¹⁸ And Abraham said unto God, Oh that Ishmael might live before thee!

¹² when thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee its strength; a fugitive and a wanderer shalt thou be in the earth.

¹⁴ Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the ground; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth; and it will come to pass, that whosoever findeth me will slay me.

⁶ Many there are that say, Who will show us `any' good? Jehovah, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

¹² And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, And settest me before thy face for ever.

² but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, so that he will not hear.

³⁹ and I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:

³⁹ For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, `even' as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him.
