* For all the wells which his father 's servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father , the Philistines had stopped them , and filled them with earth . * And Abimelech said unto Isaac , Go from us ; for thou art much mightier than we . * And Isaac departed thence , and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar , and dwelt there . * And Isaac digged again the wells of water , which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father ; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham : and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them . * And Isaac 's servants digged in the valley , and found there a well of springing water . * And the herdmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac 's herdmen , saying , The water is ours : and he called the name of the well Esek ; because they strove with him . * And they digged another well , and strove for that also : and he called the name of it Sitnah . * And he removed from thence , and digged another well ; and for that they strove not : and he called the name of it Rehoboth ; and he said , For now the LORD hath made room for us , and we shall be fruitful in the land .
