Genesis 21:22–33

²²And it came to pass at that time, that ^yAbimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, ^zGod is with thee in all that thou doest: ²³now therefore ^aswear unto me here by God that thou wilt not deal falsely with me, nor ^bwith my son, nor ^bwith my son’s son: but according to the kindness that I have done unto thee, thou shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein thou hast sojourned. ²⁴And Abraham said, I will swear. ²⁵And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which Abimelech’s servants ^chad violently taken away. ²⁶And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I of it, but to day. ²⁷And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and both of them ^dmade a covenant. ²⁸And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves. ²⁹And Abimelech said unto Abraham, ^eWhat mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves? ³⁰And he said, For these seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that they may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well. ³¹Wherefore he ^fcalled that place Beer-sheba; because there they sware both of them. ³²Thus they made a covenant at Beer-sheba: then Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines. ³³And Abraham planted a grove in Beer-sheba, and ^gcalled there on the name of the Lord, ^hthe everlasting God.
