Genesis 21:25-33

[25] And Abraham  reproved  Abimelech  because  of a well  of water,  which Abimelech's  servants  had violently taken away.  [26] And Abimelech  said,  I wot  not who hath done  this thing:  neither  didst thou tell  me, neither  yet heard  I of it, but  to day.  [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  [29] And Abimelech  said  unto Abraham,  mean these seven  ewe lambs  which thou hast set  [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 digged  this well.  [31] Wherefore he called  that place  Beersheba;  because there they sware  both of them.  [32] Thus they made  a covenant  at Beersheba:  then Abimelech  rose up,  and Phichol  the chief captain  of his host,  and they returned  into the land  of the Philistines.  [33] And Abraham planted  a grove  in Beersheba,  and called  there on the name  of the LORD,  the everlasting  God.
