Genesis 29:15-30

15Laban said to him, “Just because you’re my relative, should you work for me for nothing? Tell me what your wages should be.”

16Now Laban had two daughters: the older was named Leah, and the younger was named Rachel.

17Leah had tender eyes, but Rachel was shapely and beautiful.

18Jacob loved Rachel, so he answered Laban, “I’ll work for you seven years for your younger daughter Rachel.”

19Laban replied, “Better that I give her to you than to some other man. Stay with me.”

20So Jacob worked seven years for Rachel, and they seemed like only a few days to him because of his love for her.

21Then Jacob said to Laban, “Since my time is complete, give me my wife, so I can sleep with her.”

22So Laban invited all the men of the place and sponsored a feast.

23That evening, Laban took his daughter Leah and gave her to Jacob, and he slept with her.

24And Laban gave his slave Zilpah to his daughter Leah as her slave.

25When morning came, there was Leah! So he said to Laban, “What have you done to me? Wasn’t it for Rachel that I worked for you? Why have you deceived me?”

26Laban answered, “It is not the custom in our country to give the younger daughter in marriage before the firstborn.

27Complete this week of wedding celebration, and we will also give you this younger one in return for working yet another seven years for me.”

28And Jacob did just that. He finished the week of celebration, and Laban gave him his daughter Rachel as his wife.

29And Laban gave his slave Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as her slave.

30Jacob slept with Rachel also, and indeed, he loved Rachel more than Leah. And he worked for Laban another seven years.
