# Did he not himself say to me, 'She is my sister?'
Abimelech used this rhetorical question to remind God of something God already knew. This can be translated as a statement. Alternate translation: "Abraham himself told me, 'She is my sister.'" or "Abraham said that she is his sister." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
# Did he not himself say ... Even she herself
The words "he himself" and "she herself" are used for emphasis to bring attention to Abraham and Sarah and to blame them for what happened. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rpronouns]])
"Did he himself not tell me that she is his sister? Even she herself told me that he is her brother."
# I have done this in the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands
