13It happened, when Laban heard the news of Jacob, his sister`s son, that he ran to meet Jacob, and embraced him, and kissed him, and brought him to his house. Jacob told Laban all these things.
14Laban said to him, Surely you are my bone and my flesh. He lived with him for a month.
15Laban said to Jacob, "Because you are my brother, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what will your wages be?"
16Laban had two daughters. The name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
17Leah`s eyes were weak, but Rachel was beautiful and well favored.
18Jacob loved Rachel. He said, "I will serve you seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter."
19Laban said, "It is better that I give her to you, than that I should give her to another man. Stay with me."
