Genesis 16:10

WEB

The angel of the Lord said to her, "I will greatly multiply your seed, that they will not be numbered for multitude."

KJV

And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.

Commentary

And the angel of the Lord said unto her,.... The same as before, who, by what follows, appears to be Jehovah himself : I will multiply thy seed exceedingly; not that she should have many children herself, for that she had more than this one she now went with, is not certain; but that that seed she had conceived should be exceedingly multiplied, and he should have a numerous posterity, as he had twelve princes sprung from him, the heads of Arab nations: that it shall not be numbered for multitude; such the Turks are at this day, supposed to be the seed of Ishmael, Hagar's son.
