H85
And Abraham
H5265
journeyed
[H8799]
H5045
from thence toward the south
H776
country
H3427
, and dwelled
[H8799]
H6946
between Kadesh
H7793
and Shur
H1481
, and sojourned
[H8799]
H1642
in Gerar.
2
H85
And Abraham
H559
said
[H8799]
H413
of
H8283
Sarah
H802
his wife
H269
, She is my sister
H40
: and Abimelech
H4428
king
H1642
of Gerar
H7971
sent
[H8799]
H3947
, and took
[H8799]
H8283
Sarah.
3
H430
But God
H935
came
[H8799]
H40
to Abimelech
H2472
in a dream
H3915
by night
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H4191
to him, Behold, thou art but a dead man
[H8801]
H802
, for the woman
H3947
which thou hast taken
[H8804]
H1167
; for she is a man's
H1166
wife
[H8803]
.
4
H40
But Abimelech
H7126
had not come near
[H8804]
H559
her: and he said
[H8799]
H136
, Lord
H2026
, wilt thou slay
[H8799]
H6662
also a righteous
H1471
nation?
5
H559
Said
[H8804]
H1931
he not unto me, She
H269
is my sister
H1931
? and she
H1571
, even
H1931
she
H559
herself said
[H8804]
H251
, He is my brother
H8537
: in the integrity
H3824
of my heart
H5356
and innocency
H3709
of my hands
H6213
have I done
[H8804]
this.
6
H430
And God
H559
said
[H8799]
H2472
unto him in a dream
H1571
, Yea
H3045
, I know
[H8804]
H6213
that thou didst
[H8804]
H8537
this in the integrity
H3824
of thy heart
H2820
; for I also withheld
[H8799]
H2398
thee from sinning
[H8800]
H5414
against me: therefore suffered
[H8804]
H5060
I thee not to touch
[H8800]
her.
7
H7725
Now therefore restore
[H8685]
H376
the man
H802
his wife
H5030
; for he is a prophet
H6419
, and he shall pray
[H8691]
H1157
for thee
H2421
, and thou shalt live
[H8798]
H7725
: and if thou restore
[H8688]
H3045
her not, know
[H8798]
H4191
thou that thou shalt surely
[H8800]
H4191
die
[H8799]
, thou, and all that are thine.
8
H40
Therefore Abimelech
H7925
rose early
[H8686]
H1242
in the morning
H7121
, and called
[H8799]
H5650
all his servants
H1696
, and told
[H8762]
H1697
all these things
H241
in their ears
H582
: and the men
H3966
were sore
H3372
afraid
[H8799]
.
9
H40
Then Abimelech
H7121
called
[H8799]
H85
Abraham
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H6213
unto him, What hast thou done
[H8804]
H2398
unto us? and what have I offended
[H8804]
H935
thee, that thou hast brought
[H8689]
H4467
on me and on my kingdom
H1419
a great
H2401
sin
H6213
? thou hast done
[H8804]
H4639
deeds
H6213
unto me that ought not to be done
[H8735]
.
10
H40
And Abimelech
H559
said
[H8799]
H85
unto Abraham
H4100
, What
H7200
sawest thou
[H8804]
H6213
, that thou hast done
[H8804]
H1697
this thing?
11
H85
And Abraham
H559
said
[H8799]
H559
, Because I thought
[H8804]
H7535
, Surely
H3374
the fear
H430
of God
H4725
is not in this place
H2026
; and they will slay me
[H8804]
H802
for my wife's
H1697
sake.
12
H546
And yet indeed
H269
she is my sister
H1323
; she is the daughter
H1
of my father
H1323
, but not the daughter
H517
of my mother
H802
; and she became my wife.
13
H430
And it came to pass, when God
H8582
caused me to wander
[H8689]
H1
from my father's
H1004
house
H559
, that I said
[H8799]
H2617
unto her, This is thy kindness
H6213
which thou shalt shew
[H8799]
H4725
unto me; at every place
H935
whither we shall come
[H8799]
H559
, say
[H8798]
H251
of me, He is my brother.
14
H40
And Abimelech
H3947
took
[H8799]
H6629
sheep
H1241
, and oxen
H5650
, and menservants
H8198
, and womenservants
H5414
, and gave
[H8799]
H85
them unto Abraham
H7725
, and restored
[H8686]
H8283
him Sarah
H802
his wife.
15
H40
And Abimelech
H559
said
[H8799]
H776
, Behold, my land
H6440
is before thee
H3427
: dwell
[H8798]
H2896
where it pleaseth
H5869
thee.
16
H8283
And unto Sarah
H559
he said
[H8804]
H5414
, Behold, I have given
[H8804]
H251
thy brother
H505
a thousand
H3701
pieces of silver
H3682
: behold, he is to thee a covering
H5869
of the eyes
H3198
, unto all that are with thee, and with all other : thus she was reproved
[H8737]
.
