Abraham Answers Avimelech on Sarah as Sister and Wife

"Only there is no fear of God in this place" (Genesis 20:11) — and if they know that she is my wife, they will kill me on her account. And Abraham also said to him: Why do you blame me, that if I had said she is my wife and not my sister — for had you known she was my wife you would not have taken her; and even though I said to you "she is my sister," you should have considered regarding me that perhaps she is my wife — so why [did you take her]? And even were it true that she is my sister, I was able to marry her, since she is my sister on the father's side and not on the mother's side.
