Abimelech king of Gcrar sent. and
took Sarah.
But God came to Abimelech in
a dream by night. add said to him.
Behold. thou art but a dead man.
for the woman which thou hast
taken; for she is a mans wife.
But Abimelech had not come

Therefore Abimelech rose
early in the morning. and called all

IL And yet indeed she is my
