27 Et Abraham prit des brebis et des bœufs, qu’il donna à Abimélec; et ils firent tous deux alliance.

29 Et Abimélec dit à Abraham: Qu’est-ce que ces sept jeunes brebis, que tu as mises à part?
30 Il répondit: Tu accepteras de ma main ces sept brebis, afin que cela me serve de témoignage que j’ai creusé ce puits.
