Genesis 26:12-16

12Now Isaac sowed in that land and 1reaped in the same year a hundred times as much. And 2the Lord blessed him,

13and the man 3became rich, and continued to grow 4richer until he became very 5wealthy;

14for 6he had possessions of flocks 7and herds, and a great household, so that the Philistines envied him.

15Now 8all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of his father Abraham, the Philistines stopped up 9by filling them with dirt.

16Then Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from us, for you are 1011too powerful for us.”
