7. The angel of the Lord found Hagar near a spring of water in the desert. The spring was beside the road to Shur.
8. He said, "Hagar, you are the servant of Sarai. Where have you come from? Where are you going?" "I'm running away from my owner Sarai," she answered.
9. Then the angel of the Lord told her, "Go back to the woman who owns you. Obey her."
10. The angel continued, "I will greatly increase the number of your children after you. You will have more of them than anyone can count."
11. The angel of the Lord also said to her, "You are now pregnant. You will have a son. You will name him Ishmael. That is because the Lord has heard about your suffering.
