Genesis 26:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 For he had flocks of sheep, and herds of cattle, and a mighty household: therefore the Philistines had [a]envy at him,
15 Insomuch that the Philistines stopped, and filled up with earth all the wells, which his father’s servants dug in his father Abraham’s time.
16 Then Abimelech said unto Isaac, Get thee from us, for thou art mightier than we a great deal.
