8 The child grew, and on the day that he was weaned, Abraham gave a great feast.
Hagar and Ishmael Are Sent Away
9 One day Ishmael, whom Hagar the Egyptian had borne to Abraham, was playing with Sarah's
son Isaac. 10 Sarah saw them and said to Abraham, “Send this slave and her son away. The son
of this woman must not get any part of your wealth, which my son Isaac should inherit.” 11 This
troubled Abraham very much, because Ishmael also was his son. 12 But God said to Abraham,
“Don't be worried about the boy and your slave Hagar. Do whatever Sarah tells you, because it is
through Isaac that you will have the descendants I have promised. 13 I will also give many
children to the son of the slave woman, so that they will become a nation. He too is your
son.”14 Early the next morning Abraham gave Hagar some food and a leather bag full of water.
He put the child on her back and sent her away. She left and wandered about in the wilderness of
Beersheba. 15 When the water was all gone, she left the child under a bush 16 and sat down
about a hundred yards away. She said to herself, “I can't bear to see my child die.” While she was
sitting there, she began to cry. 17 God heard the boy crying, and from heaven the angel of God
spoke to Hagar, “What are you troubled about, Hagar? Don't be afraid. God has heard the boy
crying. 18 Get up, go and pick him up, and comfort him. I will make a great nation out of his
descendants.” 19 Then God opened her eyes, and she saw a well. She went and filled the leather
bag with water and gave some to the boy. 20 God was with the boy as he grew up; he lived in the
wilderness of Paran and became a skillful hunter. 21 His mother got an Egyptian wife for him.
Matthew 10:28-31
28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather be afraid of God,
who can destroy both body and soul in hell. 29 For only a penny you can buy two sparrows, yet
not one sparrow falls to the ground without your Father's consent. 30 As for you, even the hairs of
your head have all been counted. 31 So do not be afraid; you are worth much more than many
sparrows!
