Genesis 29

6 Ref And he said to them, Is he well? And they said, He is well, and here is Rachel his daughter coming with the sheep.

7 Ref Then Jacob said, The sun is still high and it is not time to get the cattle together: get water for the sheep and go and give them their food.

8 Ref And they said, We are not able to do so till all the flocks have come together and the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the water-hole; then we will get water for the sheep.

9 Ref While he was still talking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she took care of them.

10 Ref Then when Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, coming with Laban's sheep, he came near, and rolling the stone away from the mouth of the hole, he got water for Laban's flock.

11 Ref And weeping for joy, Jacob gave Rachel a kiss.

12 Ref And Rachel, hearing from Jacob that he was her father's relation and that he was the son of Rebekah, went running to give her father news of it.
