18 Jacob aimait Rachel, et il dit: Je te servirai sept ans pour Rachel, ta fille cadette.
19 Et Laban dit: J’aime mieux te la donner que de la donner à un autre homme. Reste chez moi!
20 Ainsi Jacob servit sept années pour Rachel: et elles furent à ses yeux comme quelques jours, parce qu’il l’aimait.

22 Laban réunit tous les gens du lieu, et fit un festin.
