Genesis 16:10-12
Legacy Standard Bible
10 Moreover, the (A)angel of Yahweh said to her, “(B)I will greatly multiply your seed so that [a]they will be too many to be counted.” 11 And the angel of Yahweh said to her further,
“Behold, you [b]are with child,
And you will bear a son;
And you shall call his name [c]Ishmael,
Because (C)Yahweh has heard your affliction.
12 And he will be a (D)wild donkey of a man,
His hand will be against everyone,
And everyone’s hand will be against him;
And he will dwell [d](E)in the face of all his brothers.”
