Genesis 26:19-21

19 The servants of Isaac dug in the valley and found a well of living waters. 20 But the shepherds of Gerar quarreled with the shepherds of Isaac saying, “The water is ours!” He therefore called the well Esek[a] because they had quarreled with him. 21 They dug another well, but they quarreled over this one as well, and he called it Sitnah.[b]
