Genesis 21:22-32
22And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech, and Phichol the captain of his host, spoke to Abraham, saying, 1God is with thee in all that thou doest.
23And now swear to me here by 2God that thou wilt not deal deceitfully with me, nor with my son, nor with my grandson. According to the kindness that I have done to thee, thou shalt do to me, and to the land in which thou sojournest.
24And Abraham said, I will swear.
25And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water that Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
26And Abimelech said, I do not know who has done this, neither hast thou told me [of it], neither have I heard [of it] but to-day.
27And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.
28And Abraham set seven ewe-lambs of the flock by themselves.
29And Abimelech said to Abraham, What [mean] these seven ewe-lambs, these which thou hast set by themselves?
30And he said, That thou take the seven ewe-lambs of my hand, that they may be a witness to me that I have dug this well.
31Therefore he called that place Beer-sheba, because there they had sworn, both of them.
32And they made a covenant at Beer-sheba. And Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the captain of his host, and returned into the land of the Philistines.
