But God didn’t allow anyone to treat them badly. To keep them safe, he gave a command to kings.

Yet he did not let anyone oppress them. He warned kings on their behalf:

When they set out, a terror from God came over the cities around them, and they did not pursue Jacob’s sons.

But God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream at night.“ Watch yourself!” God warned him.“ Don’t say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.”When Laban overtook Jacob, Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country, and Laban and his relatives also pitched their tents in the hill country of Gilead.Laban said to Jacob,“ What have you done? You have deceived me and taken my daughters away like prisoners of war!Why did you secretly flee from me, deceive me, and not tell me? I would have sent you away with joy and singing, with tambourines and lyres,but you didn’t even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters. You have acted foolishly.I could do you great harm, but last night the God of your father said to me,‘ Watch yourself! Don’t say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.’

Tell him: The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to tell you: Let my people go, so that they may worship me in the wilderness. But so far you have not listened.This is what the LORD says: Here is how you will know that I am the LORD. Watch. I am about to strike the water in the Nile with the staff in my hand, and it will turn to blood.

He had flocks of sheep, herds of cattle, and many slaves, and the Philistines were envious of him.Philistines stopped up all the wells that his father’s servants had dug in the days of his father Abraham, filling them with dirt.And Abimelech said to Isaac,“ Leave us, for you are much too powerful for us.”So Isaac left there, camped in the Gerar Valley, and lived there.Isaac reopened the wells that had been dug in the days of his father Abraham and that the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham died. He gave them the same names his father had given them.Then Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and found a well of spring water there.But the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac’s herdsmen and said,“ The water is ours!” So he named the well Esek because they argued with him.Then they dug another well and quarreled over that one also, so he named it Sitnah.He moved from there and dug another, and they did not quarrel over it. He named it Rehoboth and said,“ For now the LORD has made space for us, and we will be fruitful in the land.”From there he went up to Beer-sheba,and the LORD appeared to him that night and said,“ I am the God of your father Abraham. Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I will bless you and multiply your offspring because of my servant Abraham.”So he built an altar there, called on the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there. Isaac’s servants also dug a well there.Now Abimelech came to him from Gerar with Ahuzzath his adviser and Phicol the commander of his army.Isaac said to them,“ Why have you come to me? You hated me and sent me away from you.”They replied,“ We have clearly seen how the LORD has been with you. We think there should be an oath between two parties— between us and you. Let us make a covenant with you:You will not harm us, just as we have not harmed you but have done only what was good to you, sending you away in peace. You are now blessed by the LORD.”So he prepared a banquet for them, and they ate and drank.They got up early in the morning and swore an oath to each other. Isaac sent them on their way, and they left him in peace.On that same day Isaac’s servants came to tell him about the well they had dug, saying to him,“ We have found water!”He called it Sheba. Therefore the name of the city is still Beer-sheba today.

From there Abraham traveled to the region of the Negev and settled between Kadesh and Shur. While he was staying in Gerar,Abraham said about his wife Sarah,“ She is my sister.” So King Abimelech of Gerar had Sarah brought to him.But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night and said to him,“ You are about to die because of the woman you have taken, for she is a married woman.”Now Abimelech had not approached her, so he said,“ Lord, would you destroy a nation even though it is innocent?Didn’t he himself say to me,‘ She is my sister’? And she herself said,‘ He is my brother.’ I did this with a clear conscience and clean hands.”Then God said to him in the dream,“ Yes, I know that you did this with a clear conscience. I have also kept you from sinning against me. Therefore I have not let you touch her.Now return the man’s wife, for he is a prophet, and he will pray for you and you will live. But if you do not return her, know that you will certainly die, you and all who are yours.”

When Abram entered Egypt, the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.Pharaoh’s officials saw her and praised her to Pharaoh, so the woman was taken to Pharaoh’s household.He treated Abram well because of her, and Abram acquired flocks and herds, male and female donkeys, male and female slaves, and camels.But the LORD struck Pharaoh and his household with severe plagues because of Abram’s wife, Sarai.
