Genesis 20:5-7
GOD’S WORD Translation
5 Didn’t he tell me himself, ‘She’s my sister,’ and didn’t she even say, ‘He’s my brother’? I did this in all innocence and with a clear conscience.”
6 “Yes, I know that you did this with a clear conscience,” God said to him in the dream. “In fact, I kept you from sinning against me. That’s why I didn’t let you touch her. 7 Give the man’s wife back to him now, because he’s a prophet. He will pray for you, and you will live. But if you don’t give her back, you and all who belong to you are doomed to die.”

Genesis 20:5-7
New International Version
5 Did he not say to me, ‘She is my sister,(A)’ and didn’t she also say, ‘He is my brother’? I have done this with a clear conscience(B) and clean hands.(C)”
6 Then God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know you did this with a clear conscience, and so I have kept(D) you from sinning against me.(E) That is why I did not let you touch her. 7 Now return the man’s wife, for he is a prophet,(F) and he will pray for you(G) and you will live. But if you do not return her, you may be sure that you and all who belong to you will die.”(H)
