Genesis 20:4-6

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁴ Now Abim′elech had not approached her; so he said, “Lord, wilt thou slay an innocent people? ⁵ Did he not himself say to me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, ‘He is my brother.’ In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands I have done this.” ⁶ Then God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know that you have done this in the integrity of your heart, and it was I who kept you from sinning against me; therefore I did not let you touch her.
