Genesis 20:9-16
9Then AbimelechH40 calledH7121 AbrahamH85, and saidH559 to him, What hast thou doneH6213 to us? and how have I offendedH2398 thee, that thou hast broughtH935 on me and on my kingdomH4467 a greatH1419 sinH2401? thou hast doneH6213 deedsH4639 to me that ought not to be doneH6213. 10And AbimelechH40 saidH559 to AbrahamH85, WhatH4100 sawest thouH7200, that thou hast doneH6213 this thingH1697? 11And AbrahamH85 saidH559, Because I thoughtH559, SurelyH7535 the fearH3374 of GodH430 is not in this placeH4725; and they will slay meH2026 for my wife’sH802 sakeH1697. 12And yet indeedH546 she is my sisterH269; she is the daughterH1323 of my fatherH1, but not the daughterH1323 of my motherH517; and she became my wifeH802. 13And it came to pass, when GodH430 caused me to wanderH8582 from my father’sH1 houseH1004, that I saidH559 to her, This is thy kindnessH2617 which thou shalt showH6213 to me; at every placeH4725 where we shall comeH935, sayH559 of me, He is my brotherH251.
14And AbimelechH40 tookH3947 sheepH6629, and oxenH1241, and maleH5650 and female servantsH8198, and gaveH5414 them to AbrahamH85, and restoredH7725 to him SarahH8283 his wifeH802. 15And AbimelechH40 saidH559, Behold, my landH776 is before theeH6440: dwellH3427 where it pleasethH2896H5869 thee.1 16And to SarahH8283 he saidH559, Behold, I have givenH5414 thy brotherH251 a thousandH505 pieces of silverH3701: behold, he is to thee a coveringH3682 of the eyesH5869, to all that are with thee, and with all other : thus she was reprovedH3198.
