Genesis 29:21-27
21Finally JacobH3290 saidH559 toH413 LabanH3837, “GrantH3051 meH853 my wifeH802, forH3588 my timeH3117 is completeH4390, and I want to sleep withH935 herH413.”
So LabanH3837 invited allH3605 the menH582 of that placeH4725 and preparedH6213 a feastH4960. 23But whenH1961 evening cameH6153, Laban tookH3947 his daughterH1323 LeahH3812 and gaveH935 herH853 to JacobH413, and he slept withH935 herH413. 24And LabanH3837 gaveH5414 his servant girlH8198 ZilpahH2153 to his daughterH1323 LeahH3812 as her maidservantH8198.
25When morningH1242 cameH1961, thereH2009H1931 was LeahH3812! “WhatH4100H2063 have you doneH6213 to me?” Jacob saidH559 toH413 LabanH3837. “Wasn’tH3808 it for RachelH7354 that I servedH5647 youH5973? WhyH4100 have you deceived meH7411?”
26LabanH3837 repliedH559, “It is notH3808 our customH6213H3651 hereH4725 to give the younger daughterH6810 in marriageH5414 beforeH6440 the olderH1067. 27FinishH4390 thisH2063 week’s celebrationH7620H1571, and we will giveH5414 you the younger oneH2063 in return forH5647 anotherH5750H312 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of workH5656.”
