Genesis 26:8-14 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

8. And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time that Abimelech, king of the Philistines, looking out a window, saw Isaac sporting with Rebekah, his wife.

9. And Abimelech called Isaac and said, Behold, of a surety she is thy wife; and how didst thou say, She is my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I die because of her.

10. And Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done unto us? One of the people might easily have slept with thy wife, and thou should have brought the sin upon us.

11. Then Abimelech charged all the people, saying, He that touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.

12. Then Isaac sowed in that land and received in the same year one hundred-fold, and the Lord blessed him.

13. And the man waxed great and went forward and grew until he became very great,

14. for he had possession of flocks, possession of herds, great store of servants, and the Philistines envied him.
