Genesis 26:8-10

Living Bible

⁸ But sometime later, King Abimelech, king of the Philistines, looked out of a window and saw Isaac and Rebekah making love.

⁹ Abimelech called for Isaac and exclaimed, “She is your wife! Why did you say she is your sister?”

“Because I was afraid I would be murdered,” Isaac replied. “I thought someone would kill me to get her from me.”

¹⁰ “How could you treat us this way?” Abimelech exclaimed. “Someone might carelessly have raped her, and we would be doomed.”
