22 It happened at that time, that Avimelekh and Pikhol the captain of his host spoke to Avraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do.
22
And it cometh to pass at that time that Abimelech speaketh -- Phichol also, head of his host -- unto Abraham, saying, `God [is] with thee in all that thou art doing;
23 Now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have sojourned."
23
and now, swear to me by God here: thou dost not lie to me, or to my continuator, or to my successor; according to the kindness which I have done with thee thou dost with me, and with the land in which thou hast sojourned.'
24 Avraham said, "I will swear."

And Abraham saith, `I -- I do swear.'
25 Avraham complained to Avimelekh because of a water well, which Avimelekh's servants had violently taken away.

26 Avimelekh said, I don't know who has done this thing. Neither did you tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today."
26
and Abimelech saith, `I have not known who hath done this thing, and even thou didst not declare to me, and I also, I have not heard save to-day.'
27 Avraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Avimelekh. Those two made a covenant.

and Abraham setteth seven Lambs of the flock by themselves.
29 Avimelekh said to Avraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?"
29
And Abimelech saith unto Abraham, `What [are] they -- these seven lambs which thou hast set by themselves?'
30 He said, "You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well."
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.
