went
unto

dwell
in the

tell
thee of:
strkjv@Genesis:26:3
@
Sojourn
in this
land

bless
thee; for unto thee, and unto thy

give
all
these
countries

perform
the
oath

sware
unto
Abraham

father

obeyed
my
voice

kept
my

Isaac
dwelt
in
Gerar
:
strkjv@Genesis:26:7

men
of the
place
asked
him of his
wife

said
, She is my
sister
: for he
feared
to
say
, She is my
wife
; lest, said he, the
men
of the
place
should
kill
me for
Rebekah
; because she was
fair
to look
upon

out

she is thy
wife

saidst
thou, She is my
sister

Isaac
said
unto him, Because I
said

die
for her.
strkjv@Genesis:26:10
@ And
Abimelech
said

guiltiness

man
waxed
great

great

possession

possession

Esek

strove
with him.

digged
another
well

removed
from thence, and
digged
another
