Genesis 16:3-5

3 So Abram’s wife Sarai took Hagar, her Egyptian slave, and gave her to her husband Abram as a wife for him. This happened after Abram had lived in the land of Canaan 10 years. 4 He slept with[a] Hagar, and she became pregnant. When she realized that she was pregnant, she treated her mistress with contempt. 5 Then Sarai said to Abram, “You are responsible for my suffering![b] I put my slave in your arms,[c] and ever since she saw that she was pregnant, she has treated me with contempt. May the Lord judge between me and you.”(A)
