Genesis 16:5

Then Sarai said to Abram, "It is your fault that all this injustice (violation, lawlessness, terror, destructive force – Hebr. chamas) has befallen me. I allowed my servant to lie with you, but when she saw that she was pregnant, she began to despise me. Let the Lord judge between me and you." [The last part can also be translated: "Let God punish you for this."]
