Genesis 21:12 in Context — Genesis 21
10 Portanto disse a Abraão: Expulsa a esta serva e a seu filho; que o filho desta serva não herdará com meu filho, com Isaque.
11 Este dito pareceu grave em grande maneira a Abraão por causa de seu filho.
12 Então disse Deus a Abraão: Não te pareça grave por causa do jovem e de tua serva; em tudo o que te disser Sara, ouve sua voz, porque em Isaque será chamada tua descendência.
13 E também do filho da serva farei nação, porque é descendência tua.
14 Então Abraão se levantou manhã muito cedo, e tomou pão, e um odre de água, e deu-o a Agar, pondo-o sobre seu ombro, e entregou-lhe o jovem, e despediu-a. E ela partiu, e andava errante pelo deserto de Berseba.
