- 1 Now YAHUAH had said unto Abram, Get you out of your country, and from your kindred, and from your father's house, unto a land that I will show you:
- 2 And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing:
- 3 And I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curse you: and in you shall all families of [h127]the ground be blessed.

- 10 And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine great in the land.
- 11 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 Aleph/Tav{\Hey} you a woman fair appearance:
- 12 Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see Aleph/Tav{\Kaph} you, that they shall say, cut from {Zayin}Aleph/Tav his wife: and they will kill Aleph/Tav{\Yod} me, but they will save Aleph/Tav{\Kaph} you alive.
- 13 Say, I pray you, Aleph/Tav{\Hey} you my sister: that it may be well with me for your sake; and my soul shall live because of you.
- 14 And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld Aleph/Tav–the woman that she very fair.
- 15 And the princes of Pharaoh saw Aleph/Tav{\Hey} her, [ויהללוּ][h1984]and praised Aleph/Tav{\Hey} her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
- 16 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.
- 17 And YAHUAH [h5060]touched Aleph/Tav–Pharaoh with great plagues[h5061] and Aleph/Tav–his house upon[h5921]–[h1697]word Sarai Abram's wife.
- 18 And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What cut from {Zayin}Aleph/Tav have you done unto me? why didst you not tell me that she your wife?
- 19 Why said you, She my sister? so I might have taken Aleph/Tav{\Hey} her to me to wife: now therefore behold your wife, take, and go your way.
- 20 And Pharaoh commanded men concerning him: and they sent Aleph/Tav{\Vav} him away, and Aleph/Tav–his wife, and Aleph/Tav–all–that–he had.
