Genesis 12:10-16

10Now there was a famine in the land; and Abram went down into Egypt to live temporarily, for the famine in the land was oppressive and severe.

11And when he was about to enter Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife, “Listen: I know that you are a beautiful woman;

12so when the Egyptians see you, they will say, ‘This is his wife’; and they will kill me [to acquire you], but they will let you live.

13Please tell them that you are my sister so that things will go well for me for your sake, and my life will be spared because of you.”

14And when Abram entered Egypt, the Egyptians saw that Sarai was very beautiful.

15Pharaoh’s princes (officials) also saw her and praised her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken [for the purpose of marriage] into Pharaoh’s house (harem).

16Therefore Pharaoh treated Abram well for her sake; he acquired sheep, oxen, male and female donkeys, male and female servants, and camels.
