23 Now therefore, (A)swear[a] to me by God that you will not deal falsely with me, with my offspring, or with my posterity; but that according to the kindness that I have done to you, you will do to me and to the land in which you have dwelt.”
24 And Abraham said, “I will swear.”

29 Then Abimelech asked Abraham, (D)“What is the meaning of these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves?”
30 And he said, “You will take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that (E)they may be my witness that I have dug this well.” 31 Therefore he (F)called that place [c]Beersheba, because the two of them swore an oath there.
