Genesis 20:5-7
Expanded Bible
5 ·Abraham himself told [L Did he not tell…?] me, ‘This woman is my sister,’ and ·she also said [L did she not also say…?], ‘He is my brother.’ I ·am innocent and did not know I was doing anything wrong [L did this with a pure conscience/blameless heart and innocent hands].”
6 Then God said to Abimelech in the dream, “Yes, I know you did ·not realize what you were doing [this with a pure conscience/L blameless heart]. So I ·did not allow you to sin [restrained you from sinning] against me and touch her. 7 Give ·Abraham [L the man] his wife back. He is a prophet [C one who interceded for others]. He will pray for you, and you will not die. But if you do not give Sarah back, you and all ·your family [L who belong to you] will surely die.”

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)
