Gen 29:4 ¶ Jacob said to them, "My brothers, where are you from?" And they said, "We are from Haran."
Gen 29:5 He said to them, "Do you know Laban the son of Nahor?" And they said, "We know him."
Gen 29:6 And he said to them, "Is it well with him?" And they said, "It is well, and here is Rachel his daughter coming with the sheep."
Gen 29:7 He said, "Behold, it is still high day; it is not time for the livestock to be gathered. Water the sheep, and go, pasture them."
Gen 29:8 But they said, "We cannot, until all the flocks are gathered, and they roll the stone from the mouth of the well; then we water the sheep."
Gen 29:9 ¶ While he was still speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she was a shepherdess.
Gen 29:10 When Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban his mother's brother, Jacob went up and rolled the stone from the mouth of the well and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.
Gen 29:11 Then Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted his voice and wept.
Gen 29:12 Jacob told Rachel that he was a relative of her father and that he was Rebekah's son, and she ran and told her father.
Gen 29:13 ¶ So when Laban heard the news of Jacob his sister's son, he ran to meet him, and embraced him and kissed him and brought him to his house. Then he related to Laban all these things.
Gen 29:14 Laban said to him, "Surely you are my bone and my flesh." And he stayed with him a month.
Gen 29:15 ¶ Then Laban said to Jacob, "Because you are my relative, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what shall your wages be?"
Gen 29:16 Now Laban had two daughters; the name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
Gen 29:17 And Leah's eyes were weak, but Rachel was beautiful of form and face.
Gen 29:18 Now Jacob loved Rachel, so he said, "I will serve you seven years for your younger daughter Rachel."
Gen 29:19 Laban said, "It is better that I give her to you than to give her to another man; stay with me."
Gen 29:20 So Jacob served seven years for Rachel and they seemed to him but a few days because of his love for her.
Gen 29:21 ¶ Then Jacob said to Laban, "Give me my wife, for my time is completed, that I may go in to her."
Gen 29:22 Laban gathered all the men of the place and made a feast.
Gen 29:23 Now in the evening he took his daughter Leah, and brought her to him; and Jacob went in to her.
