Genesis 26:20-22
Jubilee Bible 2000
20 And the pastors of Gerar strove with Isaac’s pastors, saying, The water is ours; therefore he called the name of the well Esek, because they strove with him.
21 And they opened another well and strove for that one also; and he called the name of it Sitnah.
22 And he left there and opened another well; and for that one they did not strive and he called the name of it Rehoboth, and he said, For now the LORD has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.

He named it Rehoboth,[c](D) saying, “Now the Lord has given us room(E) and we will flourish(F) in the land.”
