Gen 20:13 [Samaritan Pentateuch]

ויהי כאשר התעה אתי אלהים מבית אבי ומארץ מולדתי ואמר לה זה חסדך אשר תעשין עמדי אל כל המקום אשר נבוא שמה אמרי לי אחי הוא׃

Gen 20:13 [Masoretic Text]

וַיְהִ֞י כַּאֲשֶׁ֧ר הִתְע֣וּ אֹתִ֗י אֱלֹהִים֮ מִבֵּ֣ית אָבִי֒ וָאֹמַ֣ר לָ֔הּ זֶ֣ה חַסְדֵּ֔ךְ אֲשֶׁ֥ר תַּעֲשִׂ֖י עִמָּדִ֑י אֶ֤ל כָּל־הַמָּקֹום֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר נָבֹ֣וא שָׁ֔מָּה אִמְרִי־לִ֖י אָחִ֥י הֽוּא׃

And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said to her, ‘This is your kindness which you shall show to me: in every place where we come, say of me, “He is my brother.”’”
