Gênesis 26:21-31

Listen to Gênesis 26:21-31
21 Então cavaram outro poço, pelo qual também contenderam; por isso chamou-lhe Sitna.
22 E partiu dali, e cavou ainda outro poço; por este não contenderam; pelo que chamou-lhe Reobote, dizendo: Pois agora o Senhor nos deu largueza, e havemos de crescer na terra.
23 Depois subiu dali a Beer-Seba.
24 E apareceu-lhe o Senhor na mesma noite e disse: Eu sou o Deus de Abraão, teu pai; não temas, porque eu sou contigo, e te abençoarei e multiplicarei a tua descendência por amor do meu servo Abraão.
25 Isaque, pois, edificou ali um altar e invocou o nome do Senhor; então armou ali a sua tenda, e os seus servos cavaram um poço.
26 Então Abimeleque veio a ele de Gerar, com Aüzate, seu amigo, e Ficol, o chefe do seu exército.
27 E perguntou-lhes Isaque: Por que viestes ter comigo, visto que me odiais, e me repelistes de vós?
28 Responderam eles: Temos visto claramente que o Senhor é contigo, pelo que dissemos: Haja agora juramento entre nós, entre nós e ti; e façamos um pacto contigo,
29 que não nos farás mal, assim como nós não te havemos tocado, e te fizemos somente o bem, e te deixamos ir em paz. Agora tu és o bendito do Senhor.
30 Então Isaque lhes deu um banquete, e comeram e beberam.
31 E levantaram-se de manhã cedo e juraram de parte a parte; depois Isaque os despediu, e eles se despediram dele em paz.

INTRODUCTION TO GENESIS 26

This chapter treats of Isaac's removal to Gerar, occasioned by a famine, Ge 26:1; of the Lord's appearance to him there, advising him to sojourn in that place, and not go down to Egypt; renewing the covenant he had made with Abraham, concerning giving that country to him and his seed, Ge 26:2-6; of what happened unto him at Gerar on account of his wife, Ge 26:7-11; of Isaac's great prosperity and success, which drew the envy of the Philistines upon him, Ge 26:12-15; of his departure from hence to the valley of Gerar, at the instance of Abimelech; and of the contentions between his herdsmen, and those of Gerar, about wells of water, which caused him to remove to Beersheba, Ge 26:16-23; of the Lord's appearance to him there, renewing the above promise to him, where he built an altar, pitched his tent, and his servants dug a well, Ge 26:24,25; of Abimelech's coming to him thither, and making a covenant with him, Ge 26:26-31; which place had its name from the oath then made, and the well there dug, Ge 26:32,33; and lastly, of the marriage of Esau, which was a great grief to Isaac and Rebekah, Ge 26:34,35.
