21:1And Jehovah visited Sarah as He had said, and Jehovah did to Sarah as He had promised. Compare
21:2And Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the appointed time of which God had spoken to him. Compare

21:8And the child grew and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned. Compare
21:9And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking. Compare
21:10So she said to Abraham, Cast out this maidservant and her son, for the son of this maidservant shall not inherit with my son Isaac. Compare
21:11And the matter displeased Abraham greatly on account of his son. Compare

21:13And of the son of the maidservant I will also make a nation, because he is your seed. Compare
21:14And Abraham rose up early in the morning and took bread and a waterskin full of water and gave them to Hagar, putting them on her shoulder, and gave her the child and sent her away. And she departed and wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba. Compare
21:15When the water in the waterskin was finished, she cast the child under one of the bushes. Compare
21:16And she went and sat herself down opposite him, a fair distance away, about a bowshot away, for she said, Do not let me look upon the death of the child. And as she sat opposite him, she lifted up her voice and wept. Compare

21:18Rise up; lift up the boy, and hold him with your hand, for I will make of him a great nation. Compare
21:19And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. And she went and filled the waterskin with water and gave the boy a drink. Compare
21:20And God was with the boy, and he grew. And he dwelt in the wilderness and became an archer. Compare
21:21And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran. And his mother took a wife for him from the land of Egypt. Compare
21:22And at that time Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, God is with you in all that you do. Compare
21:23Now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me or with my offspring or with my posterity. According to the kindness that I have shown to you, you shall do to me and to the land in which you have sojourned. Compare
21:24And Abraham said, I swear it. Compare
21:25And Abraham confronted Abimelech concerning the well of water which Abimelech's servants had taken by force. Compare
21:26And Abimelech said, I do not know who has done this thing; and you did not tell me about it, nor have I even heard of it until today. Compare
21:27And Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech. And the two of them made a covenant. Compare
21:28And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves. Compare
21:29And Abimelech said to Abraham, What is the meaning of these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves? Compare
21:30And he said, These seven ewe lambs you shall take from my hand, that it may be a witness for me that I dug this well. Compare
21:31Therefore he called that place Beer-sheba, because there the two of them swore an oath. Compare
21:32So they made a covenant at Beer-sheba; and Abimelech rose up with Phicol the captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines. Compare
21:33And Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beer-sheba, and there he called on the name of Jehovah, the Eternal God. Compare
21:34And Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days. Compare

22:8And Abraham said, God Himself will provide the lamb for a burnt offering, my son. So the two of them walked on together. Compare
22:9And they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built the altar there and laid the wood in order and bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar on top of the wood. Compare
22:10And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son. Compare
22:11And the Angel of Jehovah called to him from the heavens and said, Abraham, Abraham. And he said, Here I am. Compare
22:12And He said, Do not stretch out your hand upon the boy, nor do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me. Compare
22:13And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram, caught in the thicket by its horns. And Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up for a burnt offering in place of his son. Compare
