Genesis 20:3

וַ יָּבֹא אֶלֹהִים אֶל אֲבִימֶלֶךְ בַּ חֲלֹום הַ לָּיְלָה וַ יֹּאמֶר לֹו הִנְּךָ מֵת עַל הָ אִשָּׁה אֲשֶׁר לָקַחְתָּ וְ הִוא בְּעֻלַת בָּעַל
And elohim is coming in toward Father-King in the Bonded-one of the Night-ward, and is saying to-him,699 `Behold-yourself700 is he-who-dies upon the Woman whom you have taken, and himself is she-who-is-owned of an owner.`701
700

An unusual instance of behold as it has a second-person singular suffix – behold you. This occurs only here and in Deuteronomy 31:16.
