18. Arise, take up the boy, and hold him by the hand: for I will make him a great nation.
19. And God opened her eyes: and she saw a well of water, and went and filled the bottle, and gave the boy to drink.
20. And God was with him: and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became a young man, an archer.
21. And he dwelt in the wilderness of Pharan, and his mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
22. At the same time Abimelech, and Phicol the general of his army said to Abraham: God is with thee in all that thou dost.
23. Swear therefore by God, that thou wilt not hurt me, nor my posterity, nor my stock: but according to the kindness that I have done to thee, thou shalt do to me, and to the land wherein thou hast lived a stranger.
24. And Abraham said: I will swear.
25. And he reproved Abimelech for a well of water, which his servants had taken away by force.
26. And Abimelech answered: I knew not who did this thing: and thou didst not tell me, and I heard not of it till to day.
27. And Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech: and both of them made a league.
28. And Abraham set apart seven ewe lambs of the flock.
29. And Abimelech said to him: What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set apart?
30. But he said: Thou shalt take seven ewe lambs at my hand: that they may be a testimony for me, that I dug this well.
31. Therefore that place was called Bersabee: because both of them did swear.
32. And they made a league for the well of oath.
