30 Abraham told him, “I want you to accept these seven lambs as proof that I dug this well.”
31 So they called the place Beersheba, because they made a treaty there.
32 When the treaty was completed, Abimelech and his army commander Phicol went back to the land of the Philistines.
33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba and worshipped the eternal Lord God.
34 Then Abraham lived a long time as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines.
