18 And Jacob loved Rachel, and said, I will serve thee seven years for thy younger daughter Rachel.
19 And Laban said to him, It is better that I should give her to thee, than that I should give her to another man; dwell with me.
20 And Jacob served for Rachel seven years, and they were before him as a few days, by reason of his loving her.
21 And Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her.
22 And Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a marriage-feast.
23 And it was even, and he took his daughter Lea, and brought her in to Jacob, and Jacob went in to her.
24 And Laban gave to his daughter Lea, Zelpha his handmaid, as a handmaid for her.
25 And it was morning, and behold it was Lea; and Jacob said to Laban, What is this that thou hast done to me? did I not serve thee for Rachel? and wherefore hast thou deceived me?
26 And Laban answered, It is not done thus in our country, to give the younger before the elder.
27 Fulfil then her sevens, and I will give to thee her also in return for thy labour, which thou labourest with me, yet seven other years.
28 And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her sevens; and Laban gave him his daughter Rachel to wife.
29 And Laban gave to his daughter his handmaid Balla, for a handmaid to her.
30 And he went in to Rachel; and he loved Rachel more than Lea; and he served him seven other years.
