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.
22 Then he moved from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it. And he called its name Rehoboth, and said, “Now Yahweh has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.”
23 And from there he went up to Beersheba.
