Genesis 26:5 in Context — Genesis 26

3 Habita nesta terra, e serei contigo, e te abençoarei; porque a ti e à tua descendência darei todas estas terras, e confirmarei o juramento que jurei a Abraão teu pai:

4 E multiplicarei tua descendência como as estrelas do céu, e darei à tua descendência todas estas terras; e todas as nações da terra serão abençoadas em tua descendência.

5 Porquanto ouviu Abraão minha voz, e guardou meu preceito, meus mandamentos, meus estatutos e minhas leis.

6 Habitou, pois, Isaque em Gerar.

7 E os homens daquele lugar lhe perguntaram acerca de sua mulher; e ele respondeu: É minha irmã; porque teve medo de dizer: É minha mulher; que talvez, disse, os homens do lugar me matem por causa de Rebeca; porque era de belo aspecto.
