lesserot@Genesis:20:1 @ And Abraham journeyed from there toward the south country, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur and sojourned in Gerar.
lesserot@Genesis:20:2 @ And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister; and Abimelech the king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.
lesserot@Genesis:20:3 @ But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou shalt die for the sake of the woman whom thou hast taken; for she is a mans wife.
lesserot@Genesis:20:4 @ But Abimelech had not come near to her; and he said, Lord, wilt thou then slay also a righteous nation?
lesserot@Genesis:20:5 @ Said he not unto me, She is my sister? and she, even she herself, said, He is my brother; in the integrity of my heart and the innocency of my hands have I done this.
lesserot@Genesis:20:6 @ And God said unto him in the dream, Yea, I also well know that thou hast done this in the integrity of thy heart; therefore did I also withhold thee from sinning against me; for this cause I suffered thee not to touch her.
lesserot@Genesis:20:7 @ And now restore the mans wife, for he is a prophet, and he will pray for thee, that thou mayest live; and if thou restore her not, know thou, that thou shalt surety die, thou and all that are thine.
lesserot@Genesis:20:8 @ And Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their hearing; and the men were greatly afraid.
lesserot@Genesis:20:9 @ Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him, What hast thou done unto us? and in what have I offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? deeds that ought not to be done thou hast done unto me.
lesserot@Genesis:20:11 @ And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely there is no fear of God in this place, and they will slay me for the sake of my wife.
lesserot@Genesis:20:12 @ And yet indeed she is my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
lesserot@Genesis:20:13 @ And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my fathers house, that I said unto her, This is thy kindness which thou shalt show unto me; at every place whither we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.
lesserot@Genesis:20:14 @ And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and womenservants, and gave them unto Abraham, and restored to him Sarah his wife.
lesserot@Genesis:20:15 @ And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it is pleasing in thy eyes.
lesserot@Genesis:20:16 @ And unto Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver: behold, this is to thee a covering of the eyes unto all that are with thee; and with all others thou canst thus justify thyself.
lesserot@Genesis:20:17 @ And Abraham prayed unto God; and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants, so that they could bear children.
lesserot@Genesis:20:18 @ For the Lord had fast closed up every womb of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abrahams wife.
