Back to Verses

And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.

Ishmael, I have listened to you. I will bless him and make him have many children. He will become a very important leader with 12 sons, and I will create a large nation from him.
