Genesis 26:20-22
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
20 the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac’s herdsmen, saying, “The water is ours.” So he called the name of the well Esek,[a] because they contended with him. 21 Then they dug another well, and they quarreled over that also; so he called its name Sitnah.[b] 22 And he moved from there and dug another well, and over that they did not quarrel; so he called its name Reho′both,[c] saying, “For now the Lord has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.”
