Genesis 29

25 Ref And in the morning Jacob saw that it was Leah: and he said to Laban, What have you done to me? was I not working for you so that I might have Rachel? why have you been false to me?

26 And Laban said, In our country we do not let the younger daughter be married before the older.

27 Ref Let the week of the bride-feast come to its end and then we will give you the other in addition, if you will be my servant for another seven years.

28 And Jacob did so; and when the week was ended, Laban gave him his daughter Rachel for his wife.

29 Ref And Laban gave Rachel his servant-girl Bilhah to be her waiting-woman.

30 Ref Then Jacob took Rachel as his wife, and his love for her was greater than his love for Leah; and he went on working for Laban for another seven years.

31 Ref Now the Lord, seeing that Leah was not loved, gave her a child; while Rachel had no children.

32 Ref And Leah was with child, and gave birth to a son to whom she gave the name Reuben: for she said, The Lord has seen my sorrow; now my husband will have love for me.
