Genesis 30:1-14

Now when Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister, and said to Jacob, “Give me children, or else I die!”

2  And Jacob’s anger was aroused against Rachel, and he said, “Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?”

3  So she said, “Here is my maid Bilhah; go in to her, and she will bear a child on my knees, that I also may have children by her.”

4  Then she gave him Bilhah her maid as wife, and Jacob went in to her.

5  And Bilhah conceived and bore Jacob a son.

6  Then Rachel said, “God has judged my case; and He has also heard my voice and given me a son.”  Therefore she called his name Dn.

7  And Rachel’s maid Bilhah conceived again and bore Jacob  a second son.

8  Then Rachel said, “With great wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister, and indeed I have prevailed.”  So she called his name Naphtali.

9  When Leah saw that she had stopped bearing, she took Zilpah her maid and gave her to Jacob as wife.

10  And Leah’s maid Zilpah bore Jacob a son.

11  Then Lead said, “A troop come!”  So she called his name Gad.

12  And Leah’s maid Zilpah bore Jacob a second son.

13  Then Leah said, “I am happy for the daughters will call me blessed.”  So she called his name Asher.

14  Now Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah.  Then Rachel said to Leah, “Please give me some of your son’s mandrakes.”
