Genesis 20:9-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 20
9
Then Abimelech called Abraham and said to him, 'What have you done to us? And how have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? You have done to me things that ought not to be done.'
10
And Abimelech said to Abraham, 'What have you encountered, that you have done this thing?'
11
Abraham said, 'Because I thought, surely there is no fear of God in this place, and they will kill me because of my wife.
12
Besides, she actually is my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife;
King James Version
Chapter 20
9
Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him, What hast thou done unto us? and what have I offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds unto me that ought not to be done.
10
And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?
11
And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake.
12
And yet indeed she is my sister; she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.

Chapter 20
9
Then Abimelech called Abraham in and said to him, "What have you done to us? How did I sin against you that you have brought such enormous guilt on me and on my kingdom? You have done things to me that should never be done."
10
Abimelech also asked Abraham, "What made you do this?"
11
Abraham replied, "I thought, ‘There is absolutely no fear of God in this place. They will kill me because of my wife.’
12
Besides, she really is my sister, the daughter of my father though not the daughter of my mother, and she became my wife.
New Living Translation
Chapter 20
9
Then Abimelech called for Abraham. 'What have you done to us?' he demanded. 'What crime have I committed that deserves treatment like this, making me and my kingdom guilty of this great sin? No one should ever do what you have done!
10
Whatever possessed you to do such a thing?'
11
Abraham replied, 'I thought, ‘This is a godless place. They will want my wife and will kill me to get her.’
12
And she really is my sister, for we both have the same father, but different mothers. And I married her.

10
And Abimelech said to Abraham, "What did you see, that you did this thing?"
11
Abraham said, "I did it because I thought, ‘There is no fear of God at all in this place, and they will kill me because of my wife.’
12
Besides, she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father though not the daughter of my mother, and she became my wife.

9
Then Abimelek called Abraham in and said, "What have you done to us? How have I wronged you that you have brought such great guilt upon me and my kingdom? You have done things to me that should never be done."
10
And Abimelek asked Abraham, "What was your reason for doing this?"
11
Abraham replied, "I said to myself, ‘There is surely no fear of God in this place, and they will kill me because of my wife.’
12
Besides, she really is my sister, the daughter of my father though not of my mother; and she became my wife.
