Genesis 16:5
βAnd Sarai said unto Abram, My wrong be upon thee: I have given my maid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: the Lord judge between me and thee.β
KJV
Read in Genesis 16Meaning
Sarai tells Abram that the wrong she experiences is his responsibility and calls on the LORD to judge between them.
Read carefully
The verse communicates Sarai's accusation from within the conflict; it should not be treated as an objective verdict assigning all blame to one person.
Reflection
When a plan breaks down, accusation can replace accountability; wisdom requires attention to both responsibility and the vulnerable people caught in the conflict.
