Genesis, Chapter 21, verses 9-13

⁹ But Sarah saw that the son whom Hagar the Egyptian had borne to Abraham was mocking,

¹⁰ and she said to Abraham, "Get rid of that slave woman and her son, for that slave woman's son will never share in the inheritance with my son Isaac."

¹¹ The matter distressed Abraham greatly because it concerned his son.

¹² But God said to him, "Do not be so distressed about the boy and your maidservant. Listen to whatever Sarah tells you, because it is through Isaac that your offspring² will be reckoned.

¹³ I will make the son of the maidservant into a nation also, because he is your offspring."
