Bereshis 21:30-34 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

30. And he said, For these sheva ewe lambs shalt thou accept of my hand, that they may be a witness unto me, that I have dug this well.

31. Therefore he called that place Beer-Sheva; because there they swore an oath both of them.

32. Thus they made a brit at Beer-Sheva: then Avimelech rose up, and Phichol the sar tzeva of his, and they returned into eretz Pelishtim.

33. And Avraham planted an eshel (tamarisk tree) in Beer-Sheva, and called there on the Shem of Hashem El Olam.

34. And Avraham sojourned in eretz Pelishtim yamim rabbim.
