Genesis 20

KJV

1  And Abraham⁸⁵ journeyed⁵²⁶⁵ from thence^{4480 8033} toward the south⁵⁰⁴⁵ country,⁷⁷⁶ and dwelled³⁴²⁷ between⁹⁹⁶ Kadesh⁶⁹⁴⁶ and Shur,⁷⁷⁹³ and sojourned¹⁴⁸¹ in Gerar.¹⁶⁴²

2  And Abraham⁸⁵ said⁵⁵⁹ of⁴¹³ Sarah⁸²⁸³ his wife,⁸⁰² She¹⁹³¹ is my sister:²⁶⁹ and Abimelech⁴⁰ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Gerar¹⁶⁴² sent,⁷⁹⁷¹ and took^{3947 853} Sarah.⁸²⁸³

3  But God⁴³⁰ came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ Abimelech⁴⁰ in a dream²⁴⁷² by night,³⁹¹⁵ and said⁵⁵⁹ to him, Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ thou art but a dead man,⁴¹⁹¹ for⁵⁹²¹ the woman⁸⁰² which⁸³⁴ thou hast taken;³⁹⁴⁷ for she¹⁹³¹ is a man's¹¹⁶⁷ wife.¹¹⁶⁶

4  But Abimelech⁴⁰ had not³⁸⁰⁸ come near^{7126 413} her: and he said,⁵⁵⁹ Lord,¹³⁶ wilt thou slay²⁰²⁶ also¹⁵⁷¹ a righteous⁶⁶⁶² nation?¹⁴⁷¹

5  Said⁵⁵⁹ he¹⁹³¹ not³⁸⁰⁸ unto me, She¹⁹³¹ is my sister?²⁶⁹ and she,¹⁹³¹ even¹⁵⁷¹ she herself¹⁹³¹ said,⁵⁵⁹ He¹⁹³¹ is my brother:²⁵¹ in the integrity⁸⁵³⁷ of my heart³⁸²⁴ and innocency⁵³⁵⁶ of my hands³⁷⁰⁹ have I done⁶²¹³ this.²⁰⁶³

6  And God⁴³⁰ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ him in a dream,²⁴⁷² Yea,¹⁵⁷¹ I⁵⁹⁵ know³⁰⁴⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ thou didst⁶²¹³ this²⁰⁶³ in the integrity⁸⁵³⁷ of thy heart;³⁸²⁴ for I⁵⁹⁵ also¹⁵⁷¹ withheld²⁸²⁰ thee from sinning^{4480 2398} against me: therefore^{5921 3651} suffered⁵⁴¹⁴ I thee not³⁸⁰⁸ to touch^{5060 413} her.

7  Now⁶²⁵⁸ therefore restore⁷⁷²⁵ the man³⁷⁶ his wife;⁸⁰² for³⁵⁸⁸ he¹⁹³¹ is a prophet,⁵⁰³⁰ and he shall pray⁶⁴¹⁹ for¹¹⁵⁷ thee, and thou shalt live:²⁴²¹ and if⁵¹⁸ thou restore⁷⁷²⁵ her not,³⁶⁹ know³⁰⁴⁵ thou that³⁵⁸⁸ thou shalt surely die,^{4191 4191} thou,⁸⁵⁹ and all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ are thine.

8  Therefore Abimelech⁴⁰ rose early⁷⁹²⁵ in the morning,¹²⁴² and called⁷¹²¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ his servants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ and told^{1696 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ these⁴²⁸ things¹⁶⁹⁷ in their ears:²⁴¹ and the men³⁷⁶ were sore afraid.^{3372 3966}

9  Then Abimelech⁴⁰ called⁷¹²¹ Abraham,⁸⁵ and said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, What⁴¹⁰⁰ hast thou done⁶²¹³ unto us? and what⁴¹⁰⁰ have I offended²³⁹⁸ thee, that³⁵⁸⁸ thou hast brought⁹³⁵ on⁵⁹²¹ me and on⁵⁹²¹ my kingdom⁴⁴⁶⁷ a great¹⁴¹⁹ sin?²⁴⁰¹ thou hast done⁶²¹³ deeds⁴⁶³⁹ unto⁵⁹⁷³ me that⁸³⁴ ought not³⁸⁰⁸ to be done.⁶²¹³

