Genesis 29:15-24 Webster Bible Translation (WBT)

15. And Laban said to Jacob, Because thou art my brother, shouldest thou therefore serve me for naught? tell me, what shall thy wages be?

16. And Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.

17. Leah was tender-eyed, but Rachel was beautiful and well-favored.

18. And Jacob loved Rachel; and said, I will serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter.

19. And Laban said, It is better that I give her to thee, than that I should give her to another man: abide with me.

20. And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they seemed to him but a few days, for the love he had to her.

21. And Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife (for my days are fulfilled) that I may go in to her.

23. And it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter, and brought her to him; and he went in to her.

24. And Laban gave to his daughter Leah, Zilpah his maid for a handmaid.
