4-5Abram was 75 years old when the Lord told him to leave the city of Haran. He obeyed and left with his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, and all the possessions and slaves they had acquired while in Haran.
When they came to the land of Canaan,
6Abram went as far as the sacred tree of Moreh in a place called Shechem. The Canaanites were still living in the land at that time,
7 officials told him about her, and she was taken to his house.
16The king was good to Abram because of Sarai, and Abram was given sheep, cattle, donkeys, slaves, and camels.
17Because of Sarai, the Lord struck the king and everyone in his palace with terrible diseases.
18Finally, the king sent for Abram and said to him, “What have you done to me? Why didn't you tell me Sarai was your wife?
19Why did you make me believe she was your sister? Now I've married her. Take her and go! She's your wife.”
20So the king told his men to let Abram and Sarai take their possessions and leave.
