For he had great wealth of flocks and herds and great numbers of servants; so that the Philistines were full of envy.

And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go away from us, for you are stronger than we are.
So Isaac went away from there, and put up his tents in the valley of Gerar, making his living-place there.
And he made again the water-holes which had been made in the days of Abraham his father, and which had been stopped up by the Philistines; and he gave them the names which his father had given them.
Now Isaac's servants made holes in the valley, and came to a spring of flowing water.
