2And he lookedH7200, and behold, there was a wellH875 in the fieldsH7704, and behold there, threeH7969 flocksH6629 of sheepH6629 were lyingH7257 by it; for out of that wellH875 they wateredH8248 the flocksH6629, and a greatH1419 stoneH68 was at the mouthH6310 of the wellH875.
3And when all the flocksH6629 were gatheredH622 there, they rolledH1556 the stoneH68 from the mouthH6310 of the wellH875, and wateredH8248 the sheepH6629, and put the stoneH68 again on the mouthH6310 of the wellH875 in its placeH4725.
4And JacobH3290 saidH559 to them, My brethren, whence are ye? And they saidH559, Of HaranH2771 are we.
5And he saidH559 to them, Do ye knowH3045 LabanH3837 the sonH1121 of NahorH5152? And they saidH559, We do knowH3045 [him].
6And he saidH559 to them, Is he well? And they saidH559, [He is] well; and behold, there comesH935 RachelH7354 his daughterH1323 with the sheepH6629.
7And he saidH559, Behold, it is yetH5750 high dayH3117; it is not timeH6256 that the cattle should be gatheredH622 together; waterH8248 the sheepH6629, and go, feedH7462 [them].
8And they saidH559, We cannot until all the flocksH6629 are gatheredH622 together, and they rollH1556 the stoneH68 from the mouthH6310 of the wellH875, and we waterH8248 the sheepH6629.
