And Laban gave Zilpah his handmaid to his daughter Leah for a handmaid.

And it came to pass in the morning that, behold, it was Leah. And he said to Laban, What is this thou have done to me? Did I not serve with thee for Rachel? Why then have thou beguiled me?

And he also went in to Rachel, and also he loved Rachel more than Leah, and served with him yet seven other years.

And Rachel and Leah answered and said to him, Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?
