Revised Standard Version

²⁹ And Abim′elech said to Abraham, “What is the meaning of these seven ewe lambs which you have set apart?” ³⁰ He said, “These seven ewe lambs you will take from my hand, that you may be a witness for me that I dug this well.” ³¹ Therefore that place was called Beer-sheba;^[a] because there both of them swore an oath.
