that you do.
021:023 Now, 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."
021:024 Abraham said, "I will swear."
021:025 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well,
which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
021:026 Abimelech said, "I don't know who has done this thing.
Neither did you tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today."
021:027 Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech.
Those two made a covenant.
021:028 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
021:029 Abimelech said to Abraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs
which you have set by themselves mean?"
021:030 He 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."
021:031 Therefore he called that place Beersheba,{Beersheba can
mean "well of the oath" or "well of seven."} because they
both swore there.
021:032 So 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.
021:033 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there
on the name of Yahweh, the Everlasting God.
021:034 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines
many days.
022:001 It happened after these things, that God tested Abraham,
and said to him, "Abraham!" He said, "Here I am."
