1 And the Lord came to Sarah as he had said and did to her as he had undertaken.
1 Yahweh visited Sarah as he had said, and Yahweh did to Sarah as he had spoken.
2 And Sarah became with child, and gave Abraham a son when he was old, at the time named by God.
2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
3 And Abraham gave to his son, to whom Sarah had given birth, the name Isaac.
3 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
4 And when his son Isaac was eight days old, Abraham made him undergo circumcision, as God had said to him.
4 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
5 Now Abraham was a hundred years old when the birth of Isaac took place.
5 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.
6 And Sarah said, God has given me cause for laughing, and everyone who has news of it will be laughing with me.
6 Sarah said, “God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me.”
7 And she said, Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would have a child at her breast? for see, I have given him a son now when he is old.
7 She said, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age.”
8 And when the child was old enough to be taken from the breast, Abraham made a great feast.
8 The child grew and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian playing with Isaac.
9 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
10 So she said to Abraham, Send away that woman and her son: for the son of that woman is not to have a part in the heritage with my son Isaac.
10 Therefore she said to Abraham, “Cast out this servant and her son! For the son of this servant will not be heir with my son, Isaac.”
11 And this was a great grief to Abraham because of his son.
11 The thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight on account of his son.
12 But God said, Let it not be a grief to you because of the boy and Hagar his mother; give ear to whatever Sarah says to you, because it is from Isaac that your seed will take its name.
12 God said to Abraham, “Don’t let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your servant. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For your offspring will be named through Isaac.
13 And I will make a nation of the son of your servant-woman, because he is your seed.
13 I will also make a nation of the son of the servant, because he is your child.”
14 And early in the morning Abraham got up, and gave Hagar some bread and a water-skin, and put the boy on her back, and sent her away: and she went, wandering in the waste land of Beer-sheba.
14 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a container of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
15 And when all the water in the skin was used up, she put the child down under a tree.
15 The water in the container was spent, and she put the child under one of the shrubs.
16 And she went some distance away, about an arrow flight, and seating herself on the earth, she gave way to bitter weeping, saying, Let me not see the death of my child.
16 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, “Don’t let me see the death of the child.” She sat opposite him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.
17 And the boy's cry came to the ears of God; and the angel of God said to Hagar from heaven, Hagar, why are you weeping? have no fear, for the child's cry has come to the ears of God.
17 God heard the voice of the boy. The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, “What troubles you, Hagar? Don’t be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.
18 Come, take your child in your arms, for I will make of him a great nation.
18 Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him with your hand. For I will make him a great nation.”
19 Then God made her eyes open, and she saw a water-spring, and she got water in the skin and gave the boy a drink.
19 God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the container with water, and gave the boy a drink.
20 And God was with the boy, and he became tall and strong, and he became a bowman, living in the waste land.
20 God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and as he grew up, he became an archer.
21 And while he was in the waste land of Paran, his mother got him a wife from the land of Egypt.
21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother got a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
22 Now at that time, Abimelech and Phicol, the captain of his army, said to Abraham, I see that God is with you in all you do.
22 At that time, Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, “God is with you in all that you do.
23 Now, then, give me your oath, in the name of God, that you will not be false to me or to my sons after me, but that as I have been good to you, so you will be to me and to this land where you have been living.
23 Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner.”
24 And Abraham said, I will give you my oath.
24 Abraham said, “I will swear.”
25 But Abraham made a protest to Abimelech because of a water-hole which Abimelech's servants had taken by force.
25 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away.
26 But Abimelech said, I have no idea who has done this thing; you never gave me word of it, and I had no knowledge of it till this day.
26 Abimelech said, “I don’t know who has done this thing. You didn’t tell me, and I didn’t hear of it until today.”
27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made an agreement together.
27 Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.
28 And Abraham put seven young lambs of the flock on one side by themselves.
28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
29 Then Abimelech said, What are these seven lambs which you have put on one side?
29 Abimelech said to Abraham, “What do these seven ewe lambs, which you have set by themselves, mean?”
30 And he said, Take these seven lambs from me as a witness that I have made this water-hole.
30 He said, “You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well.”
31 So he gave that place the name Beer-sheba, because there the two of them had given their oaths.
31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore an oath there.
32 So they made an agreement at Beer-sheba, and Abimelech and Phicol, the captain of his army, went back to the land of the Philistines.
32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
33 And Abraham, after planting a holy tree in Beer-sheba, gave worship to the name of the Lord, the Eternal God.
33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there he called on the name of Yahweh, the Everlasting God.
34 And Abraham went on living in the land of the Philistines as in a strange country.
34 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.

For when Isaac was born and called by that name, Sarah showed that her laughter was not that of scornful reproach, but that of joyful praise; for she said, "God hath made me to laugh, so that every one who hears will laugh with me." Then in a little while the bond maid was cast out of the house with …

For when it is said, "In Isaac shall thy seed be called," by this seed is meant solely the city of God; so that from it is separated Abraham's other seed, which was in the son of the bond woman, and which was to be in the sons of Keturah.
