Genesis 20:1 (NIRV) New International Reader's Version

1 Abraham moved away from there into the Negev Desert. He lived between Kadesh and Shur. For a while he stayed in Gerar.
2 There Abraham said about his wife Sarah, "She's my sister." Then Abimelech sent for Sarah and took her. He was the king of Gerar.
3 God came to Abimelech in a dream one night. He said to him, "You are as good as dead because of the woman you have taken. She is already married."
4 But Abimelech hadn't gone near her. So he said, "Lord, will you destroy a nation that hasn't done anything wrong?
5 Didn't Abraham say to me, 'She's my sister'? And didn't she also say, 'He's my brother'? I had no idea I was doing anything wrong. I'm not guilty."
6 Then God spoke to him in the dream. He said, "Yes, I know you had no idea you were doing anything wrong. So I have kept you from sinning against me. That is why I did not let you touch her.
7 "Now return the man's wife to him. He is a prophet. He will pray for you, and you will live. But what if you do not return her? Then you can be sure that you and all of your people will die."
8 Early the next morning Abimelech sent for all of his officials. He told them everything that had happened. They were really afraid.
9 Then Abimelech called Abraham in. He said, "What have you done to us? Have I done something wrong to you? Why have you brought so much guilt on me and my kingdom? You have done things to me that shouldn't be done."
10 Abimelech also asked Abraham, "Why did you do this?"
11 Abraham replied, "I thought, 'There isn't any respect for God in this place at all. They will kill me because of my wife.'
12 Besides, she really is my sister. She's the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother. And she became my wife.
13 "God had me wander away from my father's house. So I said to her, 'Here is how you can show your love to me. Everywhere we go, say about me, "He's my brother." ' "
14 Then Abimelech gave Abraham sheep and cattle and male and female slaves. He also returned his wife Sarah to him.
15 Abimelech said, "Here is my land. Live anywhere you want to."
16 He said to Sarah, "I'm giving your brother 25 pounds of silver. It will take care of the problem we caused you. And all those who are with you will know that you aren't guilty of doing anything wrong."
17 Then Abraham prayed to God. And God healed Abimelech. He also healed his wife and his female slaves so they could have children again.
18 The Lord had kept the women in Abimelech's house from having children. He had done it because of Abraham's wife Sarah.
1 And Abraham H85 journeyed H5265 W-VQY3MS from thence H8033 M-ADV toward the south H5045 D-NMS country H776 NFS-3FS , and dwelled H3427 W-VQY3MS between H996 PREP Kadesh H6946 LFS and Shur H7793 , and sojourned H1481 in Gerar H1642 .
2 And Abraham H85 said H559 W-VQY3MS of H413 PREP Sarah H8283 his wife H802 CFS-3MS , She H1931 PPRO-3FS is my sister H269 CFS-1MS : and Abimelech H40 king H4428 NMS of Gerar H1642 sent H7971 W-VQY3MS , and took H3947 W-VQY3MS Sarah H8283 .
3 But God H430 EDP came H935 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Abimelech H40 in a dream H2472 BD-NMS by night H3915 AMS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS to him , Behold H2009 , thou art but a dead man H4191 , for H5921 PREP the woman H802 D-NFS which H834 RPRO thou hast taken H3947 ; for she H1931 is a man H1167 \'s wife H1166 .
4 But Abimelech H40 had not H3808 NADV come near H7126 her : and he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Lord H136 EDS , wilt thou slay H2026 also H1571 CONJ a righteous H6662 AMS nation H1471 ?
5 Said H559 he H1931 PPRO-3MS not H3808 I-NADV unto me , She H1931 PPRO-3FS is my sister H269 CFS-1MS ? and she H1931 , even H1571 CONJ she herself H1931 PPRO-3FS said H559 , He H1931 PPRO-3MS is my brother H251 : in the integrity H8537 of my heart H3824 CMS-1MS and innocency H5356 of my hands H3709 have I done H6213 VQQ1MS this H2063 .
6 And God H430 D-NAME-4MS said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him in a dream H2472 , Yea H1571 CONJ , I H595 PPRO-1MS know H3045 VQY1MS that H3588 CONJ thou didst H6213 VQQ2MS this H2063 DPRO-3FS in the integrity H8537 of thy heart H3824 ; for I H595 PPRO-1MS also H1571 CONJ withheld H2820 thee from sinning H2398 against me : therefore H3651 ADV suffered H5414 I thee not H3808 NADV to touch H5060 her .
