Gen. 12:19      Gen. 13:1

Genesis 12:20

Pharaoh gave orders about him [Abram] to his men, and they took him and his wife and all that belonged to him.
[The text does not make it entirely clear whether the plagues prevent Pharaoh from consummating his marriage to Sarai. Abram is given sheep, cattle, servants and maidservants, donkeys and camels, which suggests that he is being paid for her. At the same time, Pharaoh becomes angry at what Abram has done when he is struck by the plagues. When Abram similarly betrays Sarai once again (Gen. 20:17–18), it seems that some kind of illness prevented the women from having children, which may be a parallel to the plagues in Gen. 12:17 that afflict Pharaoh, suggesting that God preserved Sarai.]
