The sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin.

Since Jacob had fallen in love with ¹  Rachel, he said, “I’ll serve you seven years in exchange for your younger daughter Rachel.”

Then Jacob kissed Rachel and began to weep loudly. ¹ 

Leah’s eyes were tender, ¹  but Rachel had a lovely figure and beautiful appearance.) ² 

(Laban gave his female servant Bilhah to his daughter Rachel to be her servant.) ¹ 

So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem). ¹ 

The sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s servant, were Dan and Naphtali.

The sons of Rachel the wife of Jacob: Joseph and Benjamin.

Jacob ¹  had marital relations ²  with Rachel as well. He loved Rachel more than Leah, so he worked for Laban ³  for seven more years. ⁴ 

Bilhah, Rachel’s servant, became pregnant again and gave Jacob another son. ¹ 

(Now Laban had two daughters; ¹  the older one was named Leah, and the younger one Rachel.

When the Lord saw that Leah was unloved, ¹  he enabled her to become pregnant ²  while Rachel remained childless.

Then God took note of ¹  Rachel. He paid attention to her and enabled her to become pregnant. ² 

So Jacob sent a message for Rachel and Leah ¹  to come to the field ²  where his flocks were. ³ 

While Laban had gone to shear his sheep, ¹  Rachel stole the household idols ²  that belonged to her father.

These were the sons of Rachel who were born to Jacob, fourteen in all.

“A voice was heard in Ramah, weeping and loud wailing, ¹  Rachel weeping for her children, and she did not want to be comforted, because they were ²  gone.” ³ 

“Is he well?” ¹  Jacob asked. They replied, “He is well. ²  Now look, here comes his daughter Rachel with the sheep.”

While he was still speaking with them, Rachel arrived with her father’s sheep, for she was tending them. ¹ 

When Jacob explained ¹  to Rachel that he was a relative of her father ²  and the son of Rebekah, she ran and told her father.
