Genesis 21:13

וְ גַם אֶת בֶּן הָ אָמָה לְ גֹוי אֲשִׂימֶנּוּ כִּי זַרְעֲךָ הוּא
And also אֶת-the builder of the Slavewoman to a nation I am placing him, for your seed is himself.`726
726

From the impersonal “a seed” (He-Laughs) to the personal “your seed” (Ishmael). He-Laughs is never promised to become a nation.
