NET Bible
"He slept with Hagar, and she became pregnant. Once Hagar realized she was pregnant, she despised Sarai."
— Genesis 16:4, NET Bible
The Birth of Ishmael Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, had not given birth to any children, but she had an Egyptian servant named Hagar.
So Sarai said to Abram,“Since the LORD has prevented me from having children, please sleep with my servant. Perhaps I can have a family by her.” Abram did what Sarai told him.
So after Abram had lived in Canaan for ten years, Sarai, Abram’s wife, gave Hagar, her Egyptian servant, to her husband to be his wife.
He slept with Hagar, and she became pregnant. Once Hagar realized she was pregnant, she despised Sarai.
Then Sarai said to Abram,“You have brought this wrong on me! I gave my servant into your embrace, but when she realized that she was pregnant, she despised me. May the LORD judge between you and me!”
Abram said to Sarai,“Since your servant is under your authority, do to her whatever you think best.” Then Sarai treated Hagar harshly, so she ran away from Sarai.
The LORD’s angel found Hagar near a spring of water in the wilderness– the spring that is along the road to Shur.
