Genesis 32:11 in Context — Genesis 32

9 E disse Jacó: Deus de meu pai Abraão, e Deus de meu pai Isaque, o SENHOR, que me disseste: Volta-te à tua terra e à tua parentela, e eu te farei bem.

10 Menor sou que todas as misericórdias, e que toda a verdade que usaste para com teu servo; que com meu bordão passei este Jordão, e agora estou sobre dois grupos.

11 Livra-me agora da mão de meu irmão, da mão de Esaú, porque o temo; não venha talvez, e me fira a mãe com os filhos.

12 E tu disseste: Eu te farei bem, e tornarei tua descendência como a areia do mar, que não se pode contar de tão numerosa.

13 E dormiu ali aquela noite, e tomou do que lhe veio à mão um presente para seu irmão Esaú.
