Abimelech replied, ‘I don’t know who did this thing. You didn’t report anything to me, so I hadn’t heard about it until today.’
and there was quarrelling between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. (At that time the Canaanites and the Perizzites were living in the land.)
But Abraham complained to Abimelech because of the well that Abimelech’s servants had seized.
Abraham took flocks and herds and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made a covenant.
