Genesis 29:24-28 Amplified Bible (AMP)

24. And Laban gave Zilpah his maid to his daughter Leah to be her maid.

25. But in the morning [Jacob saw his wife, and] behold, it was Leah! And he said to Laban, What is this you have done to me? Did I not work for you [all those seven years] for Rachel? Why then have you deceived and cheated and thrown me down [like this]?

26. And Laban said, It is not permitted in our country to give the younger [in marriage] before the elder.

27. Finish the [wedding feast] week [for Leah]; then we will give you [Rachel] also, and you shall work for me yet seven more years in return.

28. So Jacob complied and fulfilled [Leah's] week; then [Laban] gave him Rachel his daughter as his wife.
