01:021:015 And the water was spent in the bottle,
and she cast the child
under
one of the shrubs.
01:021:016 And she went, and sat her down over against
him a good way
off,
as it were a bow shot: for she said, Let me not
see the
death
of the child. And she sat over against him, and
lift up
her
voice, and wept.
01:021:017 And God heard the voice of the lad; and
the angel of God
called
to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth
thee,
Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the
lad
where
he is.
01:021:018 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in
thine hand; for I will
make
him a great nation.
01:021:019 And God opened her eyes, and she saw a
well of water; and she
went,
and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad
drink.
01:021:020 And God was with the lad; and he grew,
and dwelt in the
wilderness,
and became an archer.
01:021:021 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran:
and his mother took
him
a wife out of the land of Egypt.
01:021:022 And it came to pass at that time, that
Abimelech and Phichol
the
chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying,
God
is
with thee in all that thou doest:
01:021:023 Now therefore swear unto me here by God
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.
01:021:024 And Abraham said, I will swear.
01:021:025 And Abraham reproved Abimelech because
of a well of water,
which
Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away.
01:021:026 And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath
done this thing;
neither
didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I of it, but
to
day.
01:021:027 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave
them unto Abimelech;
and
both of them made a covenant.
01:021:028 And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
01:021:029 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What mean
these seven ewe
lambs
which thou hast set by themselves?
01:021:030 And he said, For these seven ewe lambs
shalt thou take of my
hand,
that they may be a witness unto me, that I have digged
this
well.
01:021:031 Wherefore he called that place Beersheba;
because there they
sware
both of them.
01:021:032 Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba:
then Abimelech rose
up,
and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they
returned
into the land of the Philistines.
