New International Version NIV
3 And Abraham called the name of his son, whom Sara bore him, Isaac.
3
Abraham gave the name Isaac to the son Sarah bore him.
4 And he circumcised him the eighth day, as God had commanded him,
4
When his son Isaac was eight days old, Abraham circumcised him, as God commanded him.
5 When he was a hundred years old: for at this age of his father, was Isaac born.
5
Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.
6 And Sara said: God hath made a laughter for me: whosoever shall hear of it will laugh with me.
6
Sarah said, “God has brought me laughter, and everyone who hears about this will laugh with me.”
7 And again she said: Who would believe that Abraham should hear that Sara gave suck to a son, whom she bore to him in his old age?
7
And she added, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? Yet I have borne him a son in his old age.”
8 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast on the day of his weaning.
8
The child grew and was weaned, and on the day Isaac was weaned Abraham held a great feast.
9 And when Sara had seen the son of Agar, the Egyptian, playing with Isaac, her son, she said to Abraham:
9
But Sarah saw that the son whom Hagar the Egyptian had borne to Abraham was mocking,
10 Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with my son Isaac.
10
and she said to Abraham, “Get rid of that slave woman and her son, for that woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with my son Isaac.”
11 Abraham took this grievously for his son.
11
The matter distressed Abraham greatly because it concerned his son.
12 And God said to him: Let it not seem grievous to thee for the boy, and for thy bondwoman: in all that Sara hath said to thee, hearken to her voice: for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
12
But God said to him, “Do not be so distressed about the boy and your slave woman. Listen to whatever Sarah tells you, because it is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.
13 But I will make the son also of the bondwoman a great nation, because he is thy seed.
13
I will make the son of the slave into a nation also, because he is your offspring.”
