וַיְהִ֡י כַּאֲשֶׁר֩ רָאָ֨ה יַעֲקֹ֜ב אֶת־רָחֵ֗ל בַּת־לָבָן֙ אֲחִ֣י אִמֹּ֔ו וְאֶת־צֹ֥אן לָבָ֖ן אֲחִ֣י אִמֹּ֑ו וַיִּגַּ֣שׁ יַעֲקֹ֗ב וַיָּ֤גֶל אֶת־הָאֶ֨בֶן֙ מֵעַל֙ פִּ֣י הַבְּאֵ֔ר וַיַּ֕שְׁקְ אֶת־צֹ֥אן לָבָ֖ן אֲחִ֥י אִמֹּֽו׃
And it came to pass, when Yaʿaqov saw Raḥel, the daughter of Lavan, his mother’s brother, and the sheep of Lavan, his mother’s brother, that Yaʿaqov approached, rolled the stone from the mouth of the well, and watered the sheep of Lavan, his mother’s brother.
