Genesis 16:4 in Context — Genesis 16
2 Disse, pois, Sarai a Abrão: Já vês que o SENHOR me fez estéril: rogo-te que entres a minha serva; talvez terei filhos dela. E atendeu Abrão ao dito de Sarai.
3 E Sarai, mulher de Abrão, tomou a Agar sua serva egípcia, ao fim de dez anos que havia habitado Abrão na terra de Canaã, e deu-a a Abrão seu marido por mulher.
4 E ele se deitou com Agar, a qual concebeu: e quando viu que havia concebido, olhava com desprezo à sua senhora.
5 Então Sarai disse a Abrão: Minha afronta seja sobre ti; eu pus minha serva em teus braços, e vendo-se grávida, me olha com desprezo; julgue o SENHOR entre mim e ti.
6 E respondeu Abrão a Sarai: Eis aí tua serva em tua mão, faze com ela o que bem te parecer. E quando Sarai a afligiu, fugiu de sua presença.
