Genesis 29:7-9

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁷ He said, The sun is still high; it is a long time yet before the flocks need be gathered [in their folds]. [Why not] water the sheep and return them to their pasture?

⁸ But they said, We cannot until all the flocks are gathered together; then [the shepherds] roll the stone from the well’s mouth and we water the sheep.

⁹ While he was still talking with them, Rachel came with her father’s sheep, for she shepherded them.
