     ʻElua mau kaikamāhine a Labana, ʻo Lea ka inoa o ka mua, a ʻo Rāhela ka inoa o ka muli iho. He maka wai ko Lea; akā, ua maikaʻi ʻo Rāhela ke nānā aku, a ua maikaʻi kona helehelena. Aloha akula ʻo Iakoba iā Rāhela: ʻī akula ia, E hoʻoikaika aku nō au i kāu hana i nā makahiki ʻehiku no Rāhela, no kāu kaikamahine muli iho.

     And Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel. Leah was tender eyed; but Rachel was beautiful and well favoured. And Jacob loved Rachel; and said, I will serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter.
