English: Jacob Talks with Laban; caption: "Jacob has come to Rachel's home. He is talking with her father. Her father's name is Laban. Jacob is asking Laban if Rachel may not be his wife. Laban says that if Jacob will stay and work for him a long time and take care of his flocks, then Rachel shall be his wife. So Jacob stayed and worked for Laban many years. He took care of Laban's sheep, and goats, and camels; and afterward Laban gave Rachel to him for his wife."
