What happens when you lie in the Bible
It's an ugly scene, as Jimmy Akin points out:
This makes it unmistakable that Jacob is suffering the consequences of his own act of deception. He deceived his father, and now as a father, he is being deceived by his sons.
. . .
We cannot "do evil that good may come," and we cannot know what other, better things would have happened if we had done what we should have.
