And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.”
-
Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand.
-
He named him Noah and said, “He will comfort us in the labor and painful toil of our hands caused by the ground the Lord has cursed.”
-
But the dove could find nowhere to perch because there was water over all the surface of the earth; so it returned to Noah in the ark. He reached out his hand and took the dove and brought it back to himself in the ark.
-
The fear and dread of you will fall on all the beasts of the earth, and on all the birds in the sky, on every creature that moves along the ground, and on all the fish in the sea; they are given into your hands.
-
And praise be to God Most High, who delivered your enemies into your hand.” Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything.
-
But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “With raised hand I have sworn an oath to the Lord, God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,
-
“Your slave is in your hands,” Abram said. “Do with her whatever you think best.” Then Sarai mistreated Hagar; so she fled from her.
-
He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone and everyone’s hand against him, and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers.”
-
When he hesitated, the men grasped his hand and the hands of his wife and of his two daughters and led them safely out of the city, for the Lord was merciful to them.
-
Did he not say to me, ‘She is my sister,’ and didn’t she also say, ‘He is my brother’? I have done this with a clear conscience and clean hands.”
-
Lift the boy up and take him by the hand, for I will make him into a great nation.”
-
He replied, “Accept these seven lambs from my hand as a witness that I dug this well.”
-
Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.
-
“Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.”
-
He said to the senior servant in his household, the one in charge of all that he had, “Put your hand under my thigh.
-
So the servant put his hand under the thigh of his master Abraham and swore an oath to him concerning this matter.
-
“Drink, my lord,” she said, and quickly lowered the jar to her hands and gave him a drink.
-
After this, his brother came out, with his hand grasping Esau’s heel; so he was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when Rebekah gave birth to them.
-
She also covered his hands and the smooth part of his neck with the goatskins.
-
Then she handed to her son Jacob the tasty food and the bread she had made.
-
Jacob went close to his father Isaac, who touched him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
-
He did not recognize him, for his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he proceeded to bless him.
-
If the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been with me, you would surely have sent me away empty-handed. But God has seen my hardship and the toil of my hands, and last night he rebuked you.”
-
Save me, I pray, from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am afraid he will come and attack me, and also the mothers with their children.
