Tree Of Life Version

Genesis 29:24-31 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

24. Laban also gave her Zilpah his female servant to his daughter Leah as a female servant.

25. So when it was morning, behold there she was, Leah! So he said to Laban, “What is this you’ve done to me? Wasn’t it for Rachel that I worked with you? So why have you deceived me?”

26. But Laban said, “It’s not done so in our place—to give the younger before the first-born.

27. Complete the bridal week for this one. Then we’ll also give you this other—for work that you’ll do with me—another seven years more.”

28. So Jacob did; he also completed this one’s bridal week. Then he gave him his daughter Rachel to be his wife.

29. Laban also gave his daughter Rachel his female servant Bilhah, to be a servant for her.

30. Jacob also went to Rachel and indeed loved Rachel more than Leah. So he served with him for yet another seven years.

31. Now Adonai saw that Leah was unloved, so he opened her womb; but Rachel was unable to conceive.
