16. Then Abimelech said to Isaac, "Move away from us. You have become too powerful for us."
17. So Isaac moved away from there. He camped in the Valley of Gerar and settled there.
18. Isaac opened up the wells again. They had been dug in the time of his father Abraham. The Philistines had stopped them up after Abraham died. Isaac gave the wells the same names his father had given them.
19. Isaac's servants dug for wells in the valley. There they discovered a well of fresh water.
