*
Then Jacob said to Laban , "
Give me my wife ,
for my days are fulfilled ,
that I may go in to her ."
*
And Laban gathered together all the men of the place and made a feast .
*
Now it came to pass in the evening ,
that he took Leah his daughter and brought her to Jacob ;
and he went in to her .
*
And Laban gave his maid Zilpah to his daughter Leah as a maid .
*
So 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 ?"
*
And Laban said , "
It must not be done so in our country ,
to give the younger before the firstborn .
*
Fulfill her week ,
and we will give you this one also for the service which you will serve with me still another seven years ."
*
Then Jacob did so and fulfilled her week .
So he gave him his daughter Rachel as wife also .
*
And Laban gave his maid Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as a maid .
*
Then Jacob also went in to Rachel ,
and he also loved Rachel more than Leah .
And he served with Laban still another seven years .
