28. and Abraham setteth seven Lambs of the flock by themselves.
29. And Abimelech saith unto Abraham, `What [are] they--these seven lambs which thou hast set by themselves?'
30. And he saith, `For--the seven lambs thou dost accept from my hand, so that it becometh a witness for me that I have digged this well;'
31. therefore hath he called that place `Beer-Sheba,' for there have both of them sworn.
32. And they make a covenant in Beer-Sheba, and Abimelech riseth--Phichol also, head of his host--and they turn back unto the land of the Philistines;
33. and [Abraham] planteth a tamarisk in Beer-Sheba, and preacheth there in the name of Jehovah, God age-during;
34. and Abraham sojourneth in the land of the Philistines many days.
