Genesis 20

CLV(i) 1 And journeying thence is Abraham to the south-rim. And dwelling is he between Kadesh and Shur, and is sojourning in Gerar. 2 And saying is Abraham concerning Sarah, his wife, "My sister is she,for he feared to say, "My wife is she,lest he be killed by the men of the city because of her. And sending is Abimelech, king of Gerar, and taking Sarah. 3 And coming is the Elohim to Abimelech in a dream in the night, and is saying to him, "Behold yourself dying on account of the woman whom you take, when she is possessed by a possessor. 4 And Abimelech comes not near to her. And saying is he, "Yahweh, a nation, moreover, unknowing and just, are you killing? 5 Said not he to me, `My sister is she'? And she, moreover, said, `My brother is he.' In the sincerity of my heart and in the innocency of my palms, I did this. 6 And saying is the Elohim to him in the dream, "Moreover, I know that, in the sincerity of your heart you did this, and I, moreover, am keeping you back from sinning against Me.

And should you not restore her, know that you shall die, yea, die, you and all who are yours. 8 And early is Abimelech rising in the morning, and calling is he all his servants, and is speaking all these words in their ears.

I gave a thousand silverlings to your brother. Behold! It is for you a covering of the eyes and for all who are with you. All is being corrected also. 17 And praying is Abraham to the Elohim and healing is the Elohim Abimelech and his wife and his maidservants, and they are bearing, 18 for Yahweh restrains, yea restrains all the wombs of the house of Abimelech over the matter of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
