10 There was a famine in the land, so Abram went down to Egypt to live because the famine was so severe.

11 When he was about to enter Egypt, he told his wife Sarai, |Look, I'm aware that you're a beautiful woman.

12 When the Egyptians see you, they will say, 'She is his wife.' Then they'll kill me, but allow you to live.

13 Please say that you are my sister, so things will go well for me for your sake. That way, you'll be saving my life.|
