Genesis 30:1-21

MSTC(i) 1 When Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, she envied her sister and said unto Jacob, "Give me children, or else I am but dead." 2 Then was Jacob wroth with Rachel saying, "Am I in God's stead which keepeth from thee the fruit of thy womb?" 3 Then she said, "Here is my maid, Bilhah: go in unto her, that she may bear upon my lap, that I may be increased 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 Then said Rachel, "God hath given sentence on my side, and hath also heard my voice, and hath given me a son." Therefore called she him Dan. 7 And Bilhah, Rachel's maid, conceived again; and bare Jacob another son. 8 And Rachel said, "God is turned, and I have made a change with my sister, and have gotten the upper hand." And she called his name Naphtali. 9 When Lea saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her Jacob to wife. 10 And Zilpah Lea's maid bare Jacob a son. 11 Then said Lea, "Good luck," and called his name Gad. 12 And Zilpah, Lea's maid, bare Jacob another son. 13 Then said Lea, "Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed." And called his name Asher. 14 And Reuben went out in the wheat harvest and found mandragoras in the fields, and brought them unto his mother Lea. Then said Rachel to Lea, "Give me of thy son's mandragoras." 15 And Lea answered, "Is it not enough, that thou hast taken away my husband, but wouldest take away my son's mandragoras also?" Then said Rachel, "Well, let him sleep with thee this night, for thy son's mandragoras." 16 And when Jacob came from the fields at even, Lea went out to meet him, and said, "Come in to me, for I have bought thee with my son's mandragoras." And he slept with her that night. 17 And God heard Lea, that she conceived and bare unto Jacob the fifth son. 18 Then said Lea, "God hath given me my reward, because I gave my maiden to my husband." And she called him Issachar. 19 And Lea conceived yet again and bare Jacob the sixth son. 20 Then said she, "God hath endued me with a good dowry. Now will my husband dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons." And called his name Zebulon. 21 After that she bare a daughter, and called her Dina.
