OET (OET-RV) Once all the flocks were gathered there, then they would roll the stone from over the mouth of the well and water the animals. Then they would return the stone to its place over the mouth of the well.
וְנֶאֶסְפוּ שָׁ֣מָּה כָל הָעֲדָרִ֗ים וְגָלֲל֤וּ אֶת־הָאֶ֨בֶן֙
and,gathered there,to all the,flocks and,roll DOM the,stone
Verse 3 tells what happened regularly every day. Consider what is the best way to communicate this in your language. Also, be consistent here with how you translated stone in verse 2. Alternate translation: “Every day shepherds would bring all their flocks of sheep there. They would work together to roll the stone” or “After all the shepherds brought their flocks there, together they would remove the stone”
מֵעַל֙ פִּ֣י הַבְּאֵ֔ר
from=under mouth the,well
Alternate translation: “off the top of the well”
וְהִשְׁק֖וּ אֶת הַצֹּ֑אן
and,water DOM the,sheep
See how you translated “watered” in verse 2, and how you translated a different word that has a similar meaning (“draw water”) in Gen 24:19-20. Alternate translation: “and get water from it for the sheep to drink.”
וְהֵשִׁ֧יבוּ אֶת הָאֶ֛בֶן & לִמְקֹמָֽהּ
and,put_~_back DOM the,stone & to,place,its
Alternate translation: “Then they would roll the stone back”
עַל־פִּ֥י הַבְּאֵ֖ר
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in mouth the,well
Alternate translation: “over the opening of the well.”
29:2-12 Jacob’s meeting Rachel at the well was providentially timed by the sovereign God who was leading Jacob to fulfillment of the promises (cp. 24:12-20). The well was a reminder of God’s blessing (cp. 16:13-14; 21:19; 26:19-25, 33).

OET (OET-RV) Once all the flocks were gathered there, then they would roll the stone from over the mouth of the well and water the animals. Then they would return the stone to its place over the mouth of the well.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
