Genesis 27:39 in Context — Genesis 27

37 Isaque respondeu e disse a Esaú: Eis que eu o pus por senhor teu, e lhe dei por servos a todos os seus irmãos: de trigo e de vinho lhe provi: que, pois, farei a ti agora, filho meu?

38 E Esaú respondeu a seu pai: Não tens mais que uma só bênção, meu pai? Abençoa também a mim, meu pai. E levantou Esaú sua voz, e chorou.

39 Então Isaque seu pai falou e disse-lhe: Eis que será tua habitação sem gorduras da terra, E sem orvalho dos céus de acima;

40 E por tua espada viverás, e a teu irmão servirás: E sucederá quando te dominares, Que descarregarás seu jugo de teu pescoço.

41 E odiou Esaú a Jacó pela bênção com que lhe havia abençoado, e disse em seu coração: Chegarão os dias do luto de meu pai, e eu matarei a Jacó meu irmão.
