15 And the Philistines stopped up all the wells that the servants of his father had dug in the days of Abraham his father. They filled them with earth.
16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from us, for you have become much too powerful for us.”
17 So Isaac departed from there and camped in the valley of Gerar, and settled there.
18 And Isaac dug again the wells of water which they had dug in the days of his father Abraham, which the Philistines had stopped up after the death of Abraham. And he gave to them the same names which his father had given them.
19 And when the servants of Isaac dug in the valley, they found a well of fresh water there.
20 Then the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with the herdsmen of Isaac, saying, “The water is ours.” And he called the name of the well Esek, because they contended with him.
21 And they dug another well, and they quarreled over it also. And he called its name Sitnah.
