The angel of ADONAI said to her, "Go back to your mistress, and submit to her authority."

The angel of ADONAI said to her, "I will greatly increase your descendants; there will be so many that it will be impossible to count them."

He will be a wild donkey of a man, with his hand against everyone and everyone's hand against him, living his life at odds with all his kinsmen."

So she named ADONAI who had spoken with her El Ro'i [God of seeing], because she said, "Have I really seen the One who sees me [and stayed alive]?"

This is why the well has been called Be'er-Lachai-Ro'i [well of the one who lives and sees]; it lies between Kadesh and Bered.
