10. So she said to Abraham, “Drive out this slave with her son, for the son of this slave will not be a coheir with my son Isaac! ”

13. But I will also make a nation of the slave’s son because he is your offspring.”
14. Early in the morning Abraham got up, took bread and a waterskin, put them on Hagar’s shoulders, and sent her and the boy away. She left and wandered in the Wilderness of Beer-sheba.
15. When the water in the skin was gone, she left the boy under one of the bushes.
