21And JacobH3290 saidH559 unto LabanH3837, GiveH3051 me my wifeH802, for my daysH3117 are fulfilled, that I may goH935 in unto her. 22And LabanH3837 gatheredH622 together all the menH376 of the placeH4725, and madeH6213 a feastH4960. 23And it cameH935 to pass in the eveningH6153, that he tookH3947 LeahH3812 his daughterH1323, and broughtH935 her to him; and he wentH935 in unto her. 24And LabanH3837 gaveH5414 ZilpahH2153 his handmaid unto his daughterH1323 LeahH3812 for a handmaid. 25And it came to pass in the morningH1242 that, behold, it wasH1961 LeahH3812: and he saidH559 to LabanH3837, What is this thou hast done unto me? did not I serveH5647 with thee for RachelH7354? wherefore then hast thou beguiled me? 26And LabanH3837 saidH559, It is not soH3651 done in our placeH4725, to giveH5414 the youngerH6810 before the first-born. 27Fulfil the weekH7620 of this oneH834, and we will giveH5414 thee the otherH312 alsoH1571 for the serviceH5656 which thou shalt serveH5647 with me yetH5750 sevenH7651 otherH312 yearsH8141. 28And JacobH3290 did soH3651, and fulfilled her weekH7620: and he gaveH5414 him RachelH7354 his daughterH1323 to wifeH802.
