  1 H7354 And when Rachel H7200 saw [H8799]   H3205 that she bare [H8804]   H3290 Jacob H7354 no children, Rachel H7065 envied [H8762]   H269 her sister H559 ; and said [H8799]   H3290 unto Jacob H3051 , Give [H8798]   H1121 me children H369 , or else H4191 I die [H8801]  .
  2 H3290 And Jacob's H639 anger H2734 was kindled [H8799]   H7354 against Rachel H559 : and he said [H8799]   H430 , Am I in God's H4513 stead, who hath withheld [H8804]   H6529 from thee the fruit H990 of the womb?
  3 H559 And she said [H8799]   H519 , Behold my maid H1090 Bilhah H935 , go in [H8798]   H3205 unto her; and she shall bear [H8799]   H1290 upon my knees H1129 , that I may also have children [H8735]   by her.
  4 H5414 And she gave [H8799]   H1090 him Bilhah H8198 her handmaid H802 to wife H3290 : and Jacob H935 went in [H8799]   unto her.
  5 H1090 And Bilhah H2029 conceived [H8799]   H3205 , and bare [H8799]   H3290 Jacob H1121 a son.
  6 H7354 And Rachel H559 said [H8799]   H430 , God H1777 hath judged [H8804]   H8085 me, and hath also heard [H8804]   H6963 my voice H5414 , and hath given [H8799]   H1121 me a son H7121 : therefore called [H8804]   H8034 she his name H1835 Dan.
  7 H1090 And Bilhah H7354 Rachel's H8198 maid H2029 conceived [H8799]   H3205 again, and bare [H8799]   H3290 Jacob H8145 a second H1121 son.
  8 H7354 And Rachel H559 said [H8799]   H430 , With great H5319 wrestlings H6617 have I wrestled [H8738]   H269 with my sister H3201 , and I have prevailed [H8804]   H7121 : and she called [H8799]   H8034 his name H5321 Naphtali.
  9 H3812 When Leah H7200 saw [H8799]   H5975 that she had left [H8804]   H3205 bearing [H8800]   H3947 , she took [H8799]   H2153 Zilpah H8198 her maid H5414 , and gave [H8799]   H3290 her Jacob H802 to wife.
  10 H2153 And Zilpah H3812 Leah's H8198 maid H3205 bare [H8799]   H3290 Jacob H1121 a son.
  11 H3812 And Leah H559 said [H8799]   H1409 , A troop H935 cometh [H8804]   H7121 : and she called [H8799]   H8034 his name H1410 Gad.
  12 H2153 And Zilpah H3812 Leah's H8198 maid H3205 bare [H8799]   H3290 Jacob H8145 a second H1121 son.
  13 H3812 And Leah H559 said [H8799]   H837 , Happy am I H1323 , for the daughters H833 will call me blessed [H8765]   H7121 : and she called [H8799]   H8034 his name H836 Asher.
  14 H7205 And Reuben H3212 went in [H8799]   H3117 the days H2406 of wheat H7105 harvest H4672 , and found [H8799]   H1736 mandrakes H7704 in the field H935 , and brought [H8686]   H517 them unto his mother H3812 Leah H7354 . Then Rachel H559 said [H8799]   H3812 to Leah H5414 , Give me [H8798]   H1121 , I pray thee, of thy son's H1736 mandrakes.
  15 H559 And she said [H8799]   H4592 unto her, Is it a small matter H3947 that thou hast taken [H8800]   H376 my husband H3947 ? and wouldest thou take away [H8800]   H1121 my son's H1736 mandrakes H7354 also? And Rachel H559 said [H8799]   H7901 , Therefore he shall lie [H8799]   H3915 with thee to night H8478 for H1121 thy son's H1736 mandrakes.
  16 H3290 And Jacob H935 came [H8799]   H7704 out of the field H6153 in the evening H3812 , and Leah H3318 went out [H8799]   H7125 to meet [H8800]   H559 him, and said [H8799]   H935 , Thou must come in [H8799]   H7936 unto me; for surely [H8800]   H7936 I have hired [H8804]   H1121 thee with my son's H1736 mandrakes H7901 . And he lay [H8799]   H3915 with her that night.
  17 H430 And God H8085 hearkened [H8799]   H3812 unto Leah H2029 , and she conceived [H8799]   H3205 , and bare [H8799]   H3290 Jacob H2549 the fifth H1121 son.
  18 H3812 And Leah H559 said [H8799]   H430 , God H5414 hath given [H8804]   H7939 me my hire H834 , because H5414 I have given [H8804]   H8198 my maiden H376 to my husband H7121 : and she called [H8799]   H8034 his name H3485 Issachar.
