That evening, Laban took his daughter Leah and gave her to Jacob, and he slept with her.
When Leah saw that she had stopped having children, she took her slave Zilpah and gave her to Jacob as a wife.
But Leah replied to her, “Isn’t it enough that you have taken my husband? Now you also want to take my son’s mandrakes? ”
“Well then,” Rachel said, “he can sleep with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”
Jacob then took branches of fresh poplar, almond, and plane wood, and peeled the bark, exposing white stripes on the branches.

“Please take my present that was brought to you, because God has been gracious to me and I have everything I need.” So Jacob urged him until he accepted.
