13She gave this name to the Lord who spoke to her: “You are the God who sees me,” for she said, “I have now seen16:13 Or seen the back of the One who sees me.”
13Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, “16:13 Or You, God, see meYou are 16:13 Heb Elroia God who sees me”; for she said, “Have I even seen Him here and lived after 16:13 Lit His seeing meHe saw me?”
