Genesis 20:14-18

141Abimelech then took sheep and oxen and male and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored his wife Sarah to him.

15Abimelech said, “2Behold, my land is before you; 3settle wherever 4you please.”

16To Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your 5brother a thousand pieces of silver; behold, it is 6your vindication before all who are with you, and before all men you are cleared.”

177Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech and his wife and his maids, so that they bore children.

188For the Lord had closed fast all the wombs of the household of Abimelech because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
