Genesis 12:10-13

New King James Version

Abram in Egypt

¹⁰ Now there was ^(A)a famine in the land, and Abram ^(B)went down to Egypt to dwell there, for the famine was ^(C)severe in the land. ¹¹ And it came to pass, when he was close to entering Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, “Indeed I know that you are ^(D)a woman of beautiful countenance. ¹² Therefore it will happen, when the Egyptians see you, that they will say, ‘This is his wife’; and they ^(E)will kill me, but they will let you live. ^13 (F)Please say you are my ^(G)sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that ^[a]I may live because of you.”
