GEN 21:22–32, engwebp
²²At that time, Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, “God is with you in all that you do.
²³Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner.”
²⁴Abraham said, “I will swear.”
²⁵Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away.
²⁶Abimelech said, “I don’t know who has done this thing. You didn’t tell me, and I didn’t hear of it until today.”
²⁷Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.
²⁸Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
²⁹Abimelech said to Abraham, “What do these seven ewe lambs, which you have set by themselves, mean?”
³⁰He said, “You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well.”
³¹Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore an oath there.
³²So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
