1. Mosebok 29,1

Israel
Jakob fortsatte sin reise og kom til landet til de østlige folkene.

2 Han la merke til en brønn på marken, med tre flokker sauer liggende i nærheten, ettersom flokkene ble vannet fra den brønnen. Steinen som dekket brønnens munn var stor.

3 Når alle flokkene var samlet, ville gjeterne rulle steinen bort fra brønnens munn og vanne sauene, deretter legge steinen tilbake over brønnens munn.
