*
So ,
after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan ,
Sar '
ai ,
Abram '
s wife ,
took Hagar the Egyptian ,
her maid ,
and gave her to Abram her husband as a wife .
*
And he went in to Hagar ,
and she conceived ;
and when she saw that she had conceived ,
she looked with contempt on her mistress .
*
And Sar '
ai said to Abram , "
May the wrong done to me be on you !
I gave my maid to your embrace ,
and when she saw that she had conceived ,
she looked on me with contempt .
May the LORD judge between you and me !"
*
But Abram said to Sar '
ai , "
Behold ,
your maid is in your power ;
do to her as you please ."
Then Sar '
ai dealt harshly with her ,
and she fled from her .
