24 Y dió Labán su sierva Zilpa á su hija Lea por criada.
25 Y venida la mañana, he aquí que era Lea: y él dijo á Labán: ¿Qué es esto que me has hecho? ¿no te he servido por Rachêl? ¿por qué, pues, me has engañado?
26 Y Labán respondió: No se hace así en nuestro lugar, que se dé la menor antes de la mayor.
27 Cumple la semana de ésta, y se te dará también la otra, por el servicio que hicieres conmigo otros siete años.
28 E hizo Jacob así, y cumplió la semana de aquélla: y él le dió á Rachêl su hija por mujer.
