Genesis 20:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, [a]She is my sister. Then Abimelech king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, [b]thou art but dead, because of the woman, which thou hast taken: for she is a man’s wife.
4 (Notwithstanding Abimelech had not yet come near her) And he said, Lord, wilt thou slay even [c]the righteous nation?
