Genesis 21:31-33

31Therefore he called that place 1Beersheba, because there the two of them took an oath.

32So they made a covenant at Beersheba; and Abimelech and Phicol, the commander of his army, arose and returned to the land of the Philistines.

33Abraham planted a tamarisk tree at Beersheba, and there 2he called on the name of the Lord, the 3Everlasting God.
