6
"Is he well?" Jacob asked. "Yes," they said, "and here is his daughter Rachel, coming with his sheep."
Genesis 29:6 In-Context
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.”
8
“We can’t,” they replied, “until all the flocks are gathered and the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the well. Then we will water the sheep.”
