Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.	And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:	And the men of the place asked [him] of his wife; and he 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.
