Genesis 20:16-18
EasyEnglish Bible
16 Abimelech said to Sarah, ‘I have given 1,000 pieces of silver to your brother.[a] This is to show everyone that you yourself did nothing wrong. It will pay you for any trouble that you have received.’
17 Then Abraham prayed to God. As a result, God made Abimelech become well again. He also made Abimelech's wife and his female slaves become well, so that they could have children again. 18 The Lord had made them unable to have children. He did this because of what happened to Abraham's wife, Sarah.

- 20:16 Abimelech was very kind. He called Abraham ‘Sarah's brother’, just like Abraham had said. He showed that people in that place did respect God. So Abraham had been wrong to be afraid.
