And when Sara had seen the son of Agar, the Egyptian, playing with Isaac, her son, she said to Abraham:

Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with my son Isaac.

Abraham took this grievously for his son.

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.

And when the water in the bottle was spent, she cast the boy under one of the trees that were there.
