12 But indeed ashe is truly my sister. She is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
13 And it came to pass, when aGod caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said to her, ‘This is your kindness that you should do for me: in every place, wherever we go, bsay of me, “He is my brother.” ’ ”
14 Then Abimelech atook sheep, oxen, and male and female servants, and gave them to Abraham; and he restored Sarah his wife to him.
15 And Abimelech said, “See, amy land is before you; dwell where it pleases you.”
16 Then to Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver; aindeed this vindicates you bbefore all who are with you and before everybody.” Thus she was2 rebuked.
17 So Abraham prayed ato God; and God bhealed Abimelech, his wife, and his female servants. Then they bore children;
18 for the Lord ahad closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
