14And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and [gave her] the child, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.

15And the water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.

16And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bowshot. For she said, Let me not look upon the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.

17And God heard the voice of the lad. And the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? Fear not. For God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.

18Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thy hand. For I will make him a great nation.

19And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. And she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.

20And God was with the lad, and he grew. And he dwelt in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.
