Génesis 20

1 De allí se partió Abraham a la tierra del mediodía, y asentó entre Cádes y Sur; y peregrinó en Gerar.

And Abraham journeyed from there toward the south country, and dwelled between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned in Gerar.

2 Y decía Abraham de Sara su mujer: Mi hermana es. Y Abimelec, rey de Gerar, envió, y tomó a Sara.

And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister: and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.

3 Empero Dios vino a Abimelec en sueños de noche, y díjole: He aquí, muerto eres por la mujer que tomaste, la cual es casada con marido.

But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, you are but a dead man, for the woman which you have taken; for she is a man’s wife.

4 Mas Abimelec no había llegado a ella, y dijo: Señor: ¿matarás también la gente justa?

But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, LORD, will you slay also a righteous nation?

5 ¿El no me dijo: Mi hermana es; y ella también dijo: Mi hermano es? Con sencillez de mi corazón, y con limpieza de mis manos he hecho esto.

Said he not to me, She is my sister? and she, even she herself said, He is my brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocence of my hands have I done this.

6 Y díjole Dios en sueños: Yo también sé que con entereza de tu corazón has hecho esto: y yo también te detuve de pecar contra mí, por tanto no te permití que tocases en ella.

And God said to him in a dream, Yes, I know that you did this in the integrity of your heart; for I also withheld you from sinning against me: therefore suffered I you not to touch her.

7 Ahora, pues, vuelve la mujer a su marido, porque es profeta; y orará por ti, y vive. Y si tú no la volvieres, sepas que muriendo morirás con todo lo que fuere tuyo.

Now therefore restore the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for you, and you shall live: and if you restore her not, know you that you shall surely die, you, and all that are yours.

8 Entonces Abimelec se levantó de mañana, y llamó a todos sus siervos, y dijo todas estas palabras en los oídos de ellos, y temieron los hombres en gran manera.

Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears: and the men were sore afraid.

9 Después llamó Abimelec a Abraham, y díjole: ¿Qué nos has hecho? ¿y qué pequé yo contra ti, que has metido sobre mí, y sobre mi reino tan gran pecado? Obras que no son de hacer has hecho conmigo.

Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, What have you done to us? and what have I offended you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? you have done deeds to me that should not to be done.

10 Y dijo más Abimelec a Abraham: ¿Qué viste, para que hicieses esto?

And Abimelech said to Abraham, What saw you, that you have done this thing?

11 Y Abraham respondió: Porque dije: Cierto no hay temor de Dios en este lugar: y matarme han por causa de mi mujer.

And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife’s sake.

12 Y también cierto mi hermana es, hija de mi padre, mas no hija de mi madre, y toméla por mujer.

And yet indeed she is my sister; she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.

13 Y fue, que cuando Dios me hizo salir vagabundo de la casa de mi padre, yo le dije: Esta será tu misericordia que harás conmigo, que en todos los lugares donde viniéremos, digas de mí, Mi hermano es.

And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said to her, This is your kindness which you shall show to me; at every place where we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.

14 Entonces Abimelec tomó ovejas y vacas, y siervos, y siervas, y dio a Abraham, y volvióle a Sara su mujer:

And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and womenservants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.

15 Y dijo Abimelec: He aquí, mi tierra está delante de ti, en lo que bien te pareciere, habita.

And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before you: dwell where it pleases you.

16 Y a Sara dijo: He aquí, he dado mil pesos de plata a tu hermano; he aquí, él te es por velo de ojos a todos los que estuvieron contigo, y con todos: y escarmienta.

And to Sarah he said, Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver: behold, he is to you a covering of the eyes, to all that are with you, and with all other: thus she was reproved.

17 Entonces Abraham oró a Dios, y Dios sanó a Abimelec y a su mujer, y a sus siervas, y parieron.

So Abraham prayed to God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bore children.

18 Porque cerrando había cerrado Jehová toda matriz de la casa de Abimelec, a causa de Sara mujer de Abraham.

For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham’s wife.
