31 Ils se levèrent de bon matin, et se lièrent l’un à l’autre par un serment. Isaac les laissa partir, et ils le quittèrent en paix.

32 Ce même jour, des serviteurs d’Isaac vinrent lui parler du puits qu’ils creusaient, et lui dirent: Nous avons trouvé de l’eau.

33 Et il l’appela Schiba. C’est pourquoi on a donné à la ville le nom de Beer-Schéba, jusqu’à ce jour.

34 Ésaü, âgé de quarante ans, prit pour femmes Judith, fille de Beéri, le Héthien, et Basmath, fille d’Élon, le Héthien.
