21 Then Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her.”

22 And Laban gathered all the men of the place and made a feast.

23 Now it happened in the evening that he took his daughter Leah and brought her to him; and Jacob went in to her.

24 Laban also gave his servant-woman Zilpah to his daughter Leah as a servant-woman.

25 Now it happened 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 with you? Why then have you deceived me?”

26 But Laban said, “It is not the practice in our place to give the younger before the firstborn.

27 Fulfill the week of this one, and we will give you the other also for the service which you shall serve with me for another seven years.”
