12. Still, indeed, she is my sister. She is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother. She became my wife.
13. When God caused me to travel from my father’s house, I said to her, ‘This is your kindness which you must show me: Every place where we go, say concerning me, He is my brother.’ ”
14. Then Abimelek took sheep, oxen, and male and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and returned his wife Sarah to him.
15. Abimelek said, “My land is before you; settle wherever it pleases you.”
16. To Sarah he said, “I have given your brother a thousand shekels of silver. It is a sign of your innocence in the eyes of all who are with you, and before everyone you are vindicated.”
17. So Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelek, his wife, and his female servants. Then they bore children.
