Please say that you are my sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that my soul may live because of you."

He dealt well with Abram for her sake. He had sheep, cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, and camels.

Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well-watered everywhere, before Yahweh destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of Yahweh, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.

Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.

I will get a morsel of bread so you can refresh your heart. After that you may go your way, now that you have come to your servant." They said, "Very well, do as you have said."

Now Abraham and Sarah were old, well advanced in age. Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.

God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the bottle with water, and gave the boy drink.

Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.

He said, "You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well."

Abraham was old, and well stricken in age. Yahweh had blessed Abraham in all things.

He made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time that women go out to draw water.

Now all the wells which his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped, and filled with earth.

Isaac dug again the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Abraham his father. For the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham. He called their names after the names by which his father had called them.

Isaac's servants dug in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.

The herdsmen of Gerar argued with Isaac's herdsmen, saying, "The water is ours." He called the name of the well Esek, because they contended with him.

They dug another well, and they argued over that, also. He called its name Sitnah.

He left that place, and dug another well. They didn't argue over that one. He called it Rehoboth. He said, "For now Yahweh has made room for us, and we will be fruitful in the land."

He built an altar there, and called on the name of Yahweh, and pitched his tent there. There Isaac's servants dug a well.

It happened the same day, that Isaac's servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had dug, and said to him, "We have found water."

He looked, and behold, a well in the field, and, behold, three flocks of sheep lying there by it. For out of that well they watered the flocks. The stone on the well's mouth was large.

There all the flocks were gathered. They rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the sheep, and put the stone again on the well's mouth in its place.

He said to them, "Is it well with him?" They said, "It is well. See, Rachel, his daughter, is coming with the sheep."

They said, "We can't, until all the flocks are gathered together, and they roll the stone from the well's mouth. Then we water the sheep."

It happened, when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban, his mother's brother, that Jacob went near, and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.

He said to him, "Go now, see whether it is well with your brothers, and well with the flock; and bring me word again." So he sent him out of the valley of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.

He left all that he had in Joseph's hand. He didn't concern himself with anything, except for the food which he ate. Joseph was well-built and handsome.

God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied, and grew very mighty.

Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and lived in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well.

The anger of Yahweh was kindled against Moses, and he said, "What about Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well. Also, behold, he comes forth to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.

Moses said, "You have spoken well. I will see your face again no more."

He who blasphemes the name of Yahweh, he shall surely be put to death; all the congregation shall certainly stone him: the foreigner as well as the native-born, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.

"Please let us pass through your land: we will not pass through field or through vineyard, neither will we drink of the water of the wells: we will go along the king's highway; we will not turn aside to the right hand nor to the left, until we have passed your border."

From there they traveled to Beer: that is the well of which Yahweh said to Moses, "Gather the people together, and I will give them water."

Then sang Israel this song: "Spring up, well; sing to it:

the well, which the princes dug, which the nobles of the people dug, with the scepter, and with their poles." From the wilderness [they traveled] to Mattanah;

"Let me pass through your land: we will not turn aside into field, or into vineyard; we will not drink of the water of the wells: we will go by the king's highway, until we have passed your border."

Take wise men of understanding and well known according to your tribes, and I will make them heads over you."

When Joab had come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, and they brought him back from the well of Sirah; but David didn't know it.
