'Spared' in the Bible

Please say you’re my sister so it will go well for me because of you, and my life will be spared on your account.”

Then God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know you did this in the integrity of your heart, for it was I who kept you back and spared you from sinning against Me; therefore I did not give you an opportunity to touch her.

Jacob would later call that place Peniel, because "I saw God face to face, but my life was spared."
