9. They were still speaking, and behold, Rachel arrived with her father's sheep; for she pastured the flock.
10. When Jacob had seen her, and he realized that she was his maternal first cousin, and that these were the sheep of his uncle Laban, he removed the stone which closed the well.
11. And having watered the flock, he kissed her. And lifting up his voice, he wept.
12. And he revealed to her that he was a brother of her father, and the son of Rebekah. And so, hurrying, she announced it to her father.
13. And when he had heard that Jacob, his sister's son, had arrived, he ran to meet him. And embracing him, and kissing him heartily, he brought him into his house. But when he had heard the reasons for his journey,
14. he responded, "You are my bone and my flesh." And after the days of one month were completed,
15. he said to him: "Though you are my brother, will you serve me for nothing? Tell me what wages you would accept."
16. In truth, he had two daughters: the name of the elder was Leah; and truly the younger was called Rachel.
17. But while Leah was bleary-eyed, Rachel had an elegant appearance and was attractive to behold.
18. And Jacob, loving her, said, "I will serve you for seven years, for your younger daughter Rachel."
19. Laban responded, "It is better that I give her to you than to another man; remain with me."
20. Therefore, Jacob served for seven years for Rachel. And these seemed like only a few days, because of the greatness of love.
21. And he said to Laban, "Give my wife to me. For now the time has been fulfilled, so that I may go in to her."
