Genesis 29:4 Context
2And he looked, and behold, a well in the field, and loe, there were three flocks of sheepe lying by it: for out of that wel they watered the flocks: and a great stone was vpon the welles mouth. 3And thither were all the flockes gathered, and they rolled the stone from the wels mouth, & watered the sheepe, and put the stone againe vpon the wels mouth in his place. 4And Iacob said vnto them, My brethren, whence be ye? and they saide, Of Haran are we. 5And he said vnto them, Know ye Laban the sonne of Nahor? And they sayde, We knowe him. 6And he said vnto them, Is hee well? and they said, He is well: and behold, Rachel his daughter commeth with the sheepe.
