9 Now while he was still speaking with them, ^aRachel came with her father’s sheep, for she was a shepherdess.  ‡

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 ^arolled the stone from the well’s mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother’s brother.  ‡

12 And Jacob told Rachel that he was ^aher father’s relative and that he was Rebekah’s son. ^bSo she ran and told her father.  ‡

13 Then it came to pass, when Laban heard the report about Jacob his sister’s son, that ^ahe ran to meet him, and embraced him and kissed him, and brought him to his house. So he told Laban all these things.  ‡
