Genesis 20

KJV

1  And Abraham85 journeyed5265 from thence4480 8033 toward the south5045 country,776 and dwelled3427 between996 Kadesh6946 and Shur,7793 and sojourned1481 in Gerar.1642

2  And Abraham85 said559 of413 Sarah8283 his wife,802 She1931 is my sister:269 and Abimelech40 king4428 of Gerar1642 sent,7971 and took3947 853 Sarah.8283

3  But God430 came935 to413 Abimelech40 in a dream2472 by night,3915 and said559 to him, Behold,2009 thou art but a dead man,4191 for5921 the woman802 which834 thou hast taken;3947 for she1931 is a man's1167 wife.1166

4  But Abimelech40 had not3808 come near7126 413 her: and he said,559 Lord,136 wilt thou slay2026 also1571 a righteous6662 nation?1471

5  Said559 he1931 not3808 unto me, She1931 is my sister?269 and she,1931 even1571 she herself1931 said,559 He1931 is my brother:251 in the integrity8537 of my heart3824 and innocency5356 of my hands3709 have I done6213 this.2063

6  And God430 said559 unto413 him in a dream,2472 Yea,1571 I595 know3045 that3588 thou didst6213 this2063 in the integrity8537 of thy heart;3824 for I595 also1571 withheld2820 thee from sinning4480 2398 against me: therefore5921 3651 suffered5414 I thee not3808 to touch5060 413 her.

7  Now6258 therefore restore7725 the man376 his wife;802 for3588 he1931 is a prophet,5030 and he shall pray6419 for1157 thee, and thou shalt live:2421 and if518 thou restore7725 her not,369 know3045 thou that3588 thou shalt surely die,4191 4191 thou,859 and all3605 that834 are thine.

8  Therefore Abimelech40 rose early7925 in the morning,1242 and called7121 all3605 his servants,5650 and told1696 853 all3605 these428 things1697 in their ears:241 and the men376 were sore afraid.3372 3966

9  Then Abimelech40 called7121 Abraham,85 and said559 unto him, What4100 hast thou done6213 unto us? and what4100 have I offended2398 thee, that3588 thou hast brought935 on5921 me and on5921 my kingdom4467 a great1419 sin?2401 thou hast done6213 deeds4639 unto5973 me that834 ought not3808 to be done.6213

10  And Abimelech40 said559 unto413 Abraham,85 What4100 sawest7200 thou, that3588 thou hast done6213 853 this2088 thing?1697

11  And Abraham85 said,559 Because3588 I thought,559 Surely7535 the fear3374 of God430 is not369 in this2088 place;4725 and they will slay2026 me for5921 my wife's802 sake.1697

12  And yet1571 indeed546 she is my sister;269 she1931 is the daughter1323 of my father,1 but389 not3808 the daughter1323 of my mother;517 and she became1961 my wife.802

13  And it came to pass,1961 when834 God430 caused me to wander8582 from my father's house,4480 1004 1 that I said559 unto her, This2088 is thy kindness2617 which834 thou shalt show6213 unto5973 me; at413 every3605 place4725 whither834 8033 we shall come,935 say559 of me, He1931 is my brother.251

14  And Abimelech40 took3947 sheep,6629 and oxen,1241 and menservants,5650 and womenservants,8198 and gave5414 them unto Abraham,85 and restored7725 him 853 Sarah8283 his wife.802

15  And Abimelech40 said,559 Behold,2009 my land776 is before6440 thee: dwell3427 where it pleaseth2896 5869 thee.

16  And unto Sarah8283 he said,559 Behold,2009 I have given5414 thy brother251 a thousand505 pieces of silver:3701 behold,2009 he1931 is to thee a covering3682 of the eyes,5869 unto all3605 that834 are with854 thee, and with854 all3605 other: thus she was reproved.3198

17  So Abraham85 prayed6419 unto413 God:430 and God430 healed7495 853 Abimelech,40 and his wife,802 and his maidservants;519 and they bore3205 children.

