Génesis 21

Daher nannte man den Ort "Beer-Seba", weil sie einander dort geschworen haben. (1) d.i. Schwurbrunnen.

Por esto llamó á aquel lugar Beer-seba; porque allí juraron ambos.

Wherefore he called that place Beer-sheba; because there they sware both of them.

Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore an oath there.
