Genesis 16:6

But Abram said unto Sarai, Behold, thy maid [is] in thy hand; do to her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.

But Abram {H87} said {H559} unto Sarai {H8297}, Behold, thy maid {H8198} is in thy hand {H3027}; do {H6213} to her as it pleaseth thee {H2896}{H5869}. And when Sarai {H8297} dealt hardly with {H6031} her, she fled {H1272} from her face {H6440}.

However, Avram answered Sarai, "Look, she's your slave-girl. Deal with her as you think fit."Then Sarai treated her so harshly that she ran away from her.

“Here,” said Abram, “your servant is in your hands. Do whatever you want with her.” Then Sarai treated Hagar so harshly that she fled from her.

But Abram said unto Sarai, Behold, thy maid is in thy hand; do to her that which is good in thine eyes. And Sarai dealt hardly with her, and she fled from her face.
