“Et aquel poço cõ seu termyno ha [este] nome por tres rrazões: aprimeyra que Bersabee tanto quer dizer cõmo poço [de] fartura, por que Agar et Ysmael beberõ del et fartarõse; asegunda he que Bersabee tanto quer mostrar ẽno ebrayco, segundo dizẽ Jeronymo et mẽestre Pedro, cõmo poço de sete, por que Abraã dou aly aquelas sete cordeyras aAbymalec em testemoyo da entrega que rreçebeo del; aterçeyra he outrossy que Bersabee tanto quer dizer cõmo poço de jura por que Abraã et Abymalec firmarõ aly seu amor et jurarõ; et avemos aqui dito que Bersabee ẽno ebrayco he por estas tres coussas: fartura, et [sete], et jura”
And that well with its territory has this names because of three reasons: the fist is that Beersheba means something such as well of abundance [satiety?], because Hagar and Ishmael drank from it and were sated; the second is that Beersheba is in Hebrew, according to Jerome and Master Peter, well of seven, because there Abraham gave Abimelech those seven ewe lambs; the third is also that Beersheba means something such as well of the oath, because Abraham and Abimelech confirmed there their friendship and swore; and so we have said here that Beersheba means in Hebrew these three things: abundance [satiety?], and seven, and oath
