25. And he built an altar there, and called on the Name of יהוה, and he pitched his tent there, and the servants of Yitsḥaq dug a well there.
26. And Aḇimeleḵ came to him from Gerar, with Aḥuzzath, one of his friends, and Piḵol the commander of his army.
27. And Yitsḥaq said to them, “Why have you come to me, seeing you have hated me and have sent me away from you?”
28. But they said, “We have clearly seen that יהוה is with you. And we said, ‘Please, let there be an oath between us, between you and us. And let us make a covenant with you,
29. that you do no evil to us, as we have not touched you, and as we have done only good toward you, and have sent you away in peace. You are now blessed by יהוה.’ ”
30. And he made them a feast, and they ate and drank.
31. And they rose early in the morning and swore an oath with one another. And Yitsḥaq let them go, and they departed from him in peace.
32. And on the same day it came to be that the servants of Yitsḥaq came and informed him about the well which they had dug, and said to him, “We have found water.”
33. So he called it Shiḇah. Therefore the name of the city is Be’ĕrsheḇa to this day.
34. And when Ěsaw was forty years old, he took as wives Yehuḏith the daughter of Be’ĕri the Ḥittite, and Basemath the daughter of Ělon the Ḥittite.
35. And they were a bitterness of spirit to Yitsḥaq and Riḇqah.
