Genesis 12:18–20

12:18 So Pharaoh summoned Abram and said, “What is this46 you have done to me? Why didn’t you tell me that she was your wife? 12:19 Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’ so that I took her47 to be my wife?48 Here is your wife!49 Take her and go!”50 12:20 Pharaoh gave his men orders about Abram,51 and so they expelled him, along with his wife and all his possessions.

48	tn Heb “to me for a wife.”
49	tn Heb “Look, your wife!”
50	tn Heb “take and go.”
51	tn Heb “him”; the referent (Abram) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
