Abram walked up to the two guards. Both had a bow and arrows and a tall helmet. Abram approached them quietly.
" State your business".
" I have come with my family to seek shelter from the famine in Canaan" he said as he stared at the men. " We wish only to stay for a short while".
One of the young guards looked toward the caravan. " How many are in your caravan?".
" One hundred and fifty men, women and children".
" What else do you have?" asked the other young guard.
" Just a few sheep and cattle".
One of the guards stared at the group of women and children. " Do you have any pretty women in your caravan?".
Abram stepped in front of Sarai so they would not see her.
The guards studied the women and then let the caravan through.