10  And Abimelech⁴⁰ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Abraham,⁸⁵ What⁴¹⁰⁰ sawest⁷²⁰⁰ thou, that³⁵⁸⁸ thou hast done^{6213 853} this²⁰⁸⁸ thing?¹⁶⁹⁷

11  And Abraham⁸⁵ said,⁵⁵⁹ Because³⁵⁸⁸ I thought,⁵⁵⁹ Surely⁷⁵³⁵ the fear³³⁷⁴ of God⁴³⁰ is not³⁶⁹ in this²⁰⁸⁸ place;⁴⁷²⁵ and they will slay²⁰²⁶ me for⁵⁹²¹ my wife's⁸⁰² sake.¹⁶⁹⁷

12  And yet¹⁵⁷¹ indeed⁵⁴⁶ she is my sister;²⁶⁹ she¹⁹³¹ is the daughter¹³²³ of my father,¹ but³⁸⁹ not³⁸⁰⁸ the daughter¹³²³ of my mother;⁵¹⁷ and she became¹⁹⁶¹ my wife.⁸⁰²

13  And it came to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ when⁸³⁴ God⁴³⁰ caused me to wander⁸⁵⁸² from my father's house,^{4480 1004 1} that I said⁵⁵⁹ unto her, This²⁰⁸⁸ is thy kindness²⁶¹⁷ which⁸³⁴ thou shalt show⁶²¹³ unto⁵⁹⁷³ me; at⁴¹³ every³⁶⁰⁵ place⁴⁷²⁵ whither^{834 8033} we shall come,⁹³⁵ say⁵⁵⁹ of me, He¹⁹³¹ is my brother.²⁵¹

14  And Abimelech⁴⁰ took³⁹⁴⁷ sheep,⁶⁶²⁹ and oxen,¹²⁴¹ and menservants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ and womenservants,⁸¹⁹⁸ and gave⁵⁴¹⁴ them unto Abraham,⁸⁵ and restored⁷⁷²⁵ him ⁸⁵³ Sarah⁸²⁸³ his wife.⁸⁰²

15  And Abimelech⁴⁰ said,⁵⁵⁹ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ my land⁷⁷⁶ is before⁶⁴⁴⁰ thee: dwell³⁴²⁷ where it pleaseth^{2896 5869} thee.

16  And unto Sarah⁸²⁸³ he said,⁵⁵⁹ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ I have given⁵⁴¹⁴ thy brother²⁵¹ a thousand⁵⁰⁵ pieces of silver:³⁷⁰¹ behold,²⁰⁰⁹ he¹⁹³¹ is to thee a covering³⁶⁸² of the eyes,⁵⁸⁶⁹ unto all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ are with⁸⁵⁴ thee, and with⁸⁵⁴ all³⁶⁰⁵ other: thus she was reproved.³¹⁹⁸

17  So Abraham⁸⁵ prayed⁶⁴¹⁹ unto⁴¹³ God:⁴³⁰ and God⁴³⁰ healed^{7495 853} Abimelech,⁴⁰ and his wife,⁸⁰² and his maidservants;⁵¹⁹ and they bore³²⁰⁵ children.

