Matthew(i)
22 And it chaunced the same season, that Abimelech and Phicol his chefe captaine spake vnto Abraham sayinge: God is with the in al that thou doyst.
23 Now therfore swere vnto me euen here by god, that thou wylt not hurt me nor my chyldren, nor my chyldrens chyldren. But that thou shalt deale wyth me & the contre where thou art a straunger, acordynge vnto the kyndnesse that I haue sheweth the.
24 Then sayd Abraham: I wyl swere.
25 And Abraham rebuked Abimelech for a well of water, whych Abimelechs seruauntes had taken awaye.
26 And Abimelech answered I wyst not who dyd it: Also thou toldest me not, nether herde I of it, but thys daye.
27 And Abraham toke shepe and oxen & gaue them vnto Abimelech. And they made both of them a bonde together.
28 And Abraham set .vij. lambes by them selues.
29 And Abimelech sayd vnto Abraham: what meane these .vij. lambes which thou hast set by them selues.
30 And he auswered .vij. lambes shalt thou take of my hand, that it maye be a wytnesse vnto me, that I haue dygged thys well:
31 Wherfore the place is called Berseba, because they sware both of them.
32 Thus made they a bonde to gether at Berseba. Than Abimelech & Phicol his chefe Captayne rose vp & turned agayne vnto the lande of the Philistines.
