26 And Abimelech said, I know not who has done this thing; neither didst thou tell me, neither have I heard of it, but today.
27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them unto Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.
28 And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
29 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?
30 And he said, For these seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand that they may be a witness unto me that I have dug this well.
31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba; because there they swore, both of them.
32 Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba; then Abimelech rose up and Phichol, the prince of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
