Genesis 12:10-15

[10] And there was a famine  in the land:  and Abram  went down  into Egypt  to sojourn  there; for the famine  was grievous  in the land.  [11] And it came to pass, when  he was come near  to enter  into Egypt,  that he said  unto Sarai  his wife,  Behold  now,  I know  that thou art a fair  woman  to look upon:  [12] Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians  shall see  thee, that they shall say,  This is his wife:  and they will kill  me, but they will save thee alive.  [13] Say,  I pray thee,  thou art my sister:  that  it may be well  with me for thy sake; and my soul  shall live  because of thee.  [14] And it came to pass, that, when Abram  was come  into Egypt,  the Egyptians  beheld  the woman  that she was very  fair.  [15] The princes  also of Pharaoh  saw  her, and commended  her before  Pharaoh:  and the woman  was taken  into Pharaoh's  house.
