Genesis 20:8-13

8And AbimelechH40 roseH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and calledH7121 all his servantsH5650, and spokeH1696 all these wordsH1697 in their earsH241; and the menH376 were greatly afraidH3372.

9And AbimelechH40 calledH7121 AbrahamH85 and saidH559 to him, What hast thou done to us? And in what have I sinnedH2398 against thee, that thou hast broughtH935 on me, and on my kingdomH4467, a greatH1419 sinH2398? Thou hast done to me deedsH4639 that ought not to be done.

10And AbimelechH40 saidH559 to AbrahamH85, What hast thou seenH7200 that thou hast done this?

11And AbrahamH85 saidH559, Because I saidH559, Surely the fearH3374 of 1GodH430 is not in this placeH4725, and they will killH2026 me for my wife's sake.

12But she is alsoH1571 truly my sisterH269, the daughterH1323 of my fatherH1, but not the daughterH1323 of my motherH517; and she becameH1961 my wifeH802.

13And it cameH935 to pass when 2GodH430 caused me to wanderH8582 from my father's houseH1004, that I saidH559 to her, Let this beH1961 thy kindness which thou shalt shew to me: at every placeH4725 whither we shall comeH935, sayH559 of me, He is my brotherH251.
