Genesis 26:26-29

26Then 1AbimelechH40 cameH1980 to him from GerarH1642 2with his adviserH4828 AhuzzathH276, and PhicolH6369 the commanderH8269 of his armyH6635.

27IsaacH3327 saidH559 to them, “3WhyH4069 have you comeH935 to me, since you hateH8130 me and have sentH7971 me awayH7971 from you?”

28They saidH559, “We have seenH7200 plainlyH7200 4that the LordH3068 has beenH1961 with you; so we saidH559, ‘An oathH423 must nowH4994 be taken 5by us,’ that is, 6by you and us. So let us makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with you,

29that you will doH6213 us noH518 harmH7463, justH3512 asH3512 we have not touchedH5060 you 7and have doneH6213 to you nothingH7534 butH7534 goodH2896, and have sentH7971 you awayH7971 in peaceH7965. You are nowH6258 the 8blessedH1288 of the LordH3068.”
