Abraham’s Treachery

20 Now Abraham journeyed from ^(A)there toward the land of ^(B)the ^[a]Negev, and ^[b]settled between Kadesh and Shur; then he lived for a time in ^(C)Gerar. ² And Abraham said of his wife Sarah, “^(D)She is my sister.” So ^(E)Abimelech king of Gerar sent men and took Sarah. ^3 (F)But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, “Behold, ^(G)you are a dead man because of the woman whom you have taken, for she is ^[c]married.”
