01:012:008 And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of
           Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and
           Hai on the east:  and there he builded an altar unto the lord,
           and called upon the name of the lord.

01:012:009 And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.

01:012:010 And there was a famine in the land:  and Abram went down into
           Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the
           land.

01:012:011 And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into
           Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know
           that thou art a fair woman to look upon: 

01:012:012 Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see
           thee, that they shall say, This is his wife:  and they will
           kill me, but they will save thee alive.

01:012:013 Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister:  that it may be well with
           me for thy sake; and my soul shall live because of thee.

01:012:014 And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the
           Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.

01:012:015 The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before
           Pharaoh:  and the woman was taken into Pharaoh’s house.

01:012:016 And he entreated Abram well for her sake:  and he had sheep,
           and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants, and
           she asses, and camels.

01:012:017 And the lord plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues
           because of Sarai Abram’s wife.

01:012:018 And Pharaoh called Abram and said, What is this that thou hast
           done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she was thy
           wife?

01:012:019 Why saidst thou, She is my sister? so I might have taken her
           to me to wife:  now therefore behold thy wife, take her, and go
           thy way.

01:012:020 And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him:  and they sent
           him away, and his wife, and all that he had.

01:013:001 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that
           he had, and Lot with him, into the south.

01:013:002 And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.

01:013:003 And he went on his journeys from the south even to Bethel,
           unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning,
           between Bethel and Hai;

01:013:004 Unto the place of the altar, which he had make there at the
           first:  and there Abram called on the name of the lord.

01:013:005 And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds,
           and tents.

01:013:006 And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell
           together:  for their substance was great, so that they could
           not dwell together.
