Genesis 29:7

29:7 Then Jacob11 said, “Since it is still the middle of the day,12 it is not time for the flocks to be gathered. You should water the sheep and then go and let them graze some more.”13

11	tn Heb “and he”; the referent (Jacob) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
12	tn Heb “the day is great.”
13	tn Heb “water the sheep and go and pasture [them].” The verbal forms are imperatives, but Jacob would hardly be giving direct orders to someone else’s shepherds. The nuance here is probably one of advice.
