Abraham’s Treachery
1Lalu Abraham berangkat dari situ ke Tanah Negeb dan ia menetap antara Kadesh dan Syur. Ia tinggal di Gerar sebagai orang asing. 2Oleh karena Abraham telah mengatakan tentang Sara, isterinya: "Dia saudaraku," maka Abimelekh, raja Gerar, menyuruh mengambil Sara. 3Tetapi pada waktu malam Allah datang kepada Abimelekh dalam suatu mimpi serta berfirman kepadanya: "Engkau harus mati oleh karena perempuan yang telah kauambil itu; sebab ia sudah bersuami." 4Adapun Abimelekh belum menghampiri Sara. Berkatalah ia: "Tuhan ! Apakah Engkau membunuh bangsa yang tak bersalah ? 5Bukankah orang itu sendiri mengatakan kepadaku: Dia saudaraku ? Dan perempuan itu sendiri telah mengatakan: Ia saudaraku. Jadi hal ini kulakukan dengan hati yang tulus dan dengan tangan yang suci." 6Lalu berfirmanlah Allah kepadanya dalam mimpi: "Aku tahu juga, bahwa engkau telah melakukan hal itu dengan hati yang tulus, maka Akupun telah mencegah engkau untuk berbuat dosa terhadap Aku; sebab itu Aku tidak membiarkan engkau menjamah dia. 7Jadi sekarang, kembalikanlah isteri orang itu, sebab dia seorang nabi; ia akan berdoa untuk engkau, maka engkau tetap hidup; tetapi jika engkau tidak mengembalikan dia, ketahuilah, engkau pasti mati, engkau dan semua orang yang bersama-sama dengan engkau."
1Now Abraham journeyed from there toward the land of the Negev, and settled between Kadesh and Shur; then he lived for a time in Gerar. 2And Abraham said of his wife Sarah, “She is my sister.” So Abimelech king of Gerar sent men and took Sarah. 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 married.” 4Now Abimelech had not come near her; and he said, “Lord, will You kill a nation, even though blameless? 5“Did he himself not say to me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, ‘He is my brother.’ In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands I have done this.” 6Then God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also kept you from sinning against Me; therefore I did not let you touch her. 7“Now then, return the man’s wife, for he is a prophet, and he will pray for you and you will live. But if you do not return her, know that you will certainly die, you and all who are yours.”
8Keesokan harinya pagi-pagi Abimelekh memanggil semua hambanya dan memberitahukan seluruh peristiwa itu kepada mereka, lalu sangat takutlah orang-orang itu. 9Kemudian Abimelekh memanggil Abraham dan berkata kepadanya: "Perbuatan apakah yang kaulakukan ini terhadap kami, dan kesalahan apakah yang kulakukan terhadap engkau, sehingga engkau mendatangkan dosa besar atas diriku dan kerajaanku ? Engkau telah berbuat hal-hal yang tidak patut kepadaku." 10Lagi kata Abimelekh kepada Abraham: "Apakah maksudmu, maka engkau melakukan hal ini ?" 11Lalu Abraham berkata: "Aku berpikir: Takut akan Allah tidak ada di tempat ini; tentulah aku akan dibunuh karena isteriku. 12Lagipula ia benar-benar saudaraku, anak ayahku, hanya bukan anak ibuku, tetapi kemudian ia menjadi isteriku. 13Ketika Allah menyuruh aku mengembara keluar dari rumah ayahku, berkatalah aku kepada isteriku: Tunjukkanlah kasihmu kepadaku, yakni: katakanlah tentang aku di tiap-tiap tempat di mana kita tiba: Ia saudaraku." 14Kemudian Abimelekh mengambil kambing domba dan lembu sapi, hamba laki-laki dan perempuan, lalu memberikan semuanya itu kepada Abraham; Sara, isteri Abraham, juga dikembalikannya kepadanya. 15Dan Abimelekh berkata: "Negeriku ini terbuka untuk engkau; menetaplah, di mana engkau suka." 16Lalu katanya kepada Sara: "Telah kuberikan kepada saudaramu seribu syikal perak, itulah bukti kesucianmu bagi semua orang yang bersama-sama dengan engkau. Maka dalam segala hal engkau dibenarkan." 17Lalu Abraham berdoa kepada Allah, dan Allah menyembuhkan Abimelekh dan isterinya dan budak-budaknya perempuan, sehingga mereka melahirkan anak. 18Sebab tadinya TUHAN telah menutup kandungan setiap perempuan di istana Abimelekh karena Sara, isteri Abraham itu.
8So Abimelech got up early in the morning and called all his servants, and told all these things in their presence; and the people were greatly frightened. 9Then 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.” 10And Abimelech said to Abraham, “What have you encountered, that you have done this thing?” 11Abraham 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; 13and it came about, when God caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said to her, ‘This is the kindness which you will show to me: everywhere we go, say of me, “He is my brother.”’” 14Abimelech then took sheep and oxen and male and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and returned his wife Sarah to him. 15Abimelech said, “Behold, my land is before you; settle wherever you please.” 16To Sarah he said, “Look, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver. It is your vindication before all who are with you, and before everyone you are cleared.” 17Then Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech and his wife and his female slaves, so that they gave birth to children. 18For the LORD had completely closed all the wombs of the household of Abimelech because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
