11 Jacob kissed Rachel. Then he began to sob loudly.
12 He had told Rachel he was a relative of her father. He had also said he was Rebekah's son. Rachel ran and told her father what Jacob had said.
13 As soon as Laban heard the news about his sister's son Jacob, he hurried to meet him. Laban hugged Jacob and kissed him. Then he brought him to his home. There Jacob told him everything.
14 Then Laban said to him, "You are my own flesh and blood." Jacob stayed with Laban for a whole month.
15 Then Laban said to him, "You are one of my relatives. But is that any reason for you to work for me for nothing? Tell me what your pay should be."
16 Laban had two daughters. The name of the older one was Leah. And the name of the younger one was Rachel.
17 Leah had weak eyes. But Rachel was beautiful. She had a nice figure.
