Genesis 26:12-22
12And IsaacH3327 sowedH2232 in that landH776, and foundH4672 in the same yearH8141 a hundredfold: and Jehovah blessedH1288 him. 13And the manH376 waxed greatH1431, and grewH1431 more and more until he becameH1431 veryH3966 greatH1431: 14and he had possessions of flocksH6629, and possessions of herdsH1241, and a greatH7227 household: and the PhilistinesH6430 envied him. 15Now all the wellsH875 which his father’sH1 servantsH5650 had digged in the daysH3117 of AbrahamH85 his fatherH1, the PhilistinesH6430 had stoppedH5640, and filledH4390 with earthH6083. 16And AbimelechH40 saidH559 unto IsaacH3327, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we. 17And IsaacH3327 departed thence, and encampedH2583 in the valley of GerarH1642, and dweltH3427 there.
18And IsaacH3327 digged again the wellsH875 of waterH4325, which they had digged in the daysH3117 of AbrahamH85 his fatherH1; for the PhilistinesH6430 had stoppedH5640 them after the deathH4194 of AbrahamH85: and he calledH7121 their namesH8034 after the namesH8034 by which his fatherH1 had calledH7121 them. 19And Isaac’s servantsH5650 digged in the valley, and foundH4672 there a wellH875 of springing waterH4325. 20And the herdsmen of GerarH1642 strove with Isaac’s herdsmen, sayingH559, The waterH4325 is ours: and he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the wellH875 Esek, because they contendedH7378 with him. 21And they digged another wellH875, and they strove for that alsoH1571: and he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of it Sitnah. 22And he removed from thence, and digged another wellH875; and for that they strove not: and he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of it RehobothH7344; and he saidH559, For nowH6258 Jehovah hath madeH7337 room for us, and we shall be fruitfulH6509 in the landH776.
