That very day Isaac’s servants came and told him about a new well they had dug. “We’ve found water!” they exclaimed.
Then Isaac built an altar there and worshiped the Lord. He set up his camp at that place, and his servants dug another well.
Early the next morning, they each took a solemn oath not to interfere with each other. Then Isaac sent them home again, and they left him in peace.
So Isaac named the well Shibah (which means “oath”). And to this day the town that grew up there is called Beersheba (which means “well of the oath”).
Lazy people are soon poor; hard workers get rich.
Lazy people want much but get little, but those who work hard will prosper.
“Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you.
