10. And Abimelech said to Abraham, “What were you thinking that you did this thing?”
11. And Abraham said, “Because I thought, surely there is no fear of God in this place; they will kill me on account of the matter of my wife.
12. Besides, she is my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother. And she became my wife.
13. And it happened that as God caused me to wander from the house of my father I said to her, ‘This is your loyal kindness that you must do for me at every place where we come: say concerning me, “He is my brother.” ’ ”
14. And Abimelech took sheep and cattle and male slaves and female slaves, and he gave them to Abraham. And he returned Sarah his wife to him.
15. And Abimelech said, “Here is my land before you; settle where it pleases you.”
16. And to Sarah he said, “Look, I have given a thousand pieces of silver to your brother. It shall be an exoneration. You are vindicated before all who are with you.”
17. And Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech and his wife and his female servants so that they could bear children again.
