Genesis 29:2

Jacob Meets Rachel

1 So Jacob went on his journey ^aand came to the land of the people of the East.

2 And he looked, and saw a ^awell in the field; and behold, there were three flocks of sheep lying by it; for out of that well they watered the flocks. A large stone was on the well’s mouth.

3 Now all the flocks would be gathered there; and they would roll the stone from the well’s mouth, water the sheep, and put the stone back in its place on the well’s mouth.

4 And Jacob said to them, “My brethren, where are you from?” And they said, “We are from ^aHaran.”

5 Then he said to them, “Do you know ^aLaban the son of Nahor?” And they said, “We know him.”
