Genesis 29:1-3

New American Standard Bible 1995

Jacob Meets Rachel

29 Then Jacob ^[a]went on his journey, and came to the land of ^(A)the sons of the east. ² He looked, and ^[b]saw ^(B)a well in the field, and behold, three flocks of sheep were lying there beside it, for from that well they watered the flocks. Now the stone on the mouth of the well was large. ³ When all the flocks were gathered there, they would then roll the stone from the mouth of the well and water the sheep, and put the stone back in its place on the mouth of the well.
