Genesis 21:17-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁷ God heard the boy crying, and the Messenger of God called to Hagar from heaven. “What’s the matter, Hagar?” he asked her. “Don’t be afraid! God has heard the boy crying from the bushes. ¹⁸ Come on, help the boy up! Take him by the hand, because I’m going to make him into a great nation.”

¹⁹ God opened her eyes. Then she saw a well. She filled the container with water and gave the boy a drink.
