Genesis 21:24-29 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

24. And Abraham said, "I will swear."

25. And he reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which his servants had taken away by force.

26. And Abimelech responded, "I do not know who did this thing, but you also did not reveal it to me, nor have I heard of it, before today."

27. And so Abraham took sheep and oxen, and he gave them to Abimelech. And both of them struck a pact.

28. And Abraham set aside seven female lambs from the flock.

29. Abimelech said to him, "What purpose have these seven female lambs, which you have caused to stand separately?"