18  For³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ had fast closed up^{6113 6113 1157} all³⁶⁰⁵ the wombs⁷³⁵⁸ of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Abimelech,⁴⁰ because^{5921 1697} of Sarah⁸²⁸³ Abraham's⁸⁵ wife.⁸⁰²

1 καὶ ἐκίνησεν ἐκεῖθεν Αβρααμ εἰς γῆν πρὸς λίβα καὶ ᾤκησεν ἀνὰ μέσον Καδης καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Σουρ καὶ παρῴκησεν ἐν Γεραροις

2 εἶπεν δὲ Αβρααμ περὶ Σαρρας τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἀδελφή μού ἐστιν ἐφοβήθη γὰρ εἰπεῖν ὅτι γυνή μού ἐστιν μήποτε ἀποκτείνωσιν αὐτὸν οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς πόλεως δι᾽ αὐτήν ἀπέστειλεν δὲ Αβιμελεχ βασιλεὺς Γεραρων καὶ ἔλαβεν τὴν Σαρραν

3 καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ὁ θεὸς πρὸς Αβιμελεχ ἐν ὕπνῳ τὴν νύκτα καὶ εἶπεν ἰδοὺ σὺ ἀποθνῄσκεις περὶ τῆς γυναικός ἧς ἔλαβες αὕτη δέ ἐστιν συνῳκηκυῖα ἀνδρί

4 Αβιμελεχ δὲ οὐχ ἥψατο αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπεν κύριε ἔθνος ἀγνοοῦν καὶ δίκαιον ἀπολεῖς

5 οὐκ αὐτός μοι εἶπεν ἀδελφή μού ἐστιν καὶ αὐτή μοι εἶπεν ἀδελφός μού ἐστιν ἐν καθαρᾷ καρδίᾳ καὶ ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ χειρῶν ἐποίησα τοῦτο

6 εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς καθ᾽ ὕπνον κἀγὼ ἔγνων ὅτι ἐν καθαρᾷ καρδίᾳ ἐποίησας τοῦτο καὶ ἐφεισάμην ἐγώ σου τοῦ μὴ ἁμαρτεῖν σε εἰς ἐμέ ἕνεκεν τούτου οὐκ ἀφῆκά σε ἅψασθαι αὐτῆς

7 νῦν δὲ ἀπόδος τὴν γυναῖκα τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ ὅτι προφήτης ἐστὶν καὶ προσεύξεται περὶ σοῦ καὶ ζήσῃ εἰ δὲ μὴ ἀποδίδως γνῶθι ὅτι ἀποθανῇ σὺ καὶ πάντα τὰ σά

8 καὶ ὤρθρισεν Αβιμελεχ τὸ πρωὶ καὶ ἐκάλεσεν πάντας τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλάλησεν πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα εἰς τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν ἐφοβήθησαν δὲ πάντες οἱ ἄνθρωποι σφόδρα

9 καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Αβιμελεχ τὸν Αβρααμ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ τί τοῦτο ἐποίησας ἡμῖν μή τι ἡμάρτομεν εἰς σέ ὅτι ἐπήγαγες ἐπ᾽ ἐμὲ καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν βασιλείαν μου ἁμαρτίαν μεγάλην ἔργον ὃ οὐδεὶς ποιήσει πεποίηκάς μοι

10 εἶπεν δὲ Αβιμελεχ τῷ Αβρααμ τί ἐνιδὼν ἐποίησας τοῦτο

11 εἶπεν δὲ Αβρααμ εἶπα γάρ ἄρα οὐκ ἔστιν θεοσέβεια ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ ἐμέ τε ἀποκτενοῦσιν ἕνεκεν τῆς γυναικός μου

12 καὶ γὰρ ἀληθῶς ἀδελφή μού ἐστιν ἐκ πατρός ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ἐκ μητρός ἐγενήθη δέ μοι εἰς γυναῖκα

13 ἐγένετο δὲ ἡνίκα ἐξήγαγέν με ὁ θεὸς ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ πατρός μου καὶ εἶπα αὐτῇ ταύτην τὴν δικαιοσύνην ποιήσεις ἐπ᾽ ἐμέ εἰς πάντα τόπον οὗ ἐὰν εἰσέλθωμεν ἐκεῖ εἰπὸν ἐμὲ ὅτι ἀδελφός μού ἐστιν

