14 And Laban said to him, Surely thou art my bone and my flesh. And he abode with him the space of a month.

16 And Laban had two daughters. The name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
17 And Leah`s eyes were tender. But Rachel was beautiful and well favored.
18 And Jacob loved Rachel. And he 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 unto him but a few days, for the love he had to her.
