Genesis 20
- 1 And Abraham journeyeth from thence toward the land of the south, and dwelleth between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourneth in Gerar;
- 2 and Abraham saith concerning Sarah his wife, `She is my sister;' and Abimelech king of Gerar sendeth and taketh Sarah.
-
3 And God cometh in unto Abimelech in a dream of the night, and saith to him, `Lo, thou
art a dead man, because of the woman whom thou hast taken--and she married to a husband.' - 4 And Abimelech hath not drawn near unto her, and he saith, `Lord, also a righteous nation dost thou slay?
-
5 hath not he himself said to me, She
is my sister! and she, even she herself, said, He is my brother; in the integrity of my heart, and in the innocency of my hands, I have done this.' - 6 And God saith unto him in the dream, `Yea, I--I have known that in the integrity of thy heart thou hast done this, and I withhold thee, even I, from sinning against Me, therefore I have not suffered thee to come against her;
-
7 and now send back the man's wife, for he
is inspired, and he doth pray for thee, and live thou; and if thou do not send back, know that dying thou dost die, thou, and all that thou hast.' - 8 And Abimelech riseth early in the morning, and calleth for all his servants, and speaketh all these words in their ears; and the men fear exceedingly;
- 9 and Abimelech calleth for Abraham, and saith to him, `What hast thou done to us? and what have I sinned against thee, that thou hast brought upon me, and upon my kingdom, a great sin? works which are not done thou hast done with me.'
- 10 Abimelech also saith unto Abraham, `What hast thou seen that thou hast done this thing?'
- 11 And Abraham saith, `Because I said, `Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they have slain me for the sake of my wife;
- 12 and also, truly she is my sister, daughter of my father, only not daughter of my mother, and she becometh my wife;
-
13 and it cometh to pass, when God hath caused me to wander from my father's house, that I say to her, This
is thy kindness which thou dost with me: at every place whither we come, say of me, He is my brother.' - 14 And Abimelech taketh sheep and oxen, and servants and handmaids, and giveth to Abraham, and sendeth back to him Sarah his wife;
-
15 and Abimelech saith, `Lo, my land
is before thee, where it is good in thine eyes, dwell;' - 16 and to Sarah he hath said, `Lo, I have given a thousand silverlings to thy brother; lo, it is to thee a covering of eyes, to all who are with thee;' and by all this she is reasoned with.
- 17 And Abraham prayeth unto God, and God healeth Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bear:
- 18 for Jehovah restraining had restrained every womb of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
