27. Complete this week of wedding celebration, and we will also give you this younger one in return for working yet another seven years for me.”
28. And Jacob did just that. He finished the week of celebration, and Laban gave him his daughter Rachel as his wife.
29. And Laban gave his slave Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as her slave.
30. Jacob slept with Rachel also, and indeed, he loved Rachel more than Leah. And he worked for Laban another seven years.
31. When the Lord saw that Leah was unloved, He opened her womb; but Rachel was unable to conceive.
32. Leah conceived, gave birth to a son, and named him Reuben, for she said, “The Lord has seen my affliction; surely my husband will love me now.”
33. She conceived again, gave birth to a son, and said, “The Lord heard that I am unloved and has given me this son also.” So she named him Simeon.
34. She conceived again, gave birth to a son, and said, “At last, my husband will become attached to me because I have borne three sons for him.” Therefore he was named Levi.
35. And she conceived again, gave birth to a son, and said, “This time I will praise the Lord.” Therefore she named him Judah. Then Leah stopped having children.
