9And while he yetH5750 spakeH1696 with them, RachelH7354 cameH935 with her father’sH1 sheepH6629: for she kept themH7462. 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 nearH5066, and rolledH1556 the stoneH68 from the well’sH875 mouthH6310, and wateredH8248 the flockH6629 of LabanH3837 his mother’sH517 brotherH251. 11And JacobH3290 kissedH5401 RachelH7354, and lifted upH5375 his voiceH6963, and weptH1058. 12And JacobH3290 toldH5046 RachelH7354 that he was her father’sH1 brotherH251, and that he was Rebekah’sH7259 sonH1121: and she ranH7323 and toldH5046 her fatherH1. 13And it came to pass, when LabanH3837 heardH8085 the tidingsH8088 of JacobH3290 his sister’sH269 sonH1121, that he ranH7323 to meetH7125 him, and embracedH2263 him, and kissedH5401 him, and broughtH935 him to his houseH1004.
