Genesis 12:10-20 - Abram In Egypt

¹⁰ And there shall be a famine in the land; and Abram will go down to Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was strong in the land. ¹¹ And it shall be when he came near to go to Egypt, he will say to Sarai his wife, Behold, now I knew that thou wert a fair woman to see. ¹² And it shall be when the Egyptians shall see thee, they shall say, This is his wife; and they will kill me, and thee they will permit to live. ¹³ Say, now, thou my sister, that it shall be well to me because of thee, and my soul shall live by means of thee. ¹⁴ And it shall be when Abram goes to Egypt, and the Egyptians will see the woman that she was very fair. ¹⁵ And Pharaoh's rulers will see her, and will praise her to Pharaoh, and the woman shall be taken into Pharaoh's house. ¹⁶ And he will do good to Abram on account of her; and there shall be to him sheep and oxen and he-asses, and servants and maids, and she-asses and camels.

¹⁷ And Jehovah will touch Pharaoh with great strokes, and his house on account of Sarai, Abram's wife. ¹⁸ And Pharaoh will call to Abram, and will say, What this thou didst to me? why didst thou not declare to me that she is thy wife? ¹⁹ Why saidst thou, She is my sister and I shall take her to me for a wife? and now behold thy wife, take and go. ²⁰ And Pharaoh will command the men concerning him, and they will send him away, and his wife and all that is to him.
