Crôrincas/Chronicles 4:9-10

Jabez foi o homem mais respeitado de sua família. Sua mãe lhe deu o nome de Jabez, dizendo: “Com muitas dores o dei à luz”. Jabez orou ao Deus de Israel: “Ah, abençoa-me e aumenta as minhas terras! Que a tua mão esteja comigo, guardando-me de males e livrando-me de dores”. E Deus atendeu ao seu pedido.

Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.” Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.
