Genesis 20:5-7
Living Bible
5 He told me, ‘She is my sister,’ and she herself said, ‘Yes, he is my brother.’ I hadn’t the slightest intention of doing anything wrong.”
6 “Yes, I know,” the Lord replied. “That is why I held you back from sinning against me; that is why I didn’t let you touch her. 7 Now restore her to her husband, and he will pray for you (for he is a prophet) and you shall live. But if you don’t return her to him, you are doomed to death along with all your household.”

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)
