Context
10Malaika akaendelea akasema, “Nitazidisha wazao wako, hivi kwamba watakuwa wengi mno wasiohesabika.” 11Pia malaika wa Bwana akamwambia:
“Wewe sasa una mimba
nawe utamzaa mwana.
Utamwita jina lake Ishmaeli,*
kwa sababu Bwana amesikia juu ya huzuni yako. 12Atakuwa punda-mwitu katikati ya wanadamu,
mkono wake utakuwa dhidi ya kila mtu
na mkono wa kila mtu dhidi yake,
naye ataishi kwa uhasama
na ndugu zake wote.” 13Hagari akampa Bwana aliyezungumza naye jina hili: “Wewe ndiwe Mungu unionaye mimi,” kwa maana alisema, “Sasa nimemwona yeye anayeniona mimi.” 14Ndiyo sababu kisima kile kikaitwa Beer-Lahai-Roi,* ambacho bado kipo huko hata leo kati ya Kadeshi na Beredi.
