וְלָא אִישִׁין לְמַכְנְשָׁא:

Targum Jerusalem, trans. J. W. Etheridge, London, 1862

It is not time to gather.

וְעֵינֵי דְלֵאָה הֲוָון רַכִּיכַן עַל דַהֲוַת בַּכְיָא וּמַצְלָא דְלָא תִיסוּק בְּמַזְלֵיהּ דְעֵשָו וְרָחֵל הֲוָת יָיָא בְּרֵיוָא וְשַׁפִּירָא בְּחֶזְוָא:

Targum Jerusalem, trans. J. W. Etheridge, London, 1862

And the eyes of Leah were tender, for she had wept and prayed that she might not be brought up in the lot of Esau; and Rahel was beautiful in appearance, and of fair countenance.

וּכְנַשׁ לָבָן יַת כָּל עַמָא דְאַתְרָא וַעֲבַד שֵׁירוּי עָנֵי לָבָן וַאֲמַר לְהוֹן הָא שְׁבַע שְׁנִין אִית לֵיהּ לְגַבְרָא צַדִיקָא הָדֵין מִן דַאֲתָא לְוָותָן שַׁקְוָותָן לָא חָסְרוּ וּמַבּוּעִינָן סַגְיָין וּכְדוּן אָתוּן הָבוּ לִי עֵצָה דְנִכְבּוֹש יָתֵיהּ גַבָּן עוֹד שְׁבַע שְׁנִין וִיהָבוּ לֵיהּ עֵצָה דִרְמִיוּ לְמִסְבָהּ לֵיהּ לְלֵאָה חֲלַף רָחֵל:

Targum Jerusalem, trans. J. W. Etheridge, London, 1862

And Laban gathered all the people of the place, and made a feast. And Laban answered and said to them, Behold seven years are from the coming of this just man to us; our waterings have not failed, and our springs are many: and now come, give me counsel how we may settle (or subject) him among us yet seven years. And they gave him cunning counsel to take Leah to him instead of Rahel.

אַשְׁלִים שִׁבְעָתֵי יוֹמֵי מִשְׁתּוּתָא דְלֵאָה וְאֶתֵּן:

Targum Jerusalem, trans. J. W. Etheridge, London, 1862

Fulfil the seven days of this feast of Leah, and I will give.