7 Now H6258 W-ADV therefore restore H7725 VHFA the man H376 D-NMS his wife H802 CFS ; for H3588 CONJ he H1931 PPRO-3MS is a prophet H5030 , and he shall pray H6419 for H1157 thee , and thou shalt live H2421 : and if H518 W-PART thou restore H7725 VHPMS her not H369 , know H3045 thou that H3588 CONJ thou shalt surely die H4191 VQFA , thou H859 PPRO-2MS , and all H3605 W-CMS that H834 RPRO are thine .
8 Therefore Abimelech H40 rose early H7925 in the morning H1242 B-NMS , and called H7121 W-VQY3MS all H3605 NMS his servants H5650 , and told H1696 W-VPY3MS all H3605 NMS these H428 D-DPRO-3MP things H1697 AMP in their ears H241 : and the men H376 D-NMP were sore afraid H3372 W-VQY3MP .
9 Then Abimelech H40 called H7121 W-VQY3MS Abraham H85 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , What H4100 hast thou done H6213 VQQ2MS unto us ? and what H4100 have I offended H2398 VQQ1MS thee , that H3588 CONJ thou hast brought H935 on H5921 PREP-1MS me and on H5921 W-PREP my kingdom H4467 a great H1419 sin H2401 ? thou hast done H6213 deeds H4639 unto H5973 me that H834 RPRO ought not H3808 NADV to be done H6213 VQQ2MS .
10 And Abimelech H40 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Abraham H85 , What H4100 IGAT sawest H7200 VQQ2MS thou , that H3588 CONJ thou hast done H6213 VQQ2MS this H2088 D-PMS thing H1697 D-NMS ?
11 And Abraham H85 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Because H3588 CONJ I thought H559 W-VQY3MS , Surely H7535 ADV the fear H3374 CFS of God H430 EDP is not H369 NPAR in this H2088 D-PMS place H4725 ; and they will slay H2026 me for H5921 PREP my wife H802 \'s sake H1697 CMS .
12 And yet H1571 W-CONJ indeed H546 she is my sister H269 CFS-1MS ; she H1931 PPRO-3FS is the daughter H1323 of my father H1 CMS-1MS , but H389 ADV not H3808 NADV the daughter H1323 of my mother H517 CFS-1MS ; and she became H1961 W-VQY3FS my wife H802 .
13 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when H834 RPRO God H430 EDP caused me to wander H8582 from my father\'s house H1004 , that I said H559 W-VQY1MS unto her , This H2088 DPRO is thy kindness H2617 which H834 RPRO thou shalt show H6213 unto H5973 me ; at H413 PREP every H3605 NMS place H4725 D-NMS whither H834 RPRO we shall come H935 VNQ3MS , say H559 VQI2FS of me , He H1931 PPRO-3MS is my brother H251 .
14 And Abimelech H40 took H3947 W-VQY3MS sheep H6629 NMS , and oxen H1241 W-NMS , and menservants H5650 W-NMP , and womenservants H8198 W-NFP , and gave H5414 W-VQQ3MS them unto Abraham H85 , and restored H7725 W-VHY3MS him Sarah H8283 his wife H802 .
15 And Abimelech H40 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC , my land H776 is before H6440 L-CMP-2MS thee : dwell H3427 where it pleaseth H2896 BD-NMS thee .
16 And unto Sarah H8283 he said H559 VQQ3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC , I have given H5414 VQQ1MS thy brother H251 a thousand H505 W-BMS pieces of silver H3701 NMS : behold H2009 IJEC , he H1931 PPRO-3MS is to thee a covering H3682 NFS of the eyes H5869 NMD , unto all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO are with H854 PART-2MS thee , and with H854 W-PART all H3605 NMS other : thus she was reproved H3198 .
17 So Abraham H85 prayed H6419 W-VTY3MS unto H413 PREP God H430 NAME-4MP : and God H430 EDP healed H7495 Abimelech H40 , and his wife H802 CFS-3MS , and his maidservants H519 ; and they bore H3205 children .
18 For H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS had fast closed up H6113 all H3605 NMS the wombs H7358 NMS of the house H1004 of Abimelech H40 , because H5921 PREP of Sarah H8283 Abraham H85 \'s wife H802 CFS .
