Genesis 26:19-21

New International Reader's Version

¹⁹ Isaac’s servants dug wells in the valley. There they discovered fresh water. ²⁰ But the people of Gerar who took care of their own herds argued with the people who took care of Isaac’s herds. “The water is ours!” the people of Gerar said. So Isaac named the well Esek. That’s because they argued with him. ²¹ Then Isaac’s servants dug another well. They argued about that one too. So he named it Sitnah.
