Default Plural verbs in 2 Hebrew quotes, are they plural in Greek also?

I don't know Greek, so I was hoping someone would please tell me what two quotes say in the Septuagint. In Hebrew, Genesis 20:13 has a plural verb "caused me to wander" from my father's house. Is the verb plural in the Greek Septuagint?
Also, Genesis 35:7 in Hebrew says "appeared" in plural. Is it plural in Greek?

Also, is the word "G-d" singular or plural in these quotes in Greek?

Thank you for your help.

The verbs are singular as well as the word G-d in both cases.
