And AbrahamH85 journeyedH5265 from thereH8033 toward the southH5045 country,H776 and dwelledH3427 betweenH996 KadeshH6946 and Shur,H7793 and sojournedH1481 in Gerar.H1642
2
And AbrahamH85 saidH559 of SarahH8283 his wife,H802 She is my sister:H269 and AbimelechH40 kingH4428 of GerarH1642 sent,H7971 and tookH3947 Sarah.H8283
3
But GodH430 cameH935 to AbimelechH40 in a dreamH2472 by night,H3915 and saidH559 to him, Behold,H2009 you are but a deadH4191 man, for the womanH802 whichH834 you have taken;H3947 for she is a man'sH1167 wife.H1166
4
But AbimelechH40 had not comeH7126 nearH7126 her: and he said,H559 LORD,H136 will you slayH2026 alsoH1571 a righteousH6662 nation?H1471
5
SaidH559 he not to me, She is my sister?H269 and she, evenH1571 she herself said,H559 He is my brother:H251 in the integrityH8537 of my heartH3824 and innocenceH5356 of my handsH3709 have I doneH6213 this.H2063
6
And GodH430 saidH559 to him in a dream,H2472 Yes,H1571 I knowH3045 that you didH6213 thisH2063 in the integrityH8537 of your heart;H3824 for I alsoH1571 withheldH2820 you from sinningH2398 against me: thereforeH5921 H3651 sufferedH5414 I you not to touchH5060 her.
7
NowH6258 therefore restoreH7725 the manH376 his wife;H802 for he is a prophet,H5030 and he shall prayH6419 for you, and you shall live:H2421 and ifH518 you restoreH7725 her not, knowH3045 you that you shall surelyH3588 die,H4191 you, and allH3605 that are yours.
8
Therefore AbimelechH40 roseH7925 earlyH7925 in the morning,H1242 and calledH7121 allH3605 his servants,H5650 and toldH1696 allH3605 theseH428 thingsH1697 in their ears:H241 and the menH582 were soreH3966 afraid.H3372
9
Then AbimelechH40 calledH7121 Abraham,H85 and saidH559 to him, WhatH4100 have you doneH6213 to us? and whatH4100 have I offendedH2398 you, that you have broughtH935 onH5921 me and onH5921 my kingdomH4467 a greatH1419 sin?H2401 you have doneH6213 deedsH4639 to me that ought not to be done.H6213
10
And AbimelechH40 saidH559 to Abraham,H85 WhatH4100 sawH7200 you, that you have doneH6213 thisH2088 thing?H1697
11
And AbrahamH85 said,H559 BecauseH3588 I thought,H559 SurelyH7535 the fearH3374 of GodH430 is not in thisH2088 place;H4725 and they will slayH2026 me for my wife'sH802 sake.H1697
12
And yetH1571 indeedH546 she is my sister;H269 she is the daughterH1323 of my father,H1 but not the daughterH1323 of my mother;H517 and she becameH1961 my wife.H802
13
And it cameH1961 to pass, whenH834 GodH430 caused me to wanderH8582 from my father'sH1 house,H1004 that I saidH559 to her, ThisH2088 is your kindnessH2617 whichH834 you shall showH6213 to me; atH413 everyH3605 placeH4725 whereH834 H8033 we shall come,H935 sayH559 of me, He is my brother.H251
14
And AbimelechH40 tookH3947 sheep,H6629 and oxen,H1241 and menservants,H5650 and womenservants,H8198 and gaveH5414 them to Abraham,H85 and restoredH7725 him SarahH8283 his wife.H802
15
And AbimelechH40 said,H559 Behold,H2009 my landH776 is beforeH6440 you: dwellH3427 where it pleasesH2896 H5869 you.
16
And to SarahH8283 he said,H559 Behold,H2009 I have givenH5414 your brotherH251 a thousandH505 pieces of silver:H3701 behold,H2009 he is to you a coveringH3682 of the eyes,H5869 to allH3605 that are with you, and with allH3605 other: thus she was reproved.H3198
17
So AbrahamH85 prayedH6419 to God:H430 and GodH430 healedH7495 Abimelech,H40 and his wife,H802 and his maidservants;H519 and they boreH3205 children.
18
For the LORDH3068 had fast closedH6113 up allH3605 the wombsH7358 of the houseH1004 of Abimelech,H40 becauseH5921 H1697 of SarahH8283 Abraham'sH85 wife.H802
