H85
Abraham
H5265
traveled
H776
from there toward the land
H5045
of the South,
H3427
and lived
H6946
between Kadesh
H7793
and Shur.
H1481
He lived as a foreigner
H1642
in Gerar.
2
H85
Abraham
H559
said
H413
about
H8283
Sarah
H802
his wife,
H269
"She is my sister."
H40
Abimelech
H4428
king
H1642
of Gerar
H7971
sent,
H3947
and took
H8283
Sarah.
3
H430
But God
H935
came
H40
to Abimelech
H2472
in a dream
H3915
of the night,
H559
and said
H4191
to him, "Behold, you are a dead man,
H802
because of the woman
H3947
whom you have taken.
H1167
For she is a man's
H1166
wife."
4
H40
Now Abimelech
H7126
had not come near
H559
her. He said,
H136
"Lord,
H2026
will you kill
H6662
even a righteous
H1471
nation?
5
H559
Didn't he tell
H1931
me, ‘She
H269
is my sister?'
H1931
She,
H1571
even
H1931
she
H559
herself, said,
H251
‘He is my brother.'
H8537
In the integrity
H3824
of my heart
H5356
and the innocence
H3709
of my hands
H6213
have I done this."
6
H430
God
H559
said
H2472
to him in the dream,
H1571
"Yes,
H3045
I know
H8537
that in the integrity
H3824
of your heart
H6213
you have done
H2820
this, and I also withheld
H2398
you from sinning
H5414
against me. Therefore I didn't allow
H5060
you to touch her.
7
H7725
Now therefore, restore
H376
the man's
H802
wife.
H5030
For he is a prophet,
H6419
and he will pray
H1157
for you,
H2421
and you will live.
H7725
If you don't restore
H3045
her, know
H4191
for sure
H4191
that you will die, you, and all who are yours."
8
H40
Abimelech
H7925
rose early
H1242
in the morning,
H7121
and called
H5650
all his servants,
H1696
and told
H1697
all these things
H241
in their ear.
H582
The men
H3966
were very
H3372
scared.
9
H40
Then Abimelech
H7121
called
H85
Abraham,
H559
and said
H6213
to him, "What have you done
H2398
to us? How have I sinned against
H935
you, that you have brought
H4467
on me and on my kingdom
H1419
a great
H2401
sin?
H6213
You have done
H4639
deeds
H6213
to me that ought not to be done!"
10
H40
Abimelech
H559
said
H85
to Abraham,
H4100
"What
H7200
did you
H6213
see, that you have done
H1697
this thing?"
11
H85
Abraham
H559
said,
H559
"Because I thought,
H7535
‘Surely
H3374
the fear
H430
of God
H4725
is not in this place.
H2026
They will kill me
H802
for my wife's
H1697
sake.'
12
H546
Besides, she is indeed
H269
my sister,
H1323
the daughter
H1
of my father,
H1323
but not the daughter
H517
of my mother;
H802
and she became my wife.
13
H430
It happened, when God
H8582
caused me to wander
H1
from my father's
H1004
house,
H559
that I said
H2617
to her, ‘This is your kindness
H6213
which you shall show
H4725
to me. Everywhere
H935
that we go,
H559
say
H251
of me, "He is my brother."'"
14
H40
Abimelech
H3947
took
H6629
sheep
H1241
and cattle,
H5650
male servants
H8198
and female servants,
H5414
and gave
H85
them to Abraham,
H7725
and restored
H8283
Sarah,
H802
his wife, to him.
15
H40
Abimelech
H559
said,
H776
"Behold, my land
H6440
is before you.
H3427
Dwell
H2896
where it pleases you."
16
H8283
To Sarah
H559
he said,
H5414
"Behold, I have given
H251
your brother
H505
a thousand
H3701
pieces of silver.
H3682
Behold, it is for you a covering
H5869
of the eyes
H3198
to all that are with you. In front of all you are vindicated."
