God Heard the Voice of the Lad — Genesis 21:17–21

And 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. Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thy hand; for I will make him a great nation.

And 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.

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

And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
