Genesis 29:5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ He said to them, “Do you know Nahor’s grandson Laban?”

“Yes, we know him,” they answered.

⁶ Then Jacob asked them, “How is he?”

“He’s fine,” they said. “Here comes his daughter Rachel with the sheep.”

⁷ “Look,” he said, “the sun is still high in the sky. It’s not time for the flocks to be brought together. Give water to the sheep and take them back to the grasslands.”
