Genesis 29:2-4
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
2 As he looked, he saw a well in the field; and behold, there were three flocks of sheep lying by it, for out of that well the flocks were watered. The stone on the well’s mouth was a big one,
3 And when all the flocks were gathered there, [the shepherds] would roll the stone from the well’s mouth, water the sheep, and replace the stone on the well’s mouth.
4 And Jacob said to them, My brothers, where are you from? And they said, We are from Haran.
