Gênesis

  • Jacob Meets Rachel

  • |Gênesis 29:1| Then Jacob1 went on his way and came to the land of the people of the East [near Haran].

  • |Gênesis 29:2| As he looked, he saw a well in the field, and three flocks of sheep lying there [resting] beside it because the flocks were watered from that well. Now the stone on the mouth of the well [that covered and protected it] was large,

  • |Gênesis 29:3| and when all the flocks were gathered there, the shepherds would roll the stone from the mouth of the well, water the sheep, and [afterward] replace the stone on the mouth of the well.

  • |Gênesis 29:4| Jacob said to them, "My brothers, where are you from?" And they said, "We are from Haran."

  • |Gênesis 29:5| So he said to them, "Do you know Laban the grandson of Nahor [Abraham's brother]?" And they replied, "We know him."

  • |Gênesis 29:6| And he asked them, "2 Is it well with him?" And they said, "He is doing well; look, here comes his daughter Rachel with the sheep!"

  • |Gênesis 29:7| Jacob said, "Look, the sun is still high [overhead]; it is a long time before the flocks need to be gathered [in their folds for the night]. Water the sheep, and go, and return them to their pasture."

  • |Gênesis 29:8| But they said, "We cannot [leave] until all the flocks are gathered together, and the shepherds roll the stone from the mouth of the well; then we will water the sheep."

  • |Gênesis 29:9| While he was still speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she was a shepherdess.

  • |Gênesis 29:10| When Jacob saw [his cousin] Rachel, the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, and Laban's sheep, he came up and rolled the stone away from the mouth of the well and watered the flock of Laban, his uncle.
