Genesis 26:16 in Context — Genesis 26

14 E teve rebanho de ovelhas, e rebanho de vacas, e grande número de servos; e os filisteus tiveram inveja dele.

15 E todos os poços que os criados de Abraão seu pai haviam aberto em seus dias, os filisteus os haviam fechado e enchido da terra.

16 E disse Abimeleque a Isaque: Aparta-te de nós, porque muito mais poderoso que nós te fizeste.

17 E Isaque se foi dali; e assentou suas tendas no vale de Gerar, e habitou ali.

18 E voltou a abrir Isaque os poços de água que haviam aberto nos dias de Abraão seu pai, e que os filisteus haviam fechado, depois de Abraão ter morrido; e chamou-os pelos nomes que seu pai os havia chamado.
