Genesis 29:16-20 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

16. Now Laban had two daughters. The older was Leah, and the younger was Rachel.

17. Leah had weak eyes, but Rachel was very beautiful.

18. Jacob loved Rachel. So he said to Laban, “Let me marry your younger daughter Rachel. If you will, I will work seven years for you.”

19. Laban said, “It would be better for her to marry you than someone else. So stay here with me.”

20. So Jacob worked for Laban seven years so he could marry Rachel. But they seemed to him like just a few days. This was because he loved Rachel very much.
