Tree Of Life Version

Genesis 21:19-24 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

19. Then God opened her eyes and she saw a well of water, and she went and filled the water skin, and gave the boy a drink.

20. God was with the boy and he grew. He dwelled in the wilderness and became an archer.

21. He dwelled in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother took a wife for him from the land of Egypt.

22. Now it came about at that same time that Abimelech—with Phicol the commander of his army---said to Abraham, “God is with you in all that you do.

23. So now, make a pledge to me here, by God, that you will not violate your word with me or with my descendants or with my offspring. As I have shown loyalty to you, show the same to me, and to the land in which you have lived as an outsider.”

24. Abraham said, “I make a pledge.”
