Parallel

Genesis 21:16

Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible

ἀπελθοῦσα δὲ ἐκάθητο ἀπέναντι αὐτοῦ μακρότερον, ὡσεὶ τόξου βολήν· εἶπεν γάρ Οὐ μὴ ἴδω τὸν θάνατον τοῦ παιδίου μου. καὶ ἐκάθητο ἀπέναντι αὐτοῦ μακρόθεν· ἀναβοῆσαν δὲ τὸ παιδίον ἔκλανσεν.
Then she went off and sat down nearby, about a bowshot away, for she said, “I cannot bear to watch the boy die!” And as she sat nearby, she lifted up her voice and wept (note: Hebrew; LXX the child lifted up his voice and wept).
