GE-29:1 Then Jacob went on his journey, and came into the land

of the people

of the east.

GE-29:2 And he looked, and behold a well in the field, and, lo,

there [were]

three flocks of sheep lying by it; for out of that well they

watered the

flocks: and a great stone [was] upon the well's mouth.

GE-29:3 And thither were all the flocks gathered: and they

rolled the stone

from the well's mouth, and watered the sheep, and put the stone

again upon the

well's mouth in his place.

GE-29:4 And Jacob said unto them, My brethren, whence [be] ye?

And they said,

Of Haran [are] we.

GE-29:5 And he said unto them, Know ye Laban the son of Nahor?

And they said,

We know [him].

GE-29:6 And he said unto them, [Is] he well? And they said, [He

is] well:

and, behold, Rachel his daughter cometh with the sheep.

GE-29:7 And he said, Lo, [it is] yet high day, neither [is it]

time that the

cattle should be gathered together: water ye the sheep, and go

[and] feed

[them].

GE-29:8 And they said, We cannot, until all the flocks be

gathered together,

and [till] they roll the stone from the well's mouth; then we

water the sheep.

GE-29:9 And while he yet spake with them, Rachel came with her

father's

sheep: for she kept them.

GE-29:10 And it came to pass, when Jacob saw Rachel the

daughter of Laban his

mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban his mother's brother,

that Jacob went

near, and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered

the flock of

Laban his mother's brother.

GE-29:11 And Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice, and

wept.

GE-29:12 And Jacob told Rachel that he [was] her father's

brother, and that

he [was] Rebekah's son: and she ran and told her father.

GE-29:13 And it came to pass, when Laban heard the tidings of

Jacob his

sister's son, that he ran to meet him, and embraced him, and

kissed him, and

brought him to his house. And he told Laban all these things.

GE-29:14 And Laban said to him, Surely thou [art] my bone and

my flesh. And

he abode with him the space of a month.

GE-29:15 And Laban said unto Jacob, Because thou [art] my

brother, shouldest

thou therefore serve me for nought? tell me, what [shall] thy

wages [be]?

GE-29:16 And Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder

[was] Leah, and

the name of the younger [was] Rachel.

GE-29:17 Leah [was] tender eyed; but Rachel was beautiful and

well favoured.

GE-29:18 And Jacob loved Rachel; and said, I will serve thee

seven years for

Rachel thy younger daughter.

GE-29:19 And Laban said, [It is] better that I give her to thee,

than that I

should give her to another man: abide with me.

GE-29:20 And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they

seemed unto him

[but] a few days, for the love he had to her.

GE-29:21 And Jacob said unto Laban, Give [me] my wife, for my

days are

fulfilled, that I may go in unto her.

GE-29:22 And Laban gathered together all the men of the place,

and made a

feast.

GE-29:23 And it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah

his daughter,

and brought her to him; and he went in unto her.

GE-29:24 And Laban gave unto his daughter Leah Zilpah his maid

[for] an

handmaid.

GE-29:25 And it came to pass, that in the morning, behold, it

[was] Leah: and

he said to Laban, What [is] this thou hast done unto me? did not

I serve with

thee for Rachel? wherefore then hast thou beguiled me?

GE-29:26 And Laban said, It must not be so done in our country,

to give the

younger before the firstborn.

GE-29:27 Fulfil her week, and we will give thee this also for

the service

which thou shalt serve with me yet seven other years.

GE-29:28 And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week: and he gave

him Rachel his

daughter to wife also.

GE-29:29 And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his

handmaid to be her

maid.

GE-29:30 And he went in also unto Rachel, and he loved also

Rachel more than

Leah, and served with him yet seven other years.

GE-29:31 And when the LORD saw that Leah [was] hated, he opened

her womb: but

Rachel [was] barren.

GE-29:32 And Leah conceived, and bare a son, and she called his

name Reuben:

for she said, Surely the LORD hath looked upon my affliction;

now therefore my

husband will love me.

GE-29:33 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and said,

Because the LORD

hath heard that I [was] hated, he hath therefore given me this

[son] also: and

she called his name Simeon.

GE-29:34 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and said, Now

this time

will my husband be joined unto me, because I have born him three

sons:

therefore was his name called Levi.

GE-29:35 And she conceived again, and bare a son: and she said,

Now will I

praise the LORD: therefore she called his name Judah; and left

bearing.
