Genesis 26:9 - 11

Abimelech called Isaac, and said, "Behold, surely she is your wife. Why did you say, `She is my sister?'" Isaac said to him, "Because I said, `Lest I die because of her.'" Abimelech said, "What is this you have done to us? One of the people might easily have lain with your wife, and you would have brought guilt on us!" Abimelech commanded all the people, saying, "He who touches this man or his wife will surely be put to death."