14 ἔλαβεν δὲ Αβιμελεχ χίλια δίδραχμα πρόβατα καὶ μόσχους καὶ παῖδας καὶ παιδίσκας καὶ ἔδωκεν τῷ Αβρααμ καὶ ἀπέδωκεν αὐτῷ Σαρραν τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ

15 καὶ εἶπεν Αβιμελεχ τῷ Αβρααμ ἰδοὺ ἡ γῆ μου ἐναντίον σου οὗ ἐάν σοι ἀρέσκῃ κατοίκει

16 τῇ δὲ Σαρρα εἶπεν ἰδοὺ δέδωκα χίλια δίδραχμα τῷ ἀδελφῷ σου ταῦτα ἔσται σοι εἰς τιμὴν τοῦ προσώπου σου καὶ πάσαις ταῖς μετὰ σοῦ καὶ πάντα ἀλήθευσον

17 προσηύξατο δὲ Αβρααμ πρὸς τὸν θεόν καὶ ἰάσατο ὁ θεὸς τὸν Αβιμελεχ καὶ τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς παιδίσκας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔτεκον

18 ὅτι συγκλείων συνέκλεισεν κύριος ἔξωθεν πᾶσαν μήτραν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ Αβιμελεχ ἕνεκεν Σαρρας τῆς γυναικὸς Αβρααμ

1 Profectus inde Abraham in terram australem, habitavit inter Cades et Sur: et peregrinatus est in Geraris.

2 Dixitque de Sara uxore suo: Soror mea est. Misit ergo Abimelech rex Geraræ, et tulit eam.

3 Venit autem Deus ad Abimelech per somnium nocte, et ait illi: En morieris propter mulierem quam tulisti: habet enim virum.

4 Abimelech vero non tetigerat eam, et ait: Domine, num gentem ignorantem et justam interficies?

5 nonne ipse dixit mihi: Soror mea est: et ipsa ait: Frater meus est? In simplicitate cordis mei, et munditia manuum mearum feci hoc.

6 Dixitque ad eum Deus: Et ego scio quod simplici corde feceris: et ideo custodivi te ne peccares in me, et non dimisi ut tangeres eam.

7 Nunc ergo redde viro suo uxorem, quia propheta est: et orabit pro te, et vives: si autem nolueris reddere, scito quod morte morieris tu, et omnia quæ tua sunt.

8 Statimque de nocte consurgens Abimelech, vocavit omnes servos suos: et locutus est universa verba hæc in auribus eorum, timueruntque omnes viri valde.

9 Vocavit autem Abimelech etiam Abraham, et dixit ei: Quid fecisti nobis? quid peccavimus in te, quia induxisti super me et super regnum meum peccatum grande? quæ non debuisti facere, fecisti nobis.

10 Rursumque expostulans, ait: Quid vidisti, ut hoc faceres?

11 Respondit Abraham: Cogitavi mecum, dicens: Forsitan non est timor Dei in loco isto: et interficient me propter uxorem meam:

12 alias autem et vere soror mea est, filia patris mei, et non filia matris meæ, et duxi eam in uxorem.

13 Postquam autem eduxit me Deus de domo patris mei, dixi ad eam: Hanc misericordiam facies mecum: in omni loco, ad quem ingrediemur, dices quod frater tuus sim.

14 Tulit igitur Abimelech oves et boves, et servos et ancillas, et dedit Abraham: reddiditque illi Saram uxorem suam,

15 et ait: Terra coram vobis est, ubicumque tibi placuerit habita.

16 Saræ autem dixit: Ecce mille argenteos dedi fratri tuo, hoc erit tibi in velamen oculorum ad omnes qui tecum sunt, et quocumque perrexeris: mementoque te deprehensam.

17 Orante autem Abraham, sanavit Deus Abimelech et uxorem, ancillasque ejus, et pepererunt:

18 concluserat enim Dominus omnem vulvam domus Abimelech propter Saram uxorem Abrahæ.
