H3290
Then Jacob
H5375
went on
H7272
his journey,
H3212
and came
H776
to the land
H1121
of the children
H6924
of the east.
2
H7200
He looked,
H875
and behold, a well
H7704
in the field,
H7969
and, behold, three
H5739
flocks
H6629
of sheep
H7257
lying
H875
there by it. For out of that well
H8248
they watered
H5739
the flocks.
H68
The stone
H875
on the well's
H6310
mouth
H1419
was large.
3
H5739
There all the flocks
H622
were gathered.
H1556
They rolled
H68
the stone
H875
from the well's
H6310
mouth,
H8248
and watered
H6629
the sheep,
H7725
and put
H68
the stone
H7725
again
H875
on the well's
H6310
mouth
H4725
in its place.
4
H3290
Jacob
H559
said
H251
to them, "My relatives,
H370
where
H559
are you from?" They said,
H2771
"We are from Haran."
5
H559
He said
H3045
to them, "Do you know
H3837
Laban,
H1121
the son
H5152
of Nahor?"
H559
They said,
H3045
"We know him."
6
H559
He said
H7965
to them, "Is it well
H559
with him?" They said,
H7965
"It is well.
H7354
See, Rachel,
H1323
his daughter,
H935
is coming
H6629
with the sheep."
7
H559
He said,
H2005
"Behold,
H1419
it is still the middle
H3117
of the day,
H6256
not time
H4735
to gather the livestock
H622
together.
H8248
Water
H6629
the sheep,
H3212
and go
H7462
and feed them."
8
H559
They said,
H3201
"We can't,
H5739
until all the flocks
H622
are gathered together,
H1556
and they roll
H68
the stone
H875
from the well's
H6310
mouth.
H8248
Then we water
H6629
the sheep."
9
H5750
While he was yet
H1696
speaking
H7354
with them, Rachel
H935
came
H1
with her father's
H6629
sheep,
H7462
for she kept them.
10
H3290
It happened, when Jacob
H7200
saw
H7354
Rachel
H1323
the daughter
H3837
of Laban,
H517
his mother's
H251
brother,
H6629
and the sheep
H3837
of Laban,
H517
his mother's
H251
brother,
H3290
that Jacob
H5066
went near,
H1556
and rolled
H68
the stone
H875
from the well's
H6310
mouth,
H8248
and watered
H6629
the flock
H3837
of Laban
H517
his mother's
H251
brother.
12
H3290
Jacob
H5046
told
H7354
Rachel
H1
that he was her father's
H251
brother,
H7259
and that he was Rebekah's
H1121
son.
H7323
She ran
H5046
and told
H1
her father.
13
H3837
It happened, when Laban
H8085
heard
H3290
the news of Jacob,
H269
his sister's
H1121
son,
H7323
that he ran
H7125
to meet
H3290
Jacob,
H2263
and embraced
H5401
him, and kissed
H935
him, and brought
H1004
him to his house.
H5608
Jacob told
H3837
Laban
H1697
all these things.
14
H3837
Laban
H559
said
H389
to him, "Surely
H6106
you are my bone
H1320
and my flesh."
H3427
He lived
H3117
with him for
H2320
a month.
15
H3837
Laban
H559
said
H3290
to Jacob,
H251
"Because you are my brother,
H5647
should you therefore serve
H2600
me for nothing?
H5046
Tell
H4909
me, what will your wages be?"
16
H3837
Laban
H8147
had two
H1323
daughters.
H8034
The name
H1419
of the elder
H3812
was Leah,
H8034
and the name
H6996
of the younger
H7354
was Rachel.
17
H3812
Leah's
H5869
eyes
H7390
were weak,
H7354
but Rachel
H3303
was beautiful
H3303
in form
H4758
and attractive.
18
H3290
Jacob
H157
loved
H7354
Rachel.
H559
He said,
H5647
"I will serve
H7651
you seven
H8141
years
H7354
for Rachel,
H6996
your younger
H1323
daughter."
19
H3837
Laban
H559
said,
H2896
"It is better
H5414
that I give
H5414
her to you, than that I should give
H312
her to another
H376
man.
H3427
Stay with me."
20
H3290
Jacob
H5647
served
H7651
seven
H8141
years
H7354
for Rachel.
H5869
They seemed
H259
to him but a few
H3117
days,
H160
for the love he had for her.
21
H3290
Jacob
H559
said
H3837
to Laban,
H3051
"Give
H802
me my wife,
H3117
for my days
H4390
are fulfilled,
H935
that I may go in to her."
22
H3837
Laban
H622
gathered together
H582
all the men
H4725
of the place,
H6213
and made
H4960
a feast.
23
H6153
It happened in the evening,
H3947
that he took
H3812
Leah
H1323
his daughter,
H935
and brought
H935
her to him. He went in to her.
24
H3837
Laban
H5414
gave
H2153
Zilpah
H8198
his handmaid
H1323
to his daughter
H3812
Leah
H8198
for a handmaid.
25
H1242
It happened in the morning
H3812
that, behold, it was Leah.
H559
He said
H3837
to Laban,
H6213
"What is this you have done
H5647
to me? Didn't I serve
H7354
with you for Rachel?
H7411
Why then have you deceived me?"
26
H3837
Laban
H559
said,
H6213
"It is not done
H4725
so in our place,
H5414
to give
H6810
the younger
H6440
before
H1067
the firstborn.
27
H4390
Fulfill
H7620
the week
H2063
of this one,
H5414
and we will give
H5656
you the other also for the service
H5647
which you will serve
H7651
with me yet seven
H312
other
H8141
years."
28
H3290
Jacob
H6213
did
H4390
so, and fulfilled
H7620
her week.
H5414
He gave
H7354
him Rachel
H1323
his daughter
H802
as wife.
29
H3837
Laban
H5414
gave
H7354
to Rachel
H1323
his daughter
H1090
Bilhah,
H8198
his handmaid,
H8198
to be her handmaid.
30
H935
He went in
H7354
also to Rachel,
H157
and he loved
H7354
also Rachel
H3812
more than Leah,
H5647
and served
H7651
with him yet seven
H312
other
H8141
years.
31
H3068
Yahweh
H7200
saw
H3812
that Leah
H8130
was hated,
H6605
and he opened
H7358
her womb,
H7354
but Rachel
H6135
was barren.
32
H3812
Leah
H2029
conceived,
H3205
and bore
H1121
a son,
H8034
and she named
H7121
him
H7205
Reuben.
H3588
For
H559
she said,
H3588
"Because
H3068
Yahweh
H7200
has looked
H6040
at my affliction.
H3588
For
H376
now my husband
H157
will love me."
33
H2029
She conceived
H3205
again, and bore
H1121
a son,
H559
and said,
H3068
"Because Yahweh
H8085
has heard
H8130
that I am hated,
H5414
he has therefore given
H8034
me this son also." She named
H7121
him
H8095
Simeon.
