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