Genesis 26:7-9
7When the menH376 of the placeH4725 askedH7592 about his wifeH802, he saidH559, “1She is my sisterH269,” for he wasH3372 2afraidH3372 to sayH559, “my wifeH802,” thinking, “3the menH376 of the placeH4725 might killH2026 me onH5921 accountH5921 ofH5921 RebekahH7259, sinceH3588 she is 4beautifulH2896.”
8Now it cameH1961 aboutH1961, whenH3588 he had been thereH8033 a longH748 timeH3117, that AbimelechH40 kingH4428 of the PhilistinesH6430 lookedH8259 downH8259 throughH1157 a windowH2474, and sawH7200 them, and beholdH2009, IsaacH3327 was caressingH6711 his wifeH802 RebekahH7259.
9Then AbimelechH40 calledH7121 IsaacH3327 and saidH559, “BeholdH2009, she certainlyH389 is your wifeH802! So howH349 is it that you saidH559, ‘She is my sisterH269’?” And IsaacH3327 saidH559 to him, “BecauseH3588 I thoughtH559, ‘otherwiseH6435 I mightH6435 be killedH4191 onH5921 accountH5921 ofH5921 her.’”
