Genesis 12:14-20
14When Abram entered Egypt, the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.
15Pharaoh’s officials saw her and praised her to Pharaoh, so the woman was taken to Pharaoh’s household.
16He treated Abram well because of her, and Abram acquired flocks and herds, male and female donkeys, male and female slaves, and camels.
17But the Lord struck Pharaoh and his household with severe plagues because of Abram’s wife, Sarai.
18So Pharaoh sent for Abram and said, “What have you done to me? Why didn’t you tell me she was your wife?
19Why did you say, ‘She’s my sister,’ so that I took her as my wife? Now, here is your wife. Take her and go!”
20Then Pharaoh gave his men orders about him, and they sent him away with his wife and all he had.
