Genesis 21
1 And Jehovah hath looked after Sarah as He hath said, and Jehovah doth to Sarah as He hath spoken;
The lorde visyted Sara as he had sayde and dyd vnto her acordynge as he had spoken.
2 and Sarah conceiveth, and beareth a son to Abraham, to his old age, at the appointed time that God hath spoken of with him;
And Sara was with childe and bare Abraha a sonne in his olde age euen the same season which the LORde had appoynted.
3 and Abraham calleth the name of his son who is born to him, whom Sarah hath born to him — Isaac;
And Abraham called his sonnes name that was borne vnto him which Sara bare him Isaac:
4 and Abraham circumciseth Isaac his son, [being] a son of eight days, as God hath commanded him.
and Abra circucysed Isaac his sone whe he was. viij. dayes olde as God commaunded him
5 And Abraham [is] a son of a hundred years in Isaac his son being born to him,
And Abraha was an hundred yere olde when his sonne Isaac was borne vnto him.
6 and Sarah saith, 'God hath made laughter for me; every one who is hearing laugheth for me.'
And Sara sayde: God hath made me a laughinge stocke: for all yt heare will laugh at me
7 She saith also, 'Who hath said to Abraham, Sarah hath suckled sons, that I have born a son for his old age?'
She sayde also: who wolde haue sayde vnto Abraham that Sara shulde haue geuen childern sucke or yt I shulde haue borne him a sonne in his olde age:
8 And the lad groweth, and is weaned, and Abraham maketh a great banquet in the day of Isaac's being weaned;
The childe grewe and was wened and Abraham made a great feast the same daye that Isaac was wened.
9 and Sarah seeth the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she hath borne to Abraham, mocking,
Sara sawe the sonne of Hagar the Egiptian which she had borne vnto Abraham a mockynge.
10 and she saith to Abraham, 'Cast out this handmaid and her son; for the son of this handmaid hath no possession with my son — with Isaac.'
Then she sayde vnto Abraham: put awaye this bondemayde and hyr sonne: for the sonne of this bondwoman shall not be heyre with my sonne Isaac:
11 And the thing is very wrong in the eyes of Abraham, for his son's sake;
But the wordes semed verey greavous in Abrahams syghte because of his sonne.
12 and God saith unto Abraham, 'Let it not be wrong in thine eyes because of the youth, and because of thy handmaid: all that Sarah saith unto thee — hearken to her voice, for in Isaac is a seed called to thee.
Than the LORde sayde vnto Abraham: let it not be greavous vnto the because of the ladd and of thy bondmayde: But in all that Sara hath saide vnto the heare hir voyce for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
13 As to the son of the handmaid also, for a nation I set him, because he [is] thy seed.'
Moreouer of the sonne of the Bondwoman will I make a nation because he is thy seed.
14 And Abraham riseth early in the morning, and taketh bread, and a bottle of water, and giveth unto Hagar (placing [it] on her shoulder), also the lad, and sendeth her out; and she goeth on, and goeth astray in the wilderness of Beer-Sheba;
And Abraham rose vp early in the mornyng and toke brede and a bottell with water and gaue it vnto Hagar puttynge it on hir shulders wyth the lad also and sent her awaye. And she departed and wadred vpp and doune in the wyldernes of Berseba.
15 and the water is consumed from the bottle, and she placeth the lad under one of the shrubs.
When the water was spent that was in the botell she cast the lad vnder a bush
16 And she goeth and sitteth by herself over-against, afar off, about a bow-shot, for she said, 'Let me not look on the death of the lad;' and she sitteth over-against, and lifteth up her voice, and weepeth.
and went and satt her out of syghte a great waye as it were a bowshote off: For she sayde: I will not se the lad dye. And she satt doune out of syghte and lyfte vp hyr voyce and wepte.
17 And God heareth the voice of the youth; and the messenger of God calleth unto Hagar from the heavens, and saith to her, 'What to thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath hearkened unto the voice of the youth where he [is];
And God herde the voyce of the childe. And the angell of God called Hagar out of heaven and sayde vnto her: What ayleth the Hagar? Feare not for God hath herde the voyce of the childe where he lyeth.
18 rise, lift up the youth, and lay hold on him with thy hand, for for a great nation I set him.'
Aryse and lyfte vp the lad and take hym in thy hande for I will make off him a greate people.
19 And God openeth her eyes, and she seeth a well of water, and she goeth and filleth the bottle [with] water, and causeth the youth to drink;
And God opened hir eyes and she sawe a well of water. And she went and fylled the bottell with water and gaue the boye drynke.
20 and God is with the youth, and he groweth, and dwelleth in the wilderness, and is an archer;
And God was wyth the lad and he grewe and dweld in the wildernesse and became an archer.
21 and he dwelleth in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother taketh for him a wife from the land of Egypt.
And he dweld in the wyldernesse of Pharan. And hys mother gott him a wyfe out of the land of Egypte.
22 And it cometh to pass at that time that Abimelech speaketh — Phichol also, head of his host — unto Abraham, saying, 'God [is] with thee in all that thou art doing;
And it chaunced the same season that Abimelech and Phicoll his chefe captayne spake vnto Abraham saynge: God is wyth the in all that thou doist.
23 and now, swear to me by God here: thou dost not lie to me, or to my continuator, or to my successor; according to the kindness which I have done with thee thou dost with me, and with the land in which thou hast sojourned.'
Now therfore swere vnto me even here by God that thou wylt not hurt me nor my childern nor my childerns childern. But that thou shalt deale with me and the contre where thou art a straunger acordynge vnto the kyndnesse that I haue shewed the.
24 And Abraham saith, 'I — I do swear.'
Then sayde Abraham: I wyll swere.
25 And Abraham reasoned with Abimelech concerning the matter of a well of water which Abimelech's servants have taken violently away,
And Abraham rebuked Abimelech for a well of water which Abimelech servauntes had taken awaye.
26 and Abimelech saith, 'I have not known who hath done this thing, and even thou didst not declare to me, and I also, I have not heard save to-day.'
And Abimelech answered I wyst not who dyd it: Also thou toldest me not nether herde I of it but this daye.
27 And Abraham taketh sheep and oxen, and giveth to Abimelech, and they make, both of them, a covenant;
And Abraham toke shepe and oxen and gaue them vnto Abimelech. And they made both of them a bonde together.
28 and Abraham setteth seven Lambs of the flock by themselves.
And Abraham sett vij. lambes by them selues.
29 And Abimelech saith unto Abraham, 'What [are] they — these seven lambs which thou hast set by themselves?'
And Abimelech sayde vnto Abraham: what meane these. vij. lamdes which thou hast sett by them selues.
30 And he saith, 'For — the seven lambs thou dost accept from my hand, so that it becometh a witness for me that I have digged this well;'
And he answered: vij. lambes shalt thou take of my hande that it maye be a wytnesse vnto me that I haue dygged this well:
31 therefore hath he called that place 'Beer-Sheba,' for there have both of them sworn.
Wherfore the place is called Berseba because they sware both of them.
32 And they make a covenant in Beer-Sheba, and Abimelech riseth — Phichol also, head of his host — and they turn back unto the land of the Philistines;
Thus made they a bonde to gether at Berseba. Than Abimelech and Phicoll his chefe captayne rose vp and turned agayne vnto the lande of the Philistines.
33 and [Abraham] planteth a tamarisk in Beer-Sheba, and preacheth there in the name of Jehovah, God age-during;
And Abraham planted a wodd in Berseba and called there on the name of the LORde the everlastynge God:
34 and Abraham sojourneth in the land of the Philistines many days.
and dwelt in the Phelistinlade alonge season
