And when Rachel{H7354} saw{H7200} that she bare{H3205} Jacob{H3290} no children, Rachel{H7354} envied{H7065} her sister;{H269} and she said{H559} unto Jacob,{H3290} Give{H3051} me children,{H1121} or else{H369} I die.{H4191}

And Jacob's{H3290} anger{H639} was kindled{H2734} against Rachel:{H7354} and he said,{H559} Am I in God's{H430} stead, who hath withheld{H4513} from thee the fruit{H6529} of the womb?{H990}

And she said,{H559} Behold, my maid{H519} Bilhah,{H1090} go in{H935} unto her; that she may bear{H3205} upon my knees,{H1290} and I also may obtain children{H1129} by her.

And she gave{H5414} him Bilhah{H1090} her handmaid{H8198} to wife:{H802} and Jacob{H3290} went in{H935} unto her.

And Bilhah{H1090} conceived,{H2029} and bare{H3205} Jacob{H3290} a son.{H1121}

And Rachel{H7354} said,{H559} God{H430} hath judged{H1777} me, and hath also heard{H8085} my voice,{H6963} and hath given{H5414} me a son:{H1121} therefore called{H7121} she his name{H8034} Dan.{H1835}

And Bilhah{H1090} Rachel's{H7354} handmaid{H8198} conceived{H2029} again, and bare{H3205} Jacob{H3290} a second{H8145} son.{H1121}

And Rachel{H7354} said,{H559} With mighty{H430} wrestlings{H5319} have I wrestled{H6617} with my sister,{H269} and have prevailed:{H3201} and she called{H7121} his name{H8034} Naphtali.{H5321}

When Leah{H3812} saw{H7200} that she had left{H5975} off bearing,{H3205} she took{H3947} Zilpah{H2153} her handmaid,{H8198} and gave{H5414} her to Jacob{H3290} to wife.{H802}

And Zilpah{H2153} Leah's{H3812} handmaid{H8198} bare{H3205} Jacob{H3290} a son.{H1121}

And Leah{H3812} said,{H559} Fortunate!{H1409} and{H935} she called{H7121} his name{H8034} Gad.{H1410}

And Zilpah{H2153} Leah's{H3812} handmaid{H8198} bare{H3205} Jacob{H3290} a second{H8145} son.{H1121}

And Leah{H3812} said,{H559} Happy am I!{H837} for the daughters{H1323} will call me happy:{H833} and she called{H7121} his name{H8034} Asher.{H836}

And Reuben{H7205} went in{H3212} the days{H3117} of wheat{H2406} harvest,{H7105} and found{H4672} mandrakes{H1736} in the field,{H7704} and brought{H935} them unto his mother{H517} Leah.{H3812} Then Rachel{H7354} said{H559} to Leah,{H3812} Give me,{H5414} I pray thee, of thy son's{H1121} mandrakes.{H1736}

And she said{H559} unto her, Is it a small matter{H4592} that thou hast taken{H3947} away{H3947} my husband?{H376} and wouldest thou take away{H3947} my son's{H1121} mandrakes{H1736} also? And Rachel{H7354} said,{H559} Therefore he shall lie{H7901} with thee to-night for{H8478} thy son's{H1121} mandrakes.{H1736}

And Jacob{H3290} came{H935} from the field{H7704} in the evening,{H6153} and Leah{H3812} went out{H3318} to meet{H7125} him, and said,{H559} Thou must come in{H935} unto me; for I have surely{H7936} hired{H7936} thee with my son's{H1121} mandrakes.{H1736} And he lay{H7901} with her that night.{H3915}

And God{H430} hearkened{H8085} unto Leah,{H3812} and she conceived,{H2029} and bare{H3205} Jacob{H3290} a fifth{H2549} son.{H1121}

And Leah{H3812} said,{H559} God{H430} hath given{H5414} me my hire,{H7939} because{H834} I gave{H5414} my handmaid{H8198} to my husband:{H376} and she called{H7121} his name{H8034} Issachar.{H3485}

And Leah{H3812} conceived{H2029} again, and bare{H3205} a sixth{H8345} son{H1121} to Jacob.{H3290}

And Leah{H3812} said,{H559} God{H430} hath endowed{H2064} me with a good{H2896} dowry;{H2065} now{H6471} will my husband{H376} dwell{H2082} with me, because I have borne{H3205} him six{H8337} sons:{H1121} and she called{H7121} his name{H8034} Zebulun.{H2074}

And afterwards{H310} she bare{H3205} a daughter,{H1323} and called{H7121} her name{H8034} Dinah.{H1783}

And God{H430} remembered{H2142} Rachel,{H7354} and God{H430} hearkened{H8085} to her, and opened{H6605} her womb.{H7358}

And she conceived,{H2029} and bare{H3205} a son:{H1121} and said,{H559} God{H430} hath taken away{H622} my reproach:{H2781}

and she called{H7121} his name{H8034} Joseph,{H3130} saying,{H559} Jehovah{H3068} add{H3254} to me another{H312} son.{H1121}

And it came to pass, when Rachel{H7354} had borne{H3205} Joseph,{H3130} that Jacob{H3290} said{H559} unto Laban,{H3837} Send me away,{H7971} that I may go{H3212} unto mine own place,{H4725} and to my country.{H776}

Give{H5414} me my wives{H802} and my children{H3206} for{H2004} whom I have served{H5647} thee, and let me go:{H3212} for thou knowest{H3045} my service{H5656} wherewith I have served{H5647} thee.

