Genesis 26:21 in Context — Genesis 26

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.

21 Ses serviteurs creusèrent un autre puits, au sujet duquel on chercha aussi une querelle; et il l’appela Sitna.

22 Il se transporta de là, et creusa un autre puits, pour lequel on ne chercha pas querelle; et il l’appela Rehoboth, car, dit-il, l’Éternel nous a maintenant mis au large, et nous prospérerons dans le pays.

23 Il remonta de là à Beer-Schéba.
