And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, she is my sister: And Abimelech king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.

But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou art but a dead man, on account of the woman whom thou hast taken: for she is a man's wife.

אֲבִימֶ֖לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, Lord, wilt thou also slay a righteous nation?

Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears: and the men were greatly afraid.

אֲבִימֶ֜לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, What has thou done to us? and in what have I offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds to me that ought not to be done.

אֲבִימֶ֜לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And Abimelech said to Abraham, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?

אֲבִימֶ֖לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and men-servants, and women-servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored to him Sarah his wife.

And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.

So Abraham prayed to God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maid-servants, and they bore children.

For the LORD had made barren all the females of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.

And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, spoke to Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou doest:

אֲבִימֶ֗לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And Abraham reproved Abimelech, because of a well of water, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.

אֲבִימֶ֑לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”אֲבִימֶֽלֶךְ׃ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And Abimelech said, I know not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet have I heard of it, but to-day.

אֲבִימֶ֔לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech: and both of them made a covenant.

And Abimelech said to Abraham, What mean these seven ewe-lambs, which thou hast set by themselves?

אֲבִימֶ֖לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

Thus they made a covenant at Beer-sheba: Then Abimelech arose, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.

אֲבִימֶ֗לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And there was a famine in the land, besides the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines to Gerar.

אֲבִימֶּ֥לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And it came to pass when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife.

אֲבִימֶ֙לֶךְ֙ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, surely she is thy wife: and how saidst thou, She is my sister? and Isaac said to him, Because I said, Lest I should die on her account.

אֲבִימֶ֜לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done to us? one of the people might lightly have lain with thy wife, and thou wouldst have brought guiltiness upon us.

אֲבִימֶ֔לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.

אֲבִימֶ֔לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go from us: for thou art much mightier than we.

אֲבִימֶ֖לֶךְ 'a.vi.Me.lekh “Abimelech”

Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.
