Genesis 26:1-3

EasyEnglish Bible

Isaac and Abimelech

26 There was another famine in the land. This had happened before, when Abraham was alive. Now Isaac went to Gerar to visit Abimelech, the king of the Philistines. ² The Lord appeared to Isaac. He said, ‘Do not go to Egypt. Instead, live in the land that I will show to you. ³ Stay in this land, and I will be with you. I will bless you. I will give these lands to you and your descendants. I made a strong promise to your father Abraham. I will make that promise become true.
