Genesis 16:10-12
Expanded Bible
10 The angel of the Lord also said, “I will ·give you so many descendants [L greatly multiply your seed so that] they cannot be counted.”
11 The ·angel [messenger] added,
“You ·are now pregnant [have conceived],
and you will ·have [L give birth to] a son.
You will name him Ishmael [C sounds like the verb “to hear”],
because the Lord has heard ·your cries [L of your affliction].
12 Ishmael will be ·like a wild donkey [L a wild donkey/ass of a man].
·He [L His hand] will be against everyone,
and ·everyone [L everyone’s hand] will be against him.
He will ·attack [L dwell against] all his brothers.”