And Laban{H3837} said{H559} unto him, If now I have found{H4672} favor{H2580} in thine eyes,{H5869} tarry: for I have divined{H5172} that Jehovah{H3068} hath blessed{H1288} me for thy sake.{H1558}

And he said,{H559} Appoint{H5344} me thy wages,{H7939} and I will give{H5414} it.

And he said{H559} unto him, Thou knowest{H3045} how{H834} I have served{H5647} thee, and how{H834} thy cattle{H4735} have fared with me.

For it was little{H4592} which thou hadst before I{H6440} came, and it hath increased{H6555} unto a multitude;{H7230} and Jehovah{H3068} hath blessed{H1288} thee whithersoever I turned:{H7272} and now when{H4970} shall I provide{H6213} for mine own house{H1004} also?

And he said,{H559} What shall I give thee?{H5414} And Jacob{H3290} said,{H559} Thou shalt not give{H5414} me aught:{H3972} if thou wilt do{H6213} this thing{H1697} for me, I will again{H7725} feed{H7462} thy flock{H6629} and keep{H8104} it.

I will pass{H5674} through all thy flock{H6629} to-day,{H3117} removing{H5493} from thence every speckled{H5348} and spotted{H2921} one,{H7716} and every black{H2345} one{H7716} among the sheep,{H3775} and the spotted{H2921} and speckled{H5348} among the goats:{H5795} and [of such] shall be my hire.{H7939}

So shall my righteousness{H6666} answer{H6030} for me hereafter,{H3117} when{H4279} thou shalt come{H935} concerning my hire{H7939} that is before thee:{H6440} every one{H3605} that is not speckled{H5348} and spotted{H2921} among the goats,{H5795} and black{H2345} among the sheep,{H3775} that, [if found] with me, shall be counted stolen.{H1589}

And Laban{H3837} said,{H559} Behold, I would it might be{H3863} according to thy word.{H1697}

And he removed{H5493} that day{H3117} the he-goats{H8495} that were ringstreaked{H6124} and spotted,{H2921} and all the she-goats{H5795} that were speckled{H5348} and spotted,{H2921} every one that had white{H3836} in it, and all the black{H2345} ones among the sheep,{H3775} and gave{H5414} them into the hand{H3027} of his sons;{H1121}

and he set{H7760} three{H7969} days'{H3117} journey{H1870} betwixt himself and Jacob:{H3290} and Jacob{H3290} fed{H7462} the rest{H3498} of Laban's{H3837} flocks.{H6629}

And Jacob{H3290} took{H3947} him rods{H4731} of fresh{H3892} poplar,{H3839} and of the almond{H3869} and of the plane-tree;{H6196} and peeled{H6478} white{H3836} streaks{H6479} in them, and made the white{H3836} appear{H4286} which was in the rods.{H4731}

And he set{H3322} the rods{H4731} which he had peeled{H6478} over{H5227} against the flocks{H6629} in the gutters{H7298} in the watering-troughs{H4325} where{H8268} the flocks{H6629} came{H935} to drink;{H8354} and they conceived{H3179} when they came{H935} to drink.{H8354}

And the flocks{H6629} conceived{H3179} before the rods,{H4731} and the flocks{H6629} brought forth{H3205} ringstreaked,{H6124} speckled,{H5348} and spotted.{H2921}

And Jacob{H3290} separated{H6504} the lambs,{H3775} and set{H5414} the faces{H6440} of the flocks{H6629} toward{H413} the ringstreaked{H6124} and all the black{H2345} in the flock{H6629} of Laban:{H3837} and he put{H7896} his own droves{H5739} apart, and put{H7896} them not unto Laban's{H3837} flock.{H6629}

And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger{H7194} of the flock{H6629} did conceive,{H3179} that Jacob{H3290} laid{H7760} the rods{H4731} before the eyes{H5869} of the flock{H6629} in the gutters,{H7298} that they might conceive{H3179} among the rods;{H4731}

but when the flock{H6629} were feeble,{H5848} he put them not in:{H7760} so the feebler{H5848} were Laban's,{H3837} and the stronger{H7194} Jacob's.{H3290}

And the man{H376} increased{H6555} exceedingly,{H3966} and had large{H7227} flocks,{H6629} and maid-servants{H8198} and men-servants,{H5650} and camels{H1581} and asses.{H2543}
