1 Chronicles 4:10
And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.
KJV
Invocavit vero Jabes Deum Israël, dicens : Si benedicens benedixeris mihi, et dilataveris terminos meos, et fuerit manus tua mecum, et feceris me a malitia non opprimi. Et præstitit Deus quæ precatus est.
Vulgate
καὶ ἐπεκαλέσατο Ἰγαβὴς τὸν θεὸν Ἰσραὴλ λέγων Ἐὰν εὐλογῶν εὐλογήσῃς με, καὶ πληθύνῃς τὰ ὅριά μου, καὶ ἦν ἡ χείρ σου μετ’ ἐμοῦ, καὶ ποιήσῃς γνῶσιν τοῦ μὴ ταπεινῶσαί με. καὶ ἐπήγαγεν ὁ θεὸς πάντα ὅσα ᾐτήσατο.
LXX
And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my border, and that thy hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it be not to my sorrow! And God granted him that which he requested.
