And there was a famineH7458 in the landH776, besideH905 the firstH7223 famineH7458 that was in the daysH3117 of AbrahamH85. And IsaacH3327 wentH3212 unto AbimelechH40 kingH4428 of the PhilistinesH6430 unto GerarH1642.
And the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 unto him, and saidH559, Go not downH3381 into EgyptH4714; dwellH7931 in the landH776 which I shall tellH559 thee of:
SojournH1481 in this landH776, and I will be with thee, and will blessH1288 thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seedH2233, I will giveH5414 all theseH411 countriesH776, and I will performH6965 the oathH7621 which I swareH7650 unto AbrahamH85 thy fatherH1;
And I will makeH7235 thy seedH2233 to multiplyH7235 as the starsH3556 of heavenH8064, and will giveH5414 unto thy seedH2233 all theseH411 countriesH776; and in thy seedH2233 shall all the nationsH1471 of the earthH776 be blessedH1288;
BecauseH6118 that AbrahamH85 obeyedH8085 my voiceH6963, and keptH8104 my chargeH4931, my commandmentsH4687, my statutesH2708, and my lawsH8451.
And IsaacH3327 dweltH3427 in GerarH1642:
And the menH582 of the placeH4725 askedH7592 him of his wifeH802; and he saidH559, She is my sisterH269: for he fearedH3372 to sayH559, She is my wifeH802; lest, said he, the menH582 of the placeH4725 should killH2026 me for RebekahH7259; because she was fairH2896 to look uponH4758.
And it came to pass, when he had been there a longH748 timeH3117, that AbimelechH40 kingH4428 of the PhilistinesH6430 looked outH8259 atH1157 a windowH2474, and sawH7200, and, behold, IsaacH3327 was sportingH6711 with RebekahH7259 his wifeH802.
And AbimelechH40 calledH7121 IsaacH3327, and saidH559, Behold, of a suretyH389 she is thy wifeH802: and how saidstH559 thou, She is my sisterH269? And IsaacH3327 saidH559 unto him, Because I saidH559, Lest I dieH4191 for her.
And AbimelechH40 saidH559, What is this thou hast doneH6213 unto us? oneH259 of the peopleH5971 might lightlyH4592 have lienH7901 with thy wifeH802, and thou shouldest have broughtH935 guiltinessH817 upon us.
And AbimelechH40 chargedH6680 all his peopleH5971, sayingH559, He that touchethH5060 this manH376 or his wifeH802 shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191.
Then IsaacH3327 sowedH2232 in that landH776, and receivedH4672 in the same yearH8141 an hundredfoldH3967+H8180: and the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 him. {received: Heb. found}
And the manH376 waxed greatH1431, and wentH3212 forwardH1980, and grewH1432 until he becameH1431 veryH3966 greatH1431: {went…: Heb. went going}
For he had possessionH4735 of flocksH6629, and possessionH4735 of herdsH1241, and great storeH7227 of servantsH5657: and the PhilistinesH6430 enviedH7065 him. {servants: or, husbandry}
For all the wellsH875 which his father'sH1 servantsH5650 had diggedH2658 in the daysH3117 of AbrahamH85 his fatherH1, the PhilistinesH6430 had stoppedH5640 them, and filledH4390 them with earthH6083.
And AbimelechH40 saidH559 unto IsaacH3327, GoH3212 from us; for thou art muchH3966 mightierH6105 than we.
And IsaacH3327 departedH3212 thence, and pitched his tentH2583 in the valleyH5158 of GerarH1642, and dweltH3427 thereH8033.
And IsaacH3327 diggedH2658 againH7725 the wellsH875 of waterH4325, which they had diggedH2658 in the daysH3117 of AbrahamH85 his fatherH1; for the PhilistinesH6430 had stoppedH5640 them afterH310 the deathH4194 of AbrahamH85: and he calledH7121 their namesH8034 after the namesH8034 by whichH834 his fatherH1 had calledH7121 them.
And Isaac'sH3327 servantsH5650 diggedH2658 in the valleyH5158, and foundH4672 there a wellH875 of springingH2416 waterH4325. {springing: Heb. living}
And the herdmenH7462 of GerarH1642 did striveH7378 with Isaac'sH3327 herdmenH7462, sayingH559, The waterH4325 is ours: and he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the wellH875 EsekH6230; because they stroveH6229 with him. {Esek: that is, Contention}
And they diggedH2658 anotherH312 wellH875, and stroveH7378 for that also: and he calledH7121 the name of itH8034 SitnahH7856. {Sitnah: that is, Hatred}
And he removedH6275 from thence, and diggedH2658 anotherH312 wellH875; and for that they stroveH7378 not: and he calledH7121 the name of itH8034 RehobothH7344; and he saidH559, For nowH6258 the LORDH3068 hath made roomH7337 for us, and we shall be fruitfulH6509 in the landH776. {Rehoboth: that is Room}
And he went upH5927 from thence to BeershebaH884.
And the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 unto him the same nightH3915, and saidH559, I am the GodH430 of AbrahamH85 thy fatherH1: fearH3372 not, for I am withH854 thee, and will blessH1288 thee, and multiplyH7235 thy seedH2233 for my servantH5650 Abraham'sH85 sake.
And he buildedH1129 an altarH4196 there, and calledH7121 upon the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, and pitchedH5186 his tentH168 there: and there Isaac'sH3327 servantsH5650 diggedH3738 a wellH875.
Then AbimelechH40 wentH1980 to him from GerarH1642, and AhuzzathH276 one of his friendsH4828, and PhicholH6369 the chief captainH8269 of his armyH6635.
And IsaacH3327 saidH559 unto them, WhereforeH4069 comeH935 ye to me, seeing ye hateH8130 me, and have sent me awayH7971 from you?
And they saidH559, We sawH7200 certainlyH7200 that the LORDH3068 was with thee: and we saidH559, Let there be now an oathH423 betwixtH996 us, even betwixtH996 us and thee, and let us makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with thee; {We saw…: Heb. Seeing we saw}
That thou wilt doH6213 us no hurtH7451, as we have not touchedH5060 thee, and as we have doneH6213 unto thee nothing butH7535 goodH2896, and have sent thee awayH7971 in peaceH7965: thou art nowH6258 the blessedH1288 of the LORDH3068. {That…: Heb. If thou shalt}
And he madeH6213 them a feastH4960, and they did eatH398 and drinkH8354.
And they rose up betimesH7925 in the morningH1242, and swareH7650 oneH376 to anotherH251: and IsaacH3327 sent them awayH7971, and they departedH3212 from him in peaceH7965.
And it came to pass the same dayH3117, that Isaac'sH3327 servantsH5650 cameH935, and toldH5046 him concerningH182 the wellH875 which they had diggedH2658, and saidH559 unto him, We have foundH4672 waterH4325.
And he calledH7121 it ShebahH7656: therefore the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 is BeershebaH884 unto this dayH3117. {Shebah: That is, an oath} {Beersheba: that is, the well of the oath}
And EsauH6215 was fortyH705 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he tookH3947 to wifeH802 JudithH3067 the daughterH1323 of BeeriH882 the HittiteH2850, and BashemathH1315 the daughterH1323 of ElonH356 the HittiteH2850:
Which were a griefH4786 of mindH7307 unto IsaacH3327 and to RebekahH7259. {a grief…: Heb. bitterness of spirit}
