Genesis 29:14-19 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

14. He answered: Thou art my bone and my flesh. And after the days of one month were expired,

15. He said to him: Because thou art my brother, shalt thou serve me without wages? Tell me what wages thou wilt have.

16. Now he had two daughters, the name of the elder was Lia: and the younger was called Richel.

17. But Lia was blear eyed: Rachel was well favoured, and of a beautiful countenance.

18. And Jacob being in love with her, said: I will serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter.

19. Lahan answered: It is better that I give her thee than to another man; stay with me.
