Genesis 26:31-33
International Standard Version
31 They woke up early the next morning and made the treaty.[a] After this, Isaac sent them off and they left on peaceful terms.
32 That very same day, Isaac’s servants arrived and reported to him about a well that they had just completed digging. “We’ve found water!” they said. 33 So Isaac[b] named the well Shebah,[c] which is why the city is named Beer-sheba[d] to this day.
