Genesis 26:10 in Context — Genesis 26
8 Comme son séjour se prolongeait, il arriva qu’Abimélec, roi des Philistins, regardant par la fenêtre, vit Isaac qui plaisantait avec Rebecca, sa femme.
9 Abimélec fit appeler Isaac, et dit: Certainement, c’est ta femme. Comment as-tu pu dire: C’est ma sœur? Isaac lui répondit: J’ai parlé ainsi, de peur de mourir à cause d’elle.
10 Et Abimélec dit: Qu’est-ce que tu nous as fait? Peu s’en est fallu que quelqu’un du peuple n’ait couché avec ta femme, et tu nous aurais rendus coupables.
11 Alors Abimélec fit cette ordonnance pour tout le peuple: Celui qui touchera à cet homme ou à sa femme sera mis à mort.
12 Isaac sema dans ce pays, et il recueillit cette année le centuple; car l’Éternel le bénit.
