27 The toke Abraham shepe and oxen, and gaue them vnto Abimelech, and they both made a bonde together.

28 And Abraham set seuen lambes by them selues.

29 Then sayde Abimelech vnto Abraha: What meane those seuen lambes, which thou hast set by them selues?

30 He answered: seue lambes shalt thou take of my hande, that they maye be wytnes vnto me, that I haue dygged this well.

31 Therfore is the place called Berseba, because they sware there both together.
