Genesis 29:5-14
5And he saidH559 unto them, KnowH3045 ye LabanH3837 the sonH1121 of NahorH5152? And they saidH559, We knowH3045 him. 6And he saidH559 unto them, Is it well with him? And they saidH559, It is well: and, behold, RachelH7354 his daughterH1323 cometh with the sheepH6629. 7And he saidH559, Lo, it is yetH5750 high dayH3117, neither is it timeH6256 that the cattle should be gatheredH622 together: waterH8248 ye the sheepH6629, and go and feedH7462 them. 8And they saidH559, We cannot, until all the flocksH6629 be gatheredH622 together, and they rollH1556 the stoneH68 from the well’s mouthH6310; then we waterH8248 the sheepH6629. 9While he was yetH5750 speakingH1696 with them, RachelH7354 cameH935 with her father’sH1 sheepH6629; for she kept them. 10And it came to pass, when JacobH3290 sawH7200 RachelH7354 the daughterH1323 of LabanH3837 his mother’sH517 brotherH251, and the sheepH6629 of LabanH3837 his mother’sH517 brotherH251, that JacobH3290 went near, and rolledH1556 the stoneH68 from the well’s mouthH6310, and wateredH8248 the flockH6629 of LabanH3837 his mother’sH517 brotherH251. 11And JacobH3290 kissedH5401 RachelH7354, and liftedH5375 up his voiceH6963, and weptH1058. 12And JacobH3290 toldH5046 RachelH7354 that he was her father’sH1 brotherH251, and that he was Rebekah’s sonH1121: and she ranH7323 and toldH5046 her fatherH1.
13And it cameH935 to pass, when LabanH3837 heardH8085 the tidings of JacobH3290 his sister’sH269 sonH1121, that he ranH7323 to meet him, and embracedH2263 him, and kissedH5401 him, and broughtH935 him to his houseH1004. And he told LabanH3837 all these thingsH1697. 14And LabanH3837 saidH559 to him, SurelyH389 thou art my boneH6106 and my fleshH1320. And he abode with him the space of a monthH2320.
