1 And Yahweh he visited Sarah just as he had said and he did Yahweh to Sarah just as he had spoken.
And YHWH visited Sarah as he had said, and YHWH did unto Sarah as he had spoken.
2 And she conceived and she bore Sarah to Abraham a son of old age his to the appointed time which he had spoken with him God.
For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which Elohim had spoken to him.
3 And he called Abraham [the] name of son his who had been born to him whom she had borne to him Sarah Isaac.
And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac.
4 And he circumcised Abraham Isaac son his a son of eight days just as he had commanded him God.

6 And she said Sarah laughter he has made for me God everyone who hears he will laugh to me.
And Sarah said, Elohim hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me.
7 And she said who? has he said to Abraham she has suckled children Sarah for I have borne a son of old age his.
And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? for I have born him a son in his old age.
8 And he grew up the child and he was weaned and he prepared Abraham a feast great on [the] day was weaned Isaac.
And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned.

And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking.
10 And she said to Abraham drive out the slave woman this and son her for not he will inherit [the] son of the slave woman this with son my with Isaac.
Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.
11 And it was displeasing the matter exceedingly in [the] eyes of Abraham on [the] causes of son his.
And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.
12 And he said God to Abraham may not it be displeasing in view your on the lad and on slave woman your all that she says to you Sarah listen to voice her for in Isaac it will be named of you offspring.
And Elohim said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
13 And also [the] son of the slave woman into a nation I will make him for [is] offspring your he.
And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.
14 And he rose early Abraham - in the morning and he took food and a skin of water and he gave [them] to Hagar placing on shoulder her and the boy and he sent away her and she went and she wandered in [the] wilderness of Beer Sheba.

And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
16 And she went and she sat for herself from before at a distance like [the] shooters of a bow for she said may not I look on [the] death of the boy and she sat from before and she lifted up voice her and she wept.
And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lift up her voice, and wept.
17 And he heard God [the] sound of the lad and he called [the] angel of God - to Hagar from the heavens and he said to her what? [is] to you O Hagar may not you be afraid for he has heard God [the] sound of the lad at where he [is] there.
And Elohim heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of Elohim called Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for Elohim hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.
18 Arise lift up the lad and take hold hand your on him for into a nation great I will make him.
Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand; for I will make him a great nation.
19 And he opened God eyes her and she saw a well of water and she went and she filled the skin water and she gave a drink to the lad.
And Elohim opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.

22 And it was at the time that and he said Abimelech and Phicol [the] commander of army his to Abraham saying God [is] with you in all that you [are] doing.
And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, Elohim is with thee in all that thou doest:
23 And therefore swear! to me by God here if you will deal falsely to me and to posterity my and to progeny my according to the loyalty which I have done with you you will do with me and with the land which you have sojourned in it.
Now therefore swear unto me here by Elohim that thou wilt not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son: but according to the kindness that I have done unto thee, thou shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein thou hast sojourned.
24 And he said Abraham I I will swear.
And Abraham said, I will swear.
25 And he rebuked Abraham Abimelech on [the] causes of [the] well of water which they had seized [the] servants of Abimelech.
And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
26 And he said Abimelech not I know who? has he done the thing this and also you not you told to me and also I not I heard except this day.
And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I of it, but to day.
27 And he took Abraham sheep and cattle and he gave [them] to Abimelech and they made [the] two of them a covenant.
And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.
28 And he set Abraham seven ewe-lambs of the flock to alone them.
And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
29 And he said Abimelech to Abraham what? [are] they seven ewe-lambs these which you have set to alone them.
And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?
30 And he said that seven ewe-lambs you will take from hand my in order that it may become for me a witness for I dug the well this.
And he said, For these seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that they may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well.
31 There-fore he called the place that Beer Sheba for there they swore an oath [the] two of them.
Wherefore he called that place Beer-sheba; because there they sware both of them.
32 And they made a covenant at Beer Sheba and he arose Abimelech and Phicol [the] commander of army his and they returned to [the] land of [the] Philistines.
Thus they made a covenant at Beer-sheba: then Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
33 And he planted a tamarisk tree in Beer Sheba and he called there on [the] name of Yahweh [the] God of perpetuity.
