Genesis 29
King James Version Help
29Then Jacob went on his journey, and came into the land of the people of the east.H3290H5375H7272H3212H776H1121H6924
2And he looked, and behold a well in the field, and, lo, there were three flocks of sheep lying by it; for out of that well they watered the flocks: and a great stone was upon the well's mouth.H7200H875H7704H7969H5739H6629H7257H875H8248H5739H1419H68H875H6310
3And thither were all the flocks gathered: and they rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the sheep, and put the stone again upon the well's mouth in his place.H5739H622H1556H68H875H6310H8248H6629H7725H68H7725H875H6310H4725
4And Jacob said unto them, My brethren, whence be ye? And they said, Of Haran are we.H3290H559H251H370H559H2771
5And he said unto them, Know ye Laban the son of Nahor? And they said, We know him.H559H3045H3837H1121H5152H559H3045
6And he said unto them, Is he well? And they said, He is well: and, behold, Rachel his daughter cometh with the sheep.H559H7965H559H7965H7354H1323H935H6629
7And he said, Lo, it is yet high day, neither is it time that the cattle should be gathered together: water ye the sheep, and go and feed them.H559H2005H1419H3117H6256H4735H622H8248H6629H3212H7462
8And they said, We cannot, until all the flocks be gathered together, and till they roll the stone from the well's mouth; then we water the sheep.H559H3201H5739H622H1556H68H875H6310H8248H6629
9And while he yet spake with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep: for she kept them.H5750H1696H7354H935H1H6629H7462
10And it came to pass, when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban his mother's brother, that Jacob went near, and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.H3290H7200H7354H1323H3837H517H251H6629H3837H517H251H3290H5066H1556H68H875H6310H8248H6629H3837H517H251
11And Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice, and wept.H3290H5401H7354H5375H6963H1058
12And Jacob told Rachel that he was her father's brother, and that he was Rebekah's son: and she ran and told her father.H3290H5046H7354H1H251H7259H1121H7323H5046H1
13And it came to pass, when Laban heard the tidings of Jacob his sister's son, that he ran to meet him, and embraced him, and kissed him, and brought him to his house. And he told Laban all these things.H3837H8085H8088H3290H269H1121H7323H7125H2263H5401H935H1004H5608H3837H1697
14And Laban said to him, Surely thou art my bone and my flesh. And he abode with him the space of a month.H3837H559H389H6106H1320H3427H3117H2320
15And Laban said unto Jacob, Because thou art my brother, shouldest thou therefore serve me for nought? tell me, what shall thy wages be?H3837H559H3290H251H5647H2600H5046H4909
16And Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.H3837H8147H1323H8034H1419H3812H8034H6996H7354
17Leah was tender eyed; but Rachel was beautiful and well favoured.H3812H7390H5869H7354H3303H8389H3303H4758
18And Jacob loved Rachel; and said, I will serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter.H3290H157H7354H559H5647H7651H8141H7354H6996H1323
19And Laban said, It is better that I give her to thee, than that I should give her to another man: abide with me.H3837H559H2896H5414H5414H312H376H3427
20And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they seemed unto him but a few days, for the love he had to her.H3290H5647H7651H8141H7354H5869H259H3117H160
21And Jacob said unto Laban, Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in unto her.H3290H559H3837H3051H802H3117H4390H935
22And Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a feast.H3837H622H582H4725H6213H4960
23And it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter, and brought her to him; and he went in unto her.H6153H3947H3812H1323H935H935
24And Laban gave unto his daughter Leah Zilpah his maid for an handmaid.H3837H5414H1323H3812H2153H8198H8198
25And it came to pass, that in the morning, behold, it was Leah: and he said to Laban, What is this thou hast done unto me? did not I serve with thee for Rachel? wherefore then hast thou beguiled me?H1242H3812H559H3837H6213H5647H7354H7411
26And Laban said, It must not be so done in our country, to give the younger before the firstborn.H3837H559H6213H4725H5414H6810H6440H1067
27Fulfil her week, and we will give thee this also for the service which thou shalt serve with me yet seven other years.H4390H2063H7620H5414H5656H5647H7651H312H8141
28And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week: and he gave him Rachel his daughter to wife also.H3290H6213H4390H7620H5414H7354H1323H802
29And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his handmaid to be her maid.H3837H5414H7354H1323H1090H8198H8198
30And he went in also unto Rachel, and he loved also Rachel more than Leah, and served with him yet seven other years.H935H7354H157H7354H3812H5647H7651H312H8141
31And when the LORD saw that Leah was hated, he opened her womb: but Rachel was barren.H3068H7200H3812H8130H6605H7358H7354H6135
32And Leah conceived, and bare a son, and she called his name Reuben: for she said, Surely the LORD hath looked upon my affliction; now therefore my husband will love me.H3812H2029H3205H1121H7121H8034H7205H3588H559H3588H3068H7200H6040H3588H376H157
33And she conceived again, and bare a son; and said, Because the LORD hath heard that I was hated, he hath therefore given me this son also: and she called his name Simeon.H2029H3205H1121H559H3068H8085H8130H5414H7121H8034H8095
34And she conceived again, and bare a son; and said, Now this time will my husband be joined unto me, because I have born him three sons: therefore was his name called Levi.H2029H3205H1121H559H6471H376H3867H3205H7969H1121H8034H7121H3878
35And she conceived again, and bare a son: and she said, Now will I praise the LORD: therefore she called his name Judah; and left bearing.H2029H3205H1121H559H6471H3034H3068H7121H8034H3063H5975H3205
