Genesis (Author Moses)

26:12Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.

26:13And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:

26:14For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.

26:15For all the wells which his father's servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.

26:16And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we.

26:17And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.

26:19And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.

26:23And he went up from thence to Beersheba.

26:24And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham's sake.

26:28And they said, We saw certainly that the LORD was with thee: and we said, Let there be now an oath betwixt us, even betwixt us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;
