fir ibraaheem vahan se kooch kar daakkhian desh men akar kadesh aur shoor ke beech men tthara, aur garar men rahane laga.
2 aur ibraaheem apanee patnee sara ke vishay men kahane laga, ki vah meree baahin haai : so garar ke raja abeemelek ne doot bhejakar sara ko bulava liya.
3 rat ko parameshvar ne svapn men abeemelek ke pas akar kaha, sun, jis sree ko too ne rakh liya haai, usake karan too mar jaaega, kyonki vah suhaagin haai.
4 parantu abeemelek usake pas n gaya tha : so us ne kaha, he prabhu, kya too nirdosh jaati ka bhee ghaat karega ?
5 kya usee ne svayan mujh se naheen kaha, ki vah meree baahin haai ? aur us sree ne bhee ap kaha, ki vah mera bhai haai : maain ne to apane man kee khrai aur apane vyavahar kee sachchai se yah kam kiya.
6 parameshvar ne us se svapn men kaha, ha, maain bhee janata hoon ki apane man kee khrai se too ne yah kam kiya haai aur maain ne tujhe rok bhee rakha ki too mere virooddh pap n kare : isee karan maain ne tujh ko use choone naheen diya.
7 so ab us puroosh kee patnee ko use faer de kyonki vah nabee haai, aur tere liye praarthna karega, aur too jeeta rahega : par yadi too usako n faer de to jan rak, ki to, aur tere jitane log haai, sab nishchay mar jaaenge.
8 bihan ko abeemelek ne tadke uttkar apane sab karmachaariyon ko bulavakar ye sab baten sunai : aur ve log bahut dr gaae.
9 tab abeemelek ne ibraaheem ko bulavakar kaha, too ne ham se yah kya kiya haai ? aur maain ne tera kya bigada tha, ki too ne mere aur mere rajy ke upar aeesa bada pap dal diya haai ? too ne mujh se vah kam kiya haai jo uchit n tha.
10 fir abeemelek ne ibraaheem se poochha, too ne kya samajhkar aeesa kam kiya ?
11 ibraaheem ne kaha, maain ne yah socha tha, ki is sthan men parameshvar ka kuchh bhee bhy n hoga so ye log meree patnee ke karan mera ghaat karenge.
12 aur fir bhee sachamuch vah meree baahin haai, vah mere pita kee bettee to haai par meree mata kee bettee naheen fir vah meree patnee ho gai.
13 aur aeesa hua ki jab parameshvar ne mujhe apane pita ka ghar chhodkar nikalane kee agyaa dee, tab maain ne us se kaha, itanee krapa tujhe mujh par karanee hogee : ki ham donon jahan jahan jaaen vahan vahan too mere vishay men kahana, ki yah mera bhai haai.
14 tab abeemelek ne bhed-bakaree, gaya-baail, aur dasa-dasiyan lekar ibraaheem ko dee, aur usakee patnee sara ko bhee use faer diya.
15 aur abeemelek ne kaha, dek, mera desh tere samhane haai jahan tujhe bhave vahan raha.
16 aur sara se us ne kaha, dek, maain ne tere bhai ko roope ke aek hajar ttukade diae haain : dek, tere sare sangiyon ke samhane vahee teree ankhon ka parda banega, aur sabhon ke samhane too tteek hogee.
17 tab ibraaheem ne yahova se praarthna kee, aur yahova ne abeemelek, aur usakee patnee, aur daasiyon ko changa kiya aur ve janane lageen.
18 kyonaki yahova ne ibraaheem kee patnee sara ke karan abeemelek ke ghar kee sab striayon kee kokhon ko pooree reeati se band kar diya tha..
