Genesis 26:19-21

The Voice

¹⁹ But when Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and found a new well of fresh water, ²⁰ the herders of Gerar began quarreling with Isaac’s herders.

So Isaac named this well Esek, which means “contention,” because of the arguments he had with the herders. ²¹ Isaac’s men dug another well, and the water wars started again. So Isaac called it Sitnah, which means “enmity.”
