He embraced him and kissed him and brought him to his home, where Jacob told him all that had happened. 14Then Laban declared, “You are indeed my own flesh and blood.” After Jacob had stayed with him a month,15Laban said to him, “Just because you are my relative, should you work for nothing? Tell me what your wages should be.”
