Stay with me. ²⁰ And Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed to him a few days, for the love he had for her. ²¹ And Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, so that I may go in to her. ²² And Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a feast. ²³ And it happened in the evening, he took his daughter Leah and brought her to him. And he went in to her. ²⁴ And Laban gave Zilpah his slave woman to his daughter Leah for a handmaid. ²⁵ And it happened in the morning, behold, it was Leah! And he said to Laban, What is this you have done to me? Did I not serve with you for Rachel? Why then have you tricked me? ²⁶ And Laban said, It must not be done so in our country, to give the younger before the first-born. ²⁷ Fulfill her week, and we will give you this one also for the service which you shall serve with me still another seven years. ²⁸ And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week. And he gave him Rachel his daughter to wife also. ²⁹ And Laban gave Bilhah his slave woman to his daughter Rachel, to be her handmaid. ³⁰ And he also went in to Rachel.
