So Isaac went from thence, - and encamped in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there. And Isaac again digged the wells of water which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father, and which the Philistines stopped up after the death of Abraham, - and he called their names, after the names which his father called them. And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, - and found there a well of living water. And the herdmen of Gerar disputed with the herdmen of Isaac saying, Ours, is thee, water! So he called the name of the well Esek, because they had stirred up a quarrel with him. And they digged another well, and they disputed over that also, - so he called the name thereof Sitnah. And he moved on from thence and digged another well, and they disputed not for it, - so he called the name thereof. Rehoboth, and said, For, now, hath Yahweh made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
