American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
And Isaac sowed in that land, and found in the same year a hundredfold: and Jehovah blessed him.
And the man waxed great, and grew more and more until he became very great:
and he had possessions of flocks, and possessions of herds, and a great household: and the Philistines envied him.
Now all the wells which his father's servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped, and filled with earth.
And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we.
And Isaac departed thence, and encamped 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 {Hebrew: living.}springing water.
And the herdsmen of Gerar strove with Isaac's herdsmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well {That is, Contention.}Esek, because they contended with him.
And they digged another well, and they strove for that also: and he called the name of it {That is, Enmity.}Sitnah.
And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it {That is, Broad places, or, Room.}Rehoboth; and he said, For now Jehovah hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age,And apply thyself to that which their fathers have searched out
Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee,And utter words out of their heart?
But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
