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 29:22 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.
Gen 29:25 So it came about 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 with you? Why then have you deceived me?"
Gen 29:26 But Laban said, "It is not the practice in our place to marry off the younger before the firstborn.
Gen 29:27 "Complete the week of this one, and we will give you the other also for the service which you shall serve with me for another seven years."
Gen 29:28 Jacob did so and completed her week, and he gave him his daughter Rachel as his wife.
Gen 29:30 So Jacob went in to Rachel also, and indeed he loved Rachel more than Leah, and he served with Laban for another seven years.
Gen 29:31 ¶ Now the LORD saw that Leah was unloved, and He opened her womb, but Rachel was barren.
Gen 29:32 Leah conceived and bore a son and named him Reuben, for she said, "Because the LORD has seen my affliction; surely now my husband will love me."
Gen 29:33 Then she conceived again and bore a son and said, "Because the LORD has heard that I am unloved, He has therefore given me this son also." So she named him Simeon.
