Genesis 25:15

“As for Ishmael, I have heard you; behold, I will bless him and will make him fruitful and will multiply him exceedingly. He shall become the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.

“And of the son of the maidservant I will make a nation also, because he is your seed.”

“Arise, lift up the boy, and hold him by the hand, for I will make a great nation of him.”

Yet Gideon said to them, “I would make one request of you, that each of you give me an earring from his spoil.” (For they had gold earrings because they were Ishmaelites.)

These are their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael was Nebaioth, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

They made war against the Hagrites, Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab.

“The caravans of Tema looked; The travelers of Sheba hoped for them.

The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites;

Bring water to meet the thirsty, O inhabitants of the land of Tema, Meet with bread the one who has fled.
