Please H4994 have H935 relations H935 with H935 my slave H8198 woman H8198; perhaps H194 I will [fn]obtain H1129 children H1129 through H4480 her.” And Abram H87 listened H8085 to the voice H6963 of Sarai H8297.

And you shall name H7121 H8034 him [fn]Ishmael H3458,

And he will live H7931 [fn]in H5921 H6440 defiance H5921 H6440 of all H3605 his brothers H251.”
