And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I {of it}, but to day.

And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.

And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What {mean} these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?

And he said, For {these} seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that they may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well.
