Genesis 20:3-6

3But 1GodH430 cameH935 to AbimelechH40 in a dreamH2472 by nightH3915, and saidH559 to him, Behold, thou art [but] a deadH4191 man, because of the womanH802 that thou hast takenH3947; for she is a man's wifeH802.

4But AbimelechH40 had not come near her. And he saidH559, LordH136, wilt thou alsoH1571 killH2026 a righteousH6662 nationH1471?

5Did he not sayH559 to me, She is my sisterH269? and she, even she saidH559, He is my brotherH251. In the integrityH8537 of my heartH3824 and in the innocency of my handsH3709 have I done this.

6And 2GodH430 saidH559 to him in a dreamH2472, I alsoH1571 knewH3045 that thou didst this in the integrityH8537 of thy heartH3824, and I, too, have withheldH2820 thee from sinningH2398 against me: thereforeH3651 have I not suffered thee to touchH5060 her.
