rsv Genesis:21:22-32
rsv@Genesis:21:22 @ At that time Abim'elech and Phicol the commander of his army said to Abraham, "God is with you in all that you do;
rsv@Genesis:21:23 @ now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me or with my offspring or with my posterity, but as I have dealt loyally with you, you will deal with me and with the land where you have sojourned."
rsv@Genesis:21:24 @ And Abraham said, "I will swear."
rsv@Genesis:21:25 @ When Abraham complained to Abim'elech about a well of water which Abim'elech's servants had seized,
rsv@Genesis:21:26 @ Abim'elech said, "I do not know who has done this thing; you did not tell me, and I have not heard of it until today."
rsv@Genesis:21:27 @ So Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abim'elech, and the two men made a covenant.
rsv@Genesis:21:28 @ Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock apart.
rsv@Genesis:21:29 @ And Abim'elech said to Abraham, "What is the meaning of these seven ewe lambs which you have set apart?"
rsv@Genesis:21:30 @ He said, "These seven ewe lambs you will take from my hand, that you may be a witness for me that I dug this well."
rsv@Genesis:21:31 @ Therefore that place was called Beer-sheba; because there both of them swore an oath.
rsv@Genesis:21:32 @ So they made a covenant at Beer-sheba. Then Abim'elech and Phicol the commander of his army rose up and returned to the land of the Philistines.
