"Do you know Laban son of Nahor?" Jacob asked them. They answered, "We know [him]."
Genesis 29:5 In-Context
3
When all the flocks were gathered there, the shepherds would roll the stone away from the well’s mouth and water the sheep. Then they would return the stone to its place over the mouth of the well.
4
Jacob asked the shepherds, “My brothers, where are you from?” “We’re from Harran,” they replied.
5
He said to them, “Do you know Laban, Nahor’s grandson?” “Yes, we know him,” they answered.
6
Then Jacob asked them, “Is he well?” “Yes, he is,” they said, “and here comes his daughter Rachel with the sheep.”
7
“Look,” he said, “the sun is still high; it is not time for the flocks to be gathered. Water the sheep and take them back to pasture.”
