God’s Word Translation
Genesis 29:9-14
9While he was still talking to them, Rachel arrived with her father’s sheep, because she was a shepherd.
10Jacob saw Rachel, daughter of his uncle Laban, with his uncle Laban’s sheep. He came forward and rolled the stone off the opening of the well and watered his uncle Laban’s sheep.
11Then Jacob kissed Rachel and sobbed loudly.
12When Jacob told Rachel that he was her father’s nephew and that he was Rebekah’s son, she ran and told her father.
13As soon as Laban heard the news about his sister’s son Jacob, he ran to meet him. He hugged and kissed him and brought him into his home. Then Jacob told Laban all that had happened.
14Laban said to him, “You are my own flesh and blood.” Jacob stayed with him for a whole month.
