Genesis 26:18 in Context — Genesis 26
16 Et Abimélec dit à Isaac: Va-t’en de chez nous, car tu es beaucoup plus puissant que nous.
17 Isaac partit de là, et campa dans la vallée de Guérar, où il s’établit.
18 Isaac creusa de nouveau les puits d’eau qu’on avait creusés du temps d’Abraham, son père, et qu’avaient comblés les Philistins après la mort d’Abraham; et il leur donna les mêmes noms que son père leur avait donnés.
19 Les serviteurs d’Isaac creusèrent encore dans la vallée, et y trouvèrent un puits d’eau vive.
20 Les bergers de Guérar querellèrent les bergers d’Isaac, en disant: L’eau est à nous. Et il donna au puits le nom d’Ések, parce qu’ils s’étaient disputés avec lui.
