rwbs@Genesis:20:1 @ And Abraham journeyed from there toward the south country, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned in Gerar.

rwbs@Genesis:20:2 @ And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She my sister: and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.

rwbs@Genesis:20:3 @ But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou a dead man, on account of the woman whom thou hast taken; for she a man’s wife. (note:)a man’s…: Hebrews. married to an husband(:note)

rwbs@Genesis:20:4 @ But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, Lord, wilt thou also slay a righteous nation?

rwbs@Genesis:20:5 @ Said he not to me, She my sister? and she, even she herself said, He my brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocency of my hands have I done this. (note:)integrity: or, simplicity, or, sincerity(:note)

rwbs@Genesis:20:6 @ And God said to him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore I allowed thee not to touch her.

rwbs@Genesis:20:7 @ Now therefore restore to the man wife; for he a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou shalt not restore, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that thine.

rwbs@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 greatly afraid.

rwbs@Genesis:20:9 @ Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, What hast thou done to us? and how have I offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds to me that ought not to be done.

rwbs@Genesis:20:10 @ And Abimelech said to Abraham, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?

rwbs@Genesis:20:11 @ And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife’s sake.

rwbs@Genesis:20:12 @ And yet indeed my sister; she the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.

rwbs@Genesis:20:13 @ And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said to her, This thy kindness which thou shalt show to me; at every place where we shall come, say of me, He my brother.

rwbs@Genesis:20:14 @ And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and male and female servants, and gave to Abraham, and restored to him Sarah his wife.

rwbs@Genesis:20:15 @ And Abimelech said, Behold, my land before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee. (note:)where…: Hebrews. as is good in thine eyes(:note)

rwbs@Genesis:20:16 @ And to Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand of silver: behold, he to thee a covering of the eyes, to all that with thee, and with all: thus she was reproved.

rwbs@Genesis:20:17 @ So Abraham prayed to God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bore.

rwbs@Genesis:20:18 @ For the LORD had closed fast all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham’s wife.
