Genesis 12:15-19 New English Translation (NET)

15. When Pharaoh’s officials saw her, they praised her to Pharaoh. So Abram’s wife was taken into the household of Pharaoh,

16. and he did treat Abram well on account of her. Abram received sheep and cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, and camels.

17. But the Lord struck Pharaoh and his household with severe diseases because of Sarai, Abram’s wife.

18. So Pharaoh summoned Abram and said, “What is this you have done to me? Why didn’t you tell me that she was your wife?

19. Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’ so that I took her to be my wife? Here is your wife! Take her and go!”
