And Abimelech said, “I do not know who has done this. You did not tell me, and I have not heard of it until today.”
And there was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites dwelt in the land at that time.
Then Abraham complained to Abimelech about a well of water that Abimelech’s servants had violently seized.
So Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made a covenant.
