20 But in that place also the shepherds of Gerar argued against the shepherds of Isaac, by saying, 'It is our water.' For this reason, he called the name of the well, because of what had happened, 'Calumny.'
21 Then they dug up yet another one. And over that one also they fought, and he called it, 'Enmity.'
22 Advancing from there, he dug another well, over which they did not contend. And so he called its name, 'Latitude,' saying, 'Now the Lord has expanded us and caused us to increase across the land.'
23 Then he ascended from that place into Beersheba,
24 where the Lord appeared to him on the same night, saying: 'I am the God of Abraham your father. Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I will bless you, and I will multiply your offspring because of my servant Abraham.'
