4. So Abram[H87] departed,[H1980] as[H834] the LORD[H3068] had spoken[H1696] unto[H413] him; and Lot[H3876] went[H1980] with[H854] him: and Abram[H87] was seventy[H7657] and five[H2568] years[H8141] old[H1121] when he departed[H3318] out of Haran.[H4480] [H2771]

6. And Abram[H87] passed through[H5674] the land[H776] unto[H5704] the place[H4725] of Sichem,[H7927] unto[H5704] the plain[H436] of Moreh.[H4176] And the Canaanite[H3669] was then[H227] in the land.[H776]
7. And the LORD[H3068] appeared[H7200] unto[H413] Abram,[H87] and said,[H559] Unto thy seed[H2233] will I give[H5414] [H853] this[H2063] land:[H776] and there[H8033] built[H1129] he an altar[H4196] unto the LORD,[H3068] who appeared[H7200] unto[H413] him.

10. And there was[H1961] a famine[H7458] in the land:[H776] and Abram[H87] went down[H3381] into Egypt[H4714] to sojourn[H1481] there;[H8033] for[H3588] the famine[H7458] was grievous[H3515] in the land.[H776]
11. And it came to pass,[H1961] when[H834] he was come near[H7126] to enter[H935] into Egypt,[H4714] that he said[H559] unto[H413] Sarai[H8297] his wife,[H802] Behold[H2009] now,[H4994] I know[H3045] that[H3588] thou[H859] art a fair[H3303] woman[H802] to look upon: [H4758]
12. Therefore it shall come to pass,[H1961] when[H3588] the Egyptians[H4713] shall see[H7200] thee, that they shall say,[H559] This[H2063] is his wife:[H802] and they will kill[H2026] me, but they will save thee alive.[H2421]
13. Say,[H559] I pray thee,[H4994] thou[H859] art my sister:[H269] that[H4616] it may be well[H3190] with me for thy sake;[H5668] and my soul[H5315] shall live[H2421] because of[H1558] thee.
14. And it came to pass,[H1961] that, when Abram[H87] was come[H935] into Egypt,[H4714] the Egyptians[H4713] beheld[H7200] [H853] the woman[H802] that[H3588] she[H1931] was very[H3966] fair.[H3303]
15. The princes[H8269] also of Pharaoh[H6547] saw[H7200] her, and commended[H1984] her before[H413] Pharaoh:[H6547] and the woman[H802] was taken[H3947] into Pharaoh's[H6547] house.[H1004]
16. And he entreated Abram well[H3190] [H87] for her sake:[H5668] and he had[H1961] sheep,[H6629] and oxen,[H1241] and he asses,[H2543] and menservants,[H5650] and maidservants,[H8198] and she asses,[H860] and camels.[H1581]
17. And the LORD[H3068] plagued[H5060] [H853] Pharaoh[H6547] and his house[H1004] with great[H1419] plagues[H5061] because of[H5921] [H1697] Sarai[H8297] Abram's[H87] wife.[H802]
18. And Pharaoh[H6547] called[H7121] Abram,[H87] and said,[H559] What[H4100] is this[H2063] that thou hast done[H6213] unto me? why[H4100] didst thou not[H3808] tell[H5046] me that[H3588] she[H1931] was thy wife?[H802]
19. Why[H4100] saidst[H559] thou, She[H1931] is my sister?[H269] so I might have taken[H3947] her to me to wife:[H802] now therefore[H6258] behold[H2009] thy wife,[H802] take[H3947] her, and go thy way.[H1980]
20. And Pharaoh[H6547] commanded[H6680] his men[H376] concerning[H5921] him: and they sent him away,[H7971] [H853] and his wife,[H802] and all[H3605] that[H834] he had.
