Genesis 20:3-5

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³ But God came to Abim′elech in a dream by night, and said to him, “Behold, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken; for she is a man’s wife.” ⁴ Now Abim′elech had not approached her; so he said, “Lord, wilt thou slay an innocent people? ⁵ Did he not himself say to me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, ‘He is my brother.’ In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands I have done this.”
