Bereshis 26:14-19 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

14. For he had possession of tzon, and possession of herds, and many avadim; and the Pelishtim envied him.

15. For all the wells which avdei aviv had dug in the days of Avraham aviv, the Pelishtim had stopped them up, and filled them with dirt.

16. And Avimelech said unto Yitzchak, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we.

17. And Yitzchak departed from there, and encamped in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.

18. And Yitzchak dug again the be'erot hamayim (wells of water), which they had dug in the days of Avraham aviv; for the Pelishtim had stopped them up after the mot Avraham; and he called their shemot after the shemot by which his av had called them.

19. And avdei Yitzchak dug in the valley, and found there a well of mayim chayyim.
