Genesis 21:17-19

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ Ishmael was crying and God heard him. The angel of God spoke to Hagar from heaven. He said, ‘What is the trouble, Hagar? Do not be afraid. God has heard the boy while he is crying there. ¹⁸ Go over to him and lift him up. Take hold of his hand and help him to stand. I will make him become a great nation of people.’^[a]

¹⁹ Then God helped Hagar to see clearly. She saw a well with water in it. She went to the well and she filled the bottle with water. She gave the boy some water to drink.
