akjv@Genesis:20:1 @ And Abraham journeyed from there toward the south country, and dwelled between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned in Gerar.
akjv@Genesis:20:2 @ And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister: and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
akjv@Genesis:20:3 @ But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, you are but a dead man, for the woman which you have taken; for she is a man' wife.
akjv@Genesis:20:4 @ But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, LORD, will you slay also a righteous nation?
akjv@Genesis:20:5 @ Said he not to me, She is my sister? and she, even she herself said, He is my brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocence of my hands have I done this.
akjv@Genesis:20:6 @ And God said to him in a dream, Yes, I know that you did this in the integrity of your heart; for I also withheld you from sinning against me: therefore suffered I you not to touch her.
akjv@Genesis:20:7 @ Now therefore restore the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for you, and you shall live: and if you restore her not, know you that you shall surely die, you, and all that are yours.
akjv@Genesis:20:8 @ Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears: and the men were sore afraid.
akjv@Genesis:20:9 @ Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, What have you done to us? and what have I offended you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? you have done deeds to me that ought not to be done.
akjv@Genesis:20:10 @ And Abimelech said to Abraham, What saw you, that you have done this thing?
akjv@Genesis:20:11 @ And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife' sake.
akjv@Genesis:20:12 @ And yet indeed she is my sister; she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
akjv@Genesis:20:13 @ And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father' house, that I said to her, This is your kindness which you shall show to me; at every place where we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.
akjv@Genesis:20:14 @ And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and womenservants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
akjv@Genesis:20:15 @ And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before you: dwell where it pleases you.
akjv@Genesis:20:16 @ And to Sarah he said, Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver: behold, he is to you a covering of the eyes, to all that are with you, and with all other: thus she was reproved.
akjv@Genesis:20:17 @ So Abraham prayed to God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bore children.
akjv@Genesis:20:18 @ For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham' wife.
