- 1
- Then Jacob continued on his journey and came to the land of the eastern peoples.
- 2
- There he saw a well in the field, with three flocks of sheep lying near it
- because the flocks were watered from that well.
- The stone over the mouth of the well was large.
- 3
- When all the flocks were gathered there, the shepherds would roll the stone away
- from the well's mouth and water the sheep. Then they would return
- the stone to its place over the mouth of the well.
- 4
- Jacob asked the shepherds, "My brothers, where are you from?"
- "We're from Haran," they replied.
- 5
- He said to them, "Do you know Laban, Nahor's grandson?"
- "Yes, we know him," they answered.
- 6
- Then Jacob asked them, "Is he well?" "Yes, he is," they said,
- "and here comes his daughter Rachel with the sheep."
- 7
- "Look," he said, "the sun is still high; it is not time for the flocks to be gathered.
- Water the sheep and take them back to pasture."
- 8
- "We can't," they replied, "until all the flocks are gathered and
- the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the well.
- Then we will water the sheep."
- 9
- While he was still talking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep,
- for she was a shepherdess.
- 10
- When Jacob saw Rachel daughter of Laban, his mother's brother,
- and Laban's sheep, he went over and rolled the stone away
- from the mouth of the well and watered his uncle's sheep.
- 11
- Then Jacob kissed Rachel and began to weep aloud.
- 12
- He had told Rachel that he was a relative of her father and a son of Rebekah.
- So she ran and told her father.
- 13
- As soon as Laban heard the news about Jacob, his sister's son,
- he hurried to meet him. He embraced him and kissed him
- and brought him to his home, and there Jacob told him all these things.
- 14
- Then Laban said to him, "You are my own flesh and blood."
- After Jacob had stayed with him for a whole month,
- 15
- Laban said to him, "Just because you are a relative of mine,
- should you work for me for nothing? Tell me what your wages should be."
- 16
- Now Laban had two daughters; the name of the older was Leah,
- and the name of the younger was Rachel.
- 17
- Leah had weak eyes, but Rachel was lovely in form, and beautiful.
- 18
- Jacob was in love with Rachel and said,
- "I'll work for you seven years in return for your younger daughter Rachel."
- 19
- Laban said, "It's better that I give her to you than to some other man.
- Stay here with me."
- 20
- So Jacob served seven years to get Rachel,
- but they seemed like only a few days to him because of his love for her.
- 21
- Then Jacob said to Laban, "Give me my wife.
- My time is completed, and I want to lie with her."
- 22
- So Laban brought together all the people of the place and gave a feast.
- 23
- But when evening came, he took his daughter Leah
- and gave her to Jacob, and Jacob lay with her.
- 24
- And Laban gave his servant girl Zilpah to his daughter as her maidservant.
- 25
- When morning came, there was Leah! So Jacob said to Laban,
- "What is this you have done to me? I served you for Rachel, didn't I?
- Why have you deceived me?"
- 26
- Laban replied, "It is not our custom here to give the younger daughter
- in marriage before the older one.
- 27
- Finish this daughter's bridal week; then we will give you the younger one also,
- in return for another seven years of work."
- 28
- And Jacob did so. He finished the week with Leah,
- and then Laban gave him his daughter Rachel to be his wife.
- 29
- Laban gave his servant girl Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as her maidservant.
- 30
- Jacob lay with Rachel also, and he loved Rachel more than Leah.
- And he worked for Laban another seven years.
- 31
- When the LORD saw that Leah was not loved,
- he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren.
- 32
- Leah became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She named him Reuben,
- for she said, "It is because the LORD has seen my misery.
- Surely my husband will love me now."
- 33
- She conceived again, and when she gave birth to a son she said,
- "Because the LORD heard that I am not loved, he gave me this one too."
- So she named him Simeon.
- 34
- Again she conceived, and when she gave birth to a son she said,
- "Now at last my husband will become attached to me,
- because I have borne him three sons." So he was named Levi.
- 35
- She conceived again, and when she gave birth to a son she said,
- "This time I will praise the LORD." So she named him Judah.
- Then she stopped having children.
