KJ2000(i)
1 And when Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.
2 And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in God's stead, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?
3 And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in unto her; and she shall bear upon my knees, that I may also have children by her.
4 And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid as his wife: and Jacob went in unto her.
5 And Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
6 And Rachel said, God has judged me, and has also heard my voice, and has given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.
7 And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived again, and bore Jacob a second son.
8 And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali.
9 When Leah saw that she had ceased bearing, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her to Jacob as his wife.
10 And Zilpah Leah's maid bore Jacob a son.
11 And Leah said, A troop comes: and she called his name Gad.
12 And Zilpah Leah's maid bore Jacob a second son.
13 And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed: and she called his name Asher.
14 And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them unto his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray you, of your son's mandrakes.
15 And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that you have taken my husband? and would you take away my son's mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with you tonight for your son's mandrakes.
16 And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, You must come in unto me; for surely I have hired you with my son's mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.
17 And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bore Jacob the fifth son.
18 And Leah said, God has given me my reward, because I have given my maiden to my husband: and she called his name Issachar.
19 And Leah conceived again, and bore Jacob the sixth son.
20 And Leah said, God has endued me with a good dowry; now will my husband dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons: and she called his name Zebulun.
21 And afterwards she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
22 And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.
23 And she conceived, and bore a son; and said, God has taken away my reproach:
24 And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD shall add to me another son.
