Genesis 26:19-25
19And Isaac’sH3327 servantsH5650 diggedH2658 in the valleyH5158, and foundH4672 there a wellH875 of springingH2416 waterH4325.1
20And the herdmenH7462 of GerarH1642 did striveH7378 with Isaac’sH3327 herdmenH7462, sayingH559, The waterH4325 is ours: and he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the wellH875 EsekH6230; because they stroveH6229 with him.2
21And they diggedH2658 anotherH312 wellH875, and stroveH7378 for that also: and he calledH7121 the name of itH8034 SitnahH7856.3
22And he removedH6275 from thence, and diggedH2658 anotherH312 wellH875; and for that they stroveH7378 not: and he calledH7121 the name of itH8034 RehobothH7344; and he saidH559, For nowH6258 YhwhH3068 hath made roomH7337 for us, and we shall be fruitfulH6509 in the landH776.4
23And he went upH5927 from thence to Beer–shebaH884.
24And YhwhH3068 appearedH7200 unto him the same nightH3915, and saidH559, I am the GodH430 of AbrahamH85 thy fatherH1: fearH3372 not, for I am withH854 thee, and will blessH1288 thee, and multiplyH7235 thy seedH2233 for my servantH5650 Abraham’sH85 sake.
25And he buildedH1129 an altarH4196 there, and calledH7121 upon the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068, and pitchedH5186 his tentH168 there: and there Isaac’sH3327 servantsH5650 diggedH3738 a wellH875.
