01:019:036 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with
child by their
father.
01:019:037 And the first born bare a son, and called
his name Moab: the
same
is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
01:019:038 And the younger, she also bare a son, and
called his name
Benammi:
the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto
this
day.
01:020:001 And Abraham journeyed from thence toward
the south country,
and
dwelled between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned in Gerar.
01:020:002 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She
is my sister: and
Abimelech
king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
01:020:003 But God came to Abimelech in a dream by
night, and said to
him,
Behold, thou art but a dead man, for the woman which
thou
hast
taken; for she is a man’s wife.
01:020:004 But Abimelech had not come near her:
and he said, lord, wilt
thou
slay also a righteous nation?
01:020:005 Said he not unto me, She is my sister?
and she, even she
herself
said, He is my brother: in the integrity of my
heart
and
innocency of my hands have I done this.
01:020:006 And God said unto him in a dream, Yea,
I know that thou didst
this
in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld
thee
from
sinning against me: therefore suffered I thee
not to
touch
her.
01:020:007 Now therefore restore the man his wife;
for he is a prophet,
and
he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and
if thou
restore
her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou,
and
all that are thine.
01:020:008 Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning,
and called all
his
servants, and told all these things in their ears:
and the
men
were sore afraid.
01:020:009 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said
unto him, What hast
thou
done unto us? and what have I offended thee, that thou
hast
brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast
done
deeds unto me that ought not to be done.
01:020:010 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What sawest
thou, that thou
hast
done this thing?
01:020:011 And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely
the fear of God is
not
in this place; and they will slay me for my wife’s
sake.
01:020:012 And yet indeed she is my sister; she is
the daughter of my
father,
but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my
wife.
01:020:013 And it came to pass, when God caused me
to wander from my
father’s
house, that I said unto her, This is thy kindness
which
thou shalt shew unto me; at every place whither we
shall
come,
say of me, He is my brother.
