Genesis 29:1-30
1
So Jacob went on his journey and came to the land of the people of the East.
2
And he looked, and saw a well in the field; and behold, there [were] three flocks of sheep lying by it; for out of that well they watered the flocks. A large stone [was] on the well's mouth.
3
Now all the flocks would be gathered there; and they would roll the stone from the well's mouth, water the sheep, and put the stone back in its place on the well's mouth.
4
And Jacob said to them, "My brethren, where [are] you from?" And they said, "We [are] from Haran."
5
Then he said to them, "Do you know Laban the son of Nahor?" And they said, "We know him."
6
So he said to them, "Is he well?" And they said, "[He is] well. And look, his daughter Rachel is coming with the sheep."
7
Then he said, "Look, [it is] still high day; [it is] not time for the cattle to be gathered together. Water the sheep, and go and feed [them."]
8
But they said, "We cannot until all the flocks are gathered together, and they have rolled the stone from the well's mouth; then we water the sheep."
9
Now while he was still speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she was a shepherdess.
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.

14
And Laban said to him, "Surely you [are] my bone and my flesh." And he stayed with him for a month.
15
Then Laban said to Jacob, "Because you [are] my relative, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what [should] your wages [be?"]
16
Now Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder [was] Leah, and the name of the younger [was] Rachel.
17
Leah's eyes [were] delicate, but Rachel was beautiful of form and appearance.
18
Now Jacob loved Rachel; so he said, "I will serve you seven years for Rachel your younger daughter."
19
And Laban said, "[It is] better that I give her to you than that I should give her to another man. Stay with me."
20
So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed [only] a few days to him because of the love he had for her.
21
Then Jacob said to Laban, "Give [me] my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her."
22

23
Now it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter and brought her to Jacob; and he went in to her.
24
And Laban gave his maid Zilpah to his daughter Leah [as] a maid.
25
So it came to pass in the morning, that behold, it [was] Leah. And he said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served you? Why then have you deceived me?"
26
And Laban said, "It must not be done so in our country, to give the younger before the firstborn.
27
"Fulfill her week, and we will give you this one also for the service which you will serve with me still another seven years."
28
Then Jacob did so and fulfilled her week. So he gave him his daughter Rachel as wife also.
29
