Genesis 12:11 YLT

⁹  And Abram journeyeth, going on and journeying towards the south.

¹⁰  And there is a famine in the land, and Abram goeth down towards Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine 'is' grievous in the land;

¹¹  and it cometh to pass as he hath drawn near to enter Egypt, that he saith unto Sarai his wife, 'Lo, I pray thee, I have known that thou 'art' a woman of beautiful appearance;

¹²  and it hath come to pass that the Egyptians see thee, and they have said, 'This 'is' his wife,' and they have slain me, and thee they keep alive:

¹³  say, I pray thee, thou 'art' my sister, so that it is well with me because of thee, and my soul hath lived for thy sake.'
