Jacob said to them, “My relatives, where are you from?” They said, “We are from Haran.”
In context
2 He looked, and saw a well in the field, and saw three flocks of sheep lying there by it. For out of that well they watered the flocks. The stone on the well’s mouth was large.
3 There all the flocks were gathered. They rolled the stone from the well’s mouth, and watered the sheep, and put the stone back on the well’s mouth in its place.
4 Jacob said to them, “My relatives, where are you from?” They said, “We are from Haran.”
5 He said to them, “Do you know Laban, the son of Nahor?” They said, “We know him.”
6 He said to them, “Is it well with him?” They said, “It is well. See, Rachel, his daughter, is coming with the sheep.”
