And when Rachel
<07354>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that she bare
<03205> (8804)
Jacob
<03290>
no children, Rachel
<07354>
envied
<07065> (8762)
her sister
<0269>_;
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto Jacob
<03290>_,
Give
<03051> (8798)
me children
<01121>_,
or else
<0369>
I die
<04191> (8801)_.
And Jacob's
<03290>
anger
<0639>
was kindled
<02734> (8799)
against Rachel
<07354>_:
and he said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Am] I in God's
<0430>
stead, who hath withheld
<04513> (8804)
from thee the fruit
<06529>
of the womb
<0990>_?
And she said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold my maid
<0519>
Bilhah
<01090>_,
go in
<0935> (8798)
unto her; and she shall bear
<03205> (8799)
upon my knees
<01290>_,
that I may also have children
<01129> (8735)
by her. {have...: Heb. be built by her}
And she gave
<05414> (8799)
him Bilhah
<01090>
her handmaid
<08198>
to wife
<0802>_:
and Jacob
<03290>
went in
<0935> (8799)
unto her.
And Bilhah
<01090>
conceived
<02029> (8799)_,
and bare
<03205> (8799)
Jacob
<03290>
a son
<01121>_.
And Rachel
<07354>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
God
<0430>
hath judged
<01777> (8804)
me, and hath also heard
<08085> (8804)
my voice
<06963>_,
and hath given
<05414> (8799)
me a son
<01121>_:
therefore called
<07121> (8804)
she his name
<08034>

<01835>_.

Jacob
<03290>
a second
<08145>
son
<01121>_.
And Rachel
<07354>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
With great
<0430>
wrestlings
<05319>
have I wrestled
<06617> (8738)
with my sister
<0269>_,
and I have prevailed
<03201> (8804)_:
and she called
<07121> (8799)
his name
<08034>
Naphtali
<05321>_.
{great...: Heb. wrestlings of God} {Naphtali: that is, My wrestling: Gr. Nephthalim}
When Leah

saw
<07200> (8799)

<03205> (8800)_,
she took
<03947> (8799)
Zilpah
<02153>
her maid
<08198>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
her Jacob
<03290>

<03812>
maid
<08198>

A troop
<01409>
cometh
<0935> (8804)_:

a second
<08145>
son
<01121>_.
And Leah
<03812>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Happy am I
<0837>_,
for the daughters
<01323>
will call me blessed
<0833> (8765)_:

<0836>_.
{Happy...: Heb. In my happiness} {Asher: that is, Happy}
And Reuben

went in
<03212> (8799)
the days

<07105>_,
and found
<04672> (8799)

<01736>
in the field
<07704>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
them unto his mother
<0517>
Leah
<03812>_.
Then Rachel
<07354>
said
<0559> (8799)

<03812>_,
Give me
<05414> (8798)_,
I pray thee, of thy son's
<01121>
mandrakes
<01736>_.
And she said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, [Is it] a small matter
<04592>
that thou hast taken
<03947> (8800)
my husband
<0376>_?
and wouldest thou take away
<03947> (8800)
my son's
<01121>
mandrakes
<01736>
also? And Rachel
<07354>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Therefore he shall lie
<07901> (8799)
with thee to night
<03915>
for
<08478>
thy son's
<01121>
mandrakes
<01736>_.
And Jacob
<03290>
came
<0935> (8799)
out of the field
<07704>
in the evening
<06153>_,

thee with my son's
<01121>
mandrakes
<01736>_.

<0430>
hath endued
<02064> (8804)

dowry
<02065>_;
now
<06471>
will my husband
<0376>

<02082> (8799)
with me, because I have born
<03205> (8804)
him six

<01783>_.
{Dinah: that is Judgment}
And God
<0430>
remembered
<02142> (8799)
Rachel
<07354>_,
and God

his name
<08034>

<03130>_;
and said
<0559> (8800)_,
