²⁰ God watched over him for the rest of his life. Ishmael grew up, lived in the wilderness, and became an expert archer. ²¹ So Ishmael went on to live out his life in the wilderness of Paran. When the time was right, his mother obtained a wife for him from her homeland Egypt.

²² Meanwhile, Abimelech, along with Phicol, the commander of his army, spoke confidentially to Abraham.
