6 Isaac therefore dwelt in Gerar: 7 And when the men of that place asked him concerning his wife, he said it is my sister, for he feared to say, it is my wife: For (said he) I must take heed lest the men of this place kill me for Rebecca, because she was fair. 8 Now it came to pass when he had remained there many days, that Abimilech the king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and as he looked, Behold Isaac played with Rebecca his wife. 9 Wherefore Abimelech called Isaac and said, surely behold she is thy wife: how then saidest thou she is my sister? To whom Isaac said, because I said, I must take heed lest I dye for her. 10 Then said Abimelech, what is this that thou hast done unto us? It was not far off that one of this people had not lien by her, so thou haddest brought sin upon us.
