22 And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech spoke, and Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, to Abraam, saying, God is with thee in all things, whatsoever thou mayest do.
23 Now therefore swear to me by God that thou wilt not injure me, nor my seed, nor my name, but according to the righteousness which I have performed with thee thou shalt deal with me, and with the land in which thou hast sojourned.
24 And Abraam said, I will swear.
25 And Abraam reproved Abimelech because of the wells of water, which the servants of Abimelech took away.
26 And Abimelech said to him, I know not who has done this thing to thee, neither didst thou tell it me, neither heard I it but only to-day.
27 And Abraam took sheep and calves, and gave them to Abimelech, and both made a covenant.
28 And Abraam set seven ewe-lambs by themselves.
29 And Abimelech said to Abraam, What are these seven ewe-lambs which thou hast set alone?
30 And Abraam said, Thou shalt receive the seven ewe-lambs of me, that they may be for me as a witness, that I dug this well.
31 Therefore he named the name of that place, The Well of the Oath, for there they both swore.
32 And they made a covenant at the well of the oath. And there rose up Abimelech, Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the commander-in-chief of his army, and they returned to the land of the Phylistines.
