Genesis 29:4-12 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

4. And Jacob said unto them, My brethren, where are you from? And they said, We are from Haran.

5. And he said unto them, Do you know Laban the son of Nahor? And they said, We know him.

6. And he said unto them, Is he well? And they said, He is well, and, behold, Rachel, his daughter, comes with the sheep.

7. And he said, behold, it is yet high day; neither is it time that the livestock should be gathered together; water the sheep and go and feed them.

8. And they said, We cannot until all the flocks are gathered together and until they roll the stone from the well’s mouth, that we may water the sheep.

9. And while he yet spoke with them, Rachel came with her father’s sheep, for she was the pastor.

10. And it came to pass when Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of Laban, his mother’s brother, and the sheep of Laban, his mother’s brother, that Jacob went near and rolled the stone from the well’s mouth and watered the flock of Laban, his mother’s brother.

11. And Jacob kissed Rachel and lifted up his voice and wept.

12. And Jacob told Rachel that he was of her father’s brethren, and that he was Rebekah’s son, and she ran and told her father.
