Genesis 29:2-7
2He lookedH7200 and sawH2009 a wellH875 in the fieldH7704, andH2009 near itH8033H5921 layH7257 threeH7969 flocksH5739 of sheepH6629, becauseH3588 the sheepH5739 were wateredH8248 fromH4480 thisH1931 wellH875. And a largeH1419 stoneH68 coveredH5921 the mouthH6310 of the wellH875. 3When allH3605 the flocksH5739 had been gatheredH622 thereH8033, the shepherds would roll awayH1556 the stoneH68 fromH5921 the mouthH6310 of the wellH875 and waterH8248 the sheepH6629. Then they would returnH7725 the stoneH68 to its placeH4725 overH5921 the mouthH6310 of the wellH875.
4“My brothersH251,” JacobH3290 askedH559 the shepherds, “whereH370 are you fromH859?”
“We areH587 from HaranH2771,” they answeredH559.
5“Do you knowH3045 LabanH3837 the grandsonH1121 of NahorH5152?” Jacob askedH559.
“We know himH3045,” they repliedH559.
6“Is he wellH7965?” Jacob inquiredH559.
“YesH7965,” they answeredH559, “and hereH2009 comesH935 his daughterH1323 RachelH7354 withH5973 his sheepH6629.”
7“LookH2005,” said JacobH559, “it is stillH5750 broadH1419 daylightH3117; it is not yetH3808 timeH6256 to gatherH622 the livestockH4735. WaterH8248 the sheepH6629 and take them backH1980 to pastureH7462.”