  19 H3812 And Leah H2029 conceived [H8799]   H3205 again, and bare [H8799]   H3290 Jacob H8345 the sixth H1121 son.
  20 H3812 And Leah H559 said [H8799]   H430 , God H2064 hath endued [H8804]   H2896 me with a good H2065 dowry H6471 ; now H376 will my husband H2082 dwell [H8799]   H3205 with me, because I have born [H8804]   H8337 him six H1121 sons H7121 : and she called [H8799]   H8034 his name H2074 Zebulun.
  21 H310 And afterwards H3205 she bare [H8804]   H1323 a daughter H7121 , and called [H8799]   H8034 her name H1783 Dinah.
  22 H430 And God H2142 remembered [H8799]   H7354 Rachel H430 , and God H8085 hearkened [H8799]   H6605 to her, and opened [H8799]   H7358 her womb.
  23 H2029 And she conceived [H8799]   H3205 , and bare [H8799]   H1121 a son H559 ; and said [H8799]   H430 , God H622 hath taken away [H8804]   H2781 my reproach:
  24 H7121 And she called [H8799]   H8034 his name H3130 Joseph H559 ; and said [H8800]   H3068 , The LORD H3254 shall add [H8686]   H312 to me another H1121 son.
  25 H7354 And it came to pass, when Rachel H3205 had born [H8804]   H3130 Joseph H3290 , that Jacob H559 said [H8799]   H3837 unto Laban H7971 , Send me away [H8761]   H3212 , that I may go [H8799]   H4725 unto mine own place H776 , and to my country.
  26 H5414 Give [H8798]   H802 me my wives H3206 and my children H2004 , for H5647 whom I have served [H8804]   H3212 thee, and let me go [H8799]   H3045 : for thou knowest [H8804]   H5656 my service H5647 which I have done [H8804]   thee.
  27 H3837 And Laban H559 said [H8799]   H4672 unto him, I pray thee, if I have found [H8804]   H2580 favour H5869 in thine eyes H5172 , tarry: for I have learned by experience [H8765]   H3068 that the LORD H1288 hath blessed [H8762]   H1558 me for thy sake.
  28 H559 And he said [H8799]   H5344 , Appoint [H8798]   H7939 me thy wages H5414 , and I will give [H8799]   it .
  29 H559 And he said [H8799]   H3045 unto him, Thou knowest [H8804]   H834 how H5647 I have served [H8804]   H834 thee, and how H4735 thy cattle was with me.
  30 H4592 For it was little H6440 which thou hadst before I H6555 came, and it is now increased [H8799]   H7230 unto a multitude H3068 ; and the LORD H1288 hath blessed [H8762]   H7272 thee since my coming H4970 : and now when H6213 shall I provide [H8799]   H1004 for mine own house also?
  31 H559 And he said [H8799]   H5414 , What shall I give thee [H8799]   H3290 ? And Jacob H559 said [H8799]   H5414 , Thou shalt not give [H8799]   H3972 me any thing H6213 : if thou wilt do [H8799]   H1697 this thing H7725 for me, I will again [H8799]   H7462 feed [H8799]   H8104 and keep [H8799]   H6629 thy flock:
  32 H5674 I will pass [H8799]   H6629 through all thy flock H3117 to day H5493 , removing [H8687]   H5348 from thence all the speckled H2921 and spotted [H8803]   H7716 cattle H2345 , and all the brown H7716 cattle H3775 among the sheep H2921 , and the spotted [H8803]   H5348 and speckled H5795 among the goats H7939 : and of such shall be my hire.
  33 H6666 So shall my righteousness H6030 answer [H8804]   H3117 for me in time H4279 to come H935 , when it shall come [H8799]   H7939 for my hire H6440 before thy face H3605 : every one H5348 that is not speckled H2921 and spotted [H8803]   H5795 among the goats H2345 , and brown H3775 among the sheep H1589 , that shall be counted stolen [H8803]   with me.
  34 H3837 And Laban H559 said [H8799]   H3863 , Behold, I would it might be H1697 according to thy word.
  35 H5493 And he removed [H8686]   H3117 that day H8495 the he goats H6124 that were ringstraked H2921 and spotted [H8803]   H5795 , and all the she goats H5348 that were speckled H2921 and spotted [H8803]   H3836 , and every one that had some white H2345 in it, and all the brown H3775 among the sheep H5414 , and gave [H8799]   H3027 them into the hand H1121 of his sons.
  36 H7760 And he set [H8799]   H7969 three H3117 days H1870 ' journey H3290 betwixt himself and Jacob H3290 : and Jacob H7462 fed [H8802]   H3498 the rest [H8737]   H3837 of Laban's H6629 flocks.
  37 H3290 And Jacob H3947 took [H8799]   H4731 him rods H3892 of green H3839 poplar H3869 , and of the hazel H6196 and chesnut tree H6478 ; and pilled [H8762]   H3836 white H6479 strakes H3836 in them, and made the white H4286 appear H4731 which was in the rods.
