1 Later on, a famine swept through the land. This famine was different from the previous famine that had occurred earlier, during Abraham's lifetime. So Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Philistines, at Gerar. 2 That's when the LORD appeared to Isaac. |You are not to go down to Egypt,| he said. |Instead, you are to settle down in an area within this land where I'll tell you. 3 Remain in this land, and I'll be with and bless you by giving all these lands to you and to your descendants in fulfillment of my solemn promise that I made to your father Abraham.
