7 And the men of the place asked him of his wife, and he said, She is my sister: for he [a]feared to say, she is my wife, lest, said he, the men of the place should kill me, because of Rebekah, for she was beautiful to the eye.
8 So after he had been there a long time, Abimelech King of the Philistines looked out at a window, and lo, he saw Isaac [b]sporting with Rebekah his wife.