18  For3588 the LORD3068 had fast closed up6113 6113 1157 all3605 the wombs7358 of the house1004 of Abimelech,40 because5921 1697 of Sarah8283 Abraham's85 wife.802

1 καὶ ἐκίνησεν ἐκεῖθεν Αβρααμ εἰς γῆν πρὸς λίβα καὶ ᾤκησεν ἀνὰ μέσον Καδης καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Σουρ καὶ παρῴκησεν ἐν Γεραροις

2 εἶπεν δὲ Αβρααμ περὶ Σαρρας τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἀδελφή μού ἐστιν ἐφοβήθη γὰρ εἰπεῖν ὅτι γυνή μού ἐστιν μήποτε ἀποκτείνωσιν αὐτὸν οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς πόλεως δι᾽ αὐτήν ἀπέστειλεν δὲ Αβιμελεχ βασιλεὺς Γεραρων καὶ ἔλαβεν τὴν Σαρραν

3 καὶ εἰσῆλθεν ὁ θεὸς πρὸς Αβιμελεχ ἐν ὕπνῳ τὴν νύκτα καὶ εἶπεν ἰδοὺ σὺ ἀποθνῄσκεις περὶ τῆς γυναικός ἧς ἔλαβες αὕτη δέ ἐστιν συνῳκηκυῖα ἀνδρί

4 Αβιμελεχ δὲ οὐχ ἥψατο αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπεν κύριε ἔθνος ἀγνοοῦν καὶ δίκαιον ἀπολεῖς

5 οὐκ αὐτός μοι εἶπεν ἀδελφή μού ἐστιν καὶ αὐτή μοι εἶπεν ἀδελφός μού ἐστιν ἐν καθαρᾷ καρδίᾳ καὶ ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ χειρῶν ἐποίησα τοῦτο

6 εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς καθ᾽ ὕπνον κἀγὼ ἔγνων ὅτι ἐν καθαρᾷ καρδίᾳ ἐποίησας τοῦτο καὶ ἐφεισάμην ἐγώ σου τοῦ μὴ ἁμαρτεῖν σε εἰς ἐμέ ἕνεκεν τούτου οὐκ ἀφῆκά σε ἅψασθαι αὐτῆς

7 νῦν δὲ ἀπόδος τὴν γυναῖκα τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ ὅτι προφήτης ἐστὶν καὶ προσεύξεται περὶ σοῦ καὶ ζήσῃ εἰ δὲ μὴ ἀποδίδως γνῶθι ὅτι ἀποθανῇ σὺ καὶ πάντα τὰ σά

8 καὶ ὤρθρισεν Αβιμελεχ τὸ πρωὶ καὶ ἐκάλεσεν πάντας τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλάλησεν πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα εἰς τὰ ὦτα αὐτῶν ἐφοβήθησαν δὲ πάντες οἱ ἄνθρωποι σφόδρα

9 καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Αβιμελεχ τὸν Αβρααμ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ τί τοῦτο ἐποίησας ἡμῖν μή τι ἡμάρτομεν εἰς σέ ὅτι ἐπήγαγες ἐπ᾽ ἐμὲ καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν βασιλείαν μου ἁμαρτίαν μεγάλην ἔργον ὃ οὐδεὶς ποιήσει πεποίηκάς μοι

10 εἶπεν δὲ Αβιμελεχ τῷ Αβρααμ τί ἐνιδὼν ἐποίησας τοῦτο

11 εἶπεν δὲ Αβρααμ εἶπα γάρ ἄρα οὐκ ἔστιν θεοσέβεια ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ ἐμέ τε ἀποκτενοῦσιν ἕνεκεν τῆς γυναικός μου

12 καὶ γὰρ ἀληθῶς ἀδελφή μού ἐστιν ἐκ πατρός ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ἐκ μητρός ἐγενήθη δέ μοι εἰς γυναῖκα

13 ἐγένετο δὲ ἡνίκα ἐξήγαγέν με ὁ θεὸς ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ πατρός μου καὶ εἶπα αὐτῇ ταύτην τὴν δικαιοσύνην ποιήσεις ἐπ᾽ ἐμέ εἰς πάντα τόπον οὗ ἐὰν εἰσέλθωμεν ἐκεῖ εἰπὸν ἐμὲ ὅτι ἀδελφός μού ἐστιν

