Genesis 20:10-18 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

10. And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What didst thou see that thou hast done this thing?

11. 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.

12. And yet indeed, she is also 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 God caused me to wander from my father’s house that I said unto her, This is the mercy which thou shalt show unto me: at every place where we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.

14. Then Abimelech took sheep and oxen and menslaves and womenslaves and gave them unto Abraham and restored him Sarah his wife.

15. And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee; dwell where it pleases thee.

16. And unto Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver; behold, he is to thee a covering of the eyes, unto all that were with thee and with everyone: thus she was reproved.

17. So Abraham prayed unto God; and God healed Abimelech and his wife and his maidservants; and they bore children.

18. For the Lord had completely closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
