18. Jacob was in love with Rachel and said, “I’ll work for you seven years in return for your younger daughter Rachel.”
19. Laban said, “It’s better that I give her to you than to some other man. Stay here with me.”
20. So Jacob served seven years to get Rachel, but they seemed like only a few days to him because of his love for her.
21. Then Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife. My time is completed, and I want to make love to her.”
22. So Laban brought together all the people of the place and gave a feast.
23. But when evening came, he took his daughter Leah and brought her to Jacob, and Jacob made love to her.
24. And Laban gave his servant Zilpah to his daughter as her attendant.