  38 H3322 And he set [H8686]   H4731 the rods H6478 which he had pilled [H8765]   H5227 before H6629 the flocks H7298 in the gutters H4325 in the watering H8268 troughs H6629 when the flocks H935 came [H8799]   H8354 to drink [H8800]   H3179 , that they should conceive [H8799]   H935 when they came [H8800]   H8354 to drink [H8800]  .
  39 H6629 And the flocks H3179 conceived [H8799]   H4731 before the rods H3205 , and brought forth [H8799]   H6629 cattle H6124 ringstraked H5348 , speckled H2921 , and spotted [H8803]  .
  40 H3290 And Jacob H6504 did separate [H8689]   H3775 the lambs H5414 , and set [H8799]   H6440 the faces H6629 of the flocks H413 toward H6124 the ringstraked H2345 , and all the brown H6629 in the flock H3837 of Laban H7896 ; and he put [H8799]   H5739 his own flocks H7896 by themselves, and put [H8804]   H3837 them not unto Laban's H6629 cattle.
  41 H7194 And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger [H8794]   H6629 cattle H3179 did conceive [H8763]   H3290 , that Jacob H7760 laid [H8804]   H4731 the rods H5869 before the eyes H6629 of the cattle H7298 in the gutters H3179 , that they might conceive [H8763]   H4731 among the rods.
  42 H6629 But when the cattle H5848 were feeble [H8687]   H7760 , he put them not in [H8799]   H5848 : so the feebler [H8803]   H3837 were Laban's H7194 , and the stronger [H8803]   H3290 Jacob's.
  43 H376 And the man H6555 increased [H8799]   H3966 exceedingly H3966   H7227 , and had much H6629 cattle H8198 , and maidservants H5650 , and menservants H1581 , and camels H2543 , and asses.
ERV(i) 1 And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and she 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 hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb? 3 And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in unto her; that she may bear upon my knees, and I also may obtain children by her. 4 And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in unto her. 5 And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son. 6 And Rachel said, God hath judged me, and hath also heard my voice, and hath given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan. 7 And Bilhah Rachel’s handmaid conceived again, and bare Jacob a second son. 8 And Rachel said, With mighty wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali. 9 When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her handmaid, and gave her to Jacob to wife. 10 And Zilpah Leah’s handmaid bare Jacob a son. 11 And Leah said, Fortunate! and she called his name Gad. 12 And Zilpah Leah’s handmaid bare Jacob a second son. 13 And Leah said, Happy am I! for the daughters will call me happy: 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 thee, of thy son’s mandrakes. 15 And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that thou hast taken away my husband? and wouldest thou take away my son’s mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with thee to-night for thy son’s mandrakes. 16 And Jacob came from the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, Thou must come in unto me; for I have surely hired thee with my son’s mandrakes. And he lay with her that night. 17 And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bare Jacob a fifth son. 18 And Leah said, God hath given me my hire, because I gave my handmaid to my husband: and she called his name Issachar. 19 And Leah conceived again, and bare a sixth son to Jacob. 20 And Leah said, God hath endowed 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 bare 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 bare a son: and said, God hath taken away my reproach: 24 and she called his name Joseph, saying, The LORD add to me another son. 25 And it came to pass, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own place, and to my country. 26 Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served thee, and let me go: for thou knowest my service wherewith I have served thee. 27 And Laban said unto him, If now I have found favour in thine eyes, [tarry]: [for] I have divined that the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake. 28 And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give it. 29 And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle hath fared with me. 30 For it was little which thou hadst before I came, and it hath increased unto a multitude; and the LORD hath blessed thee whithersoever I turned: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also? 31 And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me aught: if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will again feed thy flock and keep it. 32 I will pass through all thy flock today, removing from thence every speckled and spotted one, and every black one among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats: and [of such] shall be my hire. 33 So shall my righteousness answer for me hereafter, when thou shalt come concerning my hire that is before thee: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and black among the sheep, that [if found] with me shall be counted stolen. 34 And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to thy word. 35 And he removed that day the he-goats that were ringstraked and spotted, and all the she-goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had white in it, and all the black ones among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons; 36 and he set three days’ journey betwixt himself and Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban’s flocks. 37 And Jacob took him rods of fresh poplar, and of the almond and of the plane tree; and peeled white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods. 38 And he set the rods which he had peeled over against the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs where the flocks came to drink; and they conceived when they came to drink. 39 And the flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks brought forth ringstraked, speckled, and spotted. 40 And Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ringstraked and all the black in the flock of Laban; and he put his own droves apart, and put them not unto Laban’s flock. 41 And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger of the flock did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the flock in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods; 42 but when the flock were feeble, he put them not in: so the feebler were Laban’s, and the stronger Jacob’s. 43 And the man increased exceedingly, and had large flocks, and maidservants and menservants, and camels and asses.
