10Now there was 1a famineH7458 in the landH776; so AbramH87 wentH3381 downH3381 to EgyptH4714 to liveH1481 thereH8033 forH1481 aH1481 timeH1481, becauseH3588 the famineH7458 was 2severeH3515 in the landH776.
11It cameH1961 aboutH1961, whenH3512 he 3was approachingH7126H935 EgyptH4714, that he saidH559 to his wifeH802 SaraiH8297, “SeeH2009 nowH4994, I knowH3045 that you are a 45beautifulH3303 womanH802;
126and whenH3588 the EgyptiansH4713 seeH7200 you, they will sayH559, ‘ThisH2088 is his wifeH802’; and they will killH2026 me, but they will let you liveH2421.
13PleaseH4994 sayH559 that you are 7my sisterH269 soH4616 thatH4616 it may goH3190 wellH3190 for me becauseH5668 of you, and that 89I may liveH2421 on accountH1558 of you.”
