Genesis 21:30-34 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

30. But he said, "You will receive seven female lambs from my hand, so that they may be a testimony for me, that I dug this well."

31. For this reason, that place was called Beersheba, because there both of them did swear.

32. And they initiated a pact on behalf of the well of oath.

33. Then Abimelech and Phicol, the leader of his army, rose up, and they returned to the land of the Palestinians. In truth, Abraham planted a grove in Beersheba, and there he called upon the name of the Lord God Eternal.

34. And he was a settler in the land of the Palestinians for many days.
