Amplified Bible
Genesis 30:3-9
3She said, “Here, take my maid Bilhah and go in to her; and [when the baby comes] she shall deliver it [while sitting] on my knees, so that by her I may also have children [to count as my own].”
4So she gave him Bilhah her maid as a [secondary] wife, and Jacob went in to her.
5Bilhah conceived and gave birth to a son for Jacob.
6Then Rachel said, “God has judged and vindicated me, and has heard my plea and has given me a son [through my maid].” So she named him Dan (He judged).
7Bilhah, Rachel’s maid, conceived again and gave birth to a second son for Jacob.
8So Rachel said, “With mighty wrestlings [in prayer to God] I have struggled with my sister and have prevailed.” So she named him Naphtali (my wrestlings).
9When Leah saw that she had stopped bearing [children], she took Zilpah her maid and gave her to Jacob as a [secondary] wife.
