Genesis 29:25
Behold it was Leah - Jacob had cheated his own father when he pretended to be Esau, and now his father - in - law cheated him. Herein, how unrighteous soever Laban was, the Lord was righteous.
23 Now it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter and brought her to Jacob; and he went in to her.
24 And Laban gave his maid aZilpah to his daughter Leah as a maid.
25 So it came to pass in the morning, that behold, it was Leah. And he said to Laban, “What is this you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served you? Why then have you adeceived me?”
26 And Laban said, “It must not be done so in our1 country, to give the younger before the firstborn.
27 aFulfill her week, and we will give you this one also for the service which you will serve with me still another seven years.”
