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.
