Genesis Chapter 16 - Hagar and Ishmael
Sarai had proven to be barren, so she gave Abram her maid servant Hagar as wife.
After Hagar became pregnant, she began to despise Sarai. Sarai called her actions out to Abram and he gave Hagar back to Sarai. Sarai in turn humilated Hagar causing her to run away. An angel appeared to Hagar and instructed her to return to Sarai and humble herself. The angel told her to name her son Ishmael and promised her Ishmael would one day become a great nation.
Abram was 86 years old when Ishmael was born.
