Genesis 26:27-29

International Standard Version

²⁷ “Why have you come to see me,” Isaac asked them, “since you hate me so much that you sent me away from you?”

²⁸ “We’ve seen that the Lord is with you,” they responded, “so we’re proposing an agreement^[a] between us—between us and you. Allow us to make a treaty with you ²⁹ by which you’ll agree not to do us any harm, just as we haven’t harmed^[b] you, since we’ve done nothing but good for you after we sent you away in peace. As a result, you’ve been tremendously blessed by the Lord.”
