9. Then Abimelech called Abraham and asked, “What have you done to us? What wrong have I done to you to make you bring this disaster on me and my kingdom? No one should ever do what you have done to me.
10. Why did you do it?”
11. Abraham answered, “I thought that there would be no one here who has reverence for God and that they would kill me to get my wife.
12. She really is my sister. She is the daughter of my father, but not of my mother, and I married her.
13. So when God sent me from my father's house into foreign lands, I said to her, ‘You can show how loyal you are to me by telling everyone that I am your brother.’ ”
14. Then Abimelech gave Sarah back to Abraham, and at the same time he gave him sheep, cattle, and slaves.
15. He said to Abraham, “Here is my whole land; live anywhere you like.”
