12 Isaac sowed a crop in that region and reaped a hundredfold the same year. Since the Lord blessed him,
13 he became richer and richer all the time, until he was very wealthy.
14 He acquired flocks and herds, and a great work force, and so the Philistines became envious of him.
15 The Philistines had stopped up and filled with dirt all the wells that his father’s servants had dug back in the days of his father Abraham.
16 So Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from us; you have become far too numerous for us.”
17 Isaac left there and camped in the Wadi Gerar where he stayed.
18 Isaac reopened the wells which his father’s servants had dug back in the days of his father Abraham and which the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham’s death; he gave them names like those that his father had given them.