14 ἔλαβεν δὲ Αβιμελεχ χίλια δίδραχμα πρόβατα καὶ μόσχους καὶ παῖδας καὶ παιδίσκας καὶ ἔδωκεν τῷ Αβρααμ καὶ ἀπέδωκεν αὐτῷ Σαρραν τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ

15 καὶ εἶπεν Αβιμελεχ τῷ Αβρααμ ἰδοὺ ἡ γῆ μου ἐναντίον σου οὗ ἐάν σοι ἀρέσκῃ κατοίκει

16 τῇ δὲ Σαρρα εἶπεν ἰδοὺ δέδωκα χίλια δίδραχμα τῷ ἀδελφῷ σου ταῦτα ἔσται σοι εἰς τιμὴν τοῦ προσώπου σου καὶ πάσαις ταῖς μετὰ σοῦ καὶ πάντα ἀλήθευσον

17 προσηύξατο δὲ Αβρααμ πρὸς τὸν θεόν καὶ ἰάσατο ὁ θεὸς τὸν Αβιμελεχ καὶ τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς παιδίσκας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔτεκον

18 ὅτι συγκλείων συνέκλεισεν κύριος ἔξωθεν πᾶσαν μήτραν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ Αβιμελεχ ἕνεκεν Σαρρας τῆς γυναικὸς Αβρααμ

Vul

1 Profectus inde Abraham in terram australem, habitavit inter Cades et Sur: et peregrinatus est in Geraris.

2 Dixitque de Sara uxore suo: Soror mea est. Misit ergo Abimelech rex Geraræ, et tulit eam.

3 Venit autem Deus ad Abimelech per somnium nocte, et ait illi: En morieris propter mulierem quam tulisti: habet enim virum.

4 Abimelech vero non tetigerat eam, et ait: Domine, num gentem ignorantem et justam interficies?

5 nonne ipse dixit mihi: Soror mea est: et ipsa ait: Frater meus est? In simplicitate cordis mei, et munditia manuum mearum feci hoc.

6 Dixitque ad eum Deus: Et ego scio quod simplici corde feceris: et ideo custodivi te ne peccares in me, et non dimisi ut tangeres eam.

7 Nunc ergo redde viro suo uxorem, quia propheta est: et orabit pro te, et vives: si autem nolueris reddere, scito quod morte morieris tu, et omnia quæ tua sunt.

8 Statimque de nocte consurgens Abimelech, vocavit omnes servos suos: et locutus est universa verba hæc in auribus eorum, timueruntque omnes viri valde.

9 Vocavit autem Abimelech etiam Abraham, et dixit ei: Quid fecisti nobis? quid peccavimus in te, quia induxisti super me et super regnum meum peccatum grande? quæ non debuisti facere, fecisti nobis.

10 Rursumque expostulans, ait: Quid vidisti, ut hoc faceres?

11 Respondit Abraham: Cogitavi mecum, dicens: Forsitan non est timor Dei in loco isto: et interficient me propter uxorem meam:

12 alias autem et vere soror mea est, filia patris mei, et non filia matris meæ, et duxi eam in uxorem.

13 Postquam autem eduxit me Deus de domo patris mei, dixi ad eam: Hanc misericordiam facies mecum: in omni loco, ad quem ingrediemur, dices quod frater tuus sim.

14 Tulit igitur Abimelech oves et boves, et servos et ancillas, et dedit Abraham: reddiditque illi Saram uxorem suam,

15 et ait: Terra coram vobis est, ubicumque tibi placuerit habita.

16 Saræ autem dixit: Ecce mille argenteos dedi fratri tuo, hoc erit tibi in velamen oculorum ad omnes qui tecum sunt, et quocumque perrexeris: mementoque te deprehensam.

17 Orante autem Abraham, sanavit Deus Abimelech et uxorem, ancillasque ejus, et pepererunt:

18 concluserat enim Dominus omnem vulvam domus Abimelech propter Saram uxorem Abrahæ.
