son; for the son of this handmaid has no possession with my son—with Isaac.”

11 And the thing is very wrong in the eyes of Abraham, for his son’s sake;

12 and God says to Abraham, “Let it not be wrong in your eyes because of the youth, and because of your handmaid: all that Sarah says to you—listen to her voice, for in Isaac is a seed called to you.
