Genesis 21:28-30

The Message

^27-28 So the two of them made a covenant. Abraham took sheep and cattle and gave them to Abimelech. Abraham set aside seven sheep from his flock.

²⁹ Abimelech said, “What does this mean? These seven sheep you’ve set aside.”

³⁰ Abraham said, “It means that when you accept these seven sheep, you take it as proof that I dug this well, that it’s my well.”
