- શું ઇબ્રાહિમે પોતે જ મને કહ્યું ન હતું કે, ‘તે મારી બહેન છે?’ વળી તે સ્ત્રીએ પોતે પણ કહ્યું હતું કે, ‘તે મારો ભાઈ છે.’ મેં મારા સાચા હૃદયથી તથા નિર્દોષ હાથથી આ કામ કર્યું છે.”

In context
3But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, “Behold, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken; for she is a man’s wife.”
4Now Abimelech had not come near her. He said, “Lord, will you kill even a righteous nation?
5Didn’t he tell me, ‘She is my sister’? She, even she herself, said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this in the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands.”
6God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I didn’t allow you to touch her.
7Now therefore, restore the man’s wife. For he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you will live. If you don’t restore her, know for sure that you will die, you, and all who are yours.”
