Genesis 21:14-20 ▼

14 And Abraham rises early in the morning, and takes bread, and a bottle of water, and gives to Hagar (placing [it] on her shoulder), also the boy, and sends her out; and she goes on, and goes astray in the wilderness of Beer-Sheba;

15 and the water is consumed from the bottle, and she places the boy under one of the shrubs.

16 And she goes and sits by herself opposite [him], far off, about a bow-shot, for she said, “Do not let me look on the death of the boy”; and she sits opposite [him], and lifts up her voice, and weeps.

17 And God hears the voice of the youth; and the messenger of God calls to Hagar from the heavens and says to her, “What to you, Hagar? Do not fear; for God has listened to the voice of the youth where he [is];

18 rise, lift up the youth, and lay hold on him with your hand, for I set him for a great nation.”

19 And God opens her eyes, and she sees a well of water, and she goes and fills the bottle [with] water, and causes the youth to drink;

20 and God is with the youth, and he grows, and dwells in the wilderness, and is an archer;
