New King James Version
Genesis 29:21-28
21Then Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her.”
22And Laban gathered together all the men of the place and made a feast.
23Now it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter and brought her to Jacob; and he went in to her.
24And Laban gave his maid Zilpah to his daughter Leah as a maid.
25So it came to pass in the morning, that behold, it was Leah. And he said to Laban, “What is this you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served you? Why then have you deceived me?”
26And Laban said, “It must not be done so in our country, to give the younger before the firstborn.
27Fulfill her week, and we will give you this one also for the service which you will serve with me still another seven years.”
28Then Jacob did so and fulfilled her week. So he gave him his daughter Rachel as wife also.
