Say, I pray thee, thou {art} my sister: that it may be well with me for thy sake; and my soul shall live because of thee.

And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine {was} grievous in the land.

Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they shall say, This {is} his wife: and they will kill me, but they will save thee alive.

And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.

And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou {art} a fair woman to look upon:

And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What {is} this {that} thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she {was} thy wife?

And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.

Why saidst thou, She {is} my sister? so I might have taken her to me to wife: now therefore behold thy wife, take {her}, and go thy way.

And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south. {going...: Heb. in going and journeying}

And Pharaoh commanded {his} men concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.

And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.

Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

And he entreated Abram well for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants, and she asses, and camels.

And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, {having} Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.

So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram {was} seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.

And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite {was} then in the land. {plain: Heb. plains}

The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.

And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she {was} very fair.
