30And he wentH935 in alsoH1571 unto RachelH7354, and he lovedH157 alsoH1571 RachelH7354 more than LeahH3812, and servedH5647 with him yetH5750 sevenH7651 otherH312 yearsH8141.

31And Jehovah sawH7200 that LeahH3812 was hatedH8130, and he openedH6605 her wombH7358: but RachelH7354 was barrenH6135. 32And LeahH3812 conceivedH2029, and bare a sonH1121, and she calledH7121 his nameH8034 ReubenH7205: for she saidH559, Because Jehovah hath lookedH7200 upon my affliction; for nowH6258 my husbandH376 will loveH157 me. 33And she conceivedH2029 againH5750, and bare a sonH1121: and saidH559, Because Jehovah hath heardH8085 that I am hatedH8130, he hath therefore givenH5414 me this sonH1121 alsoH1571: and she calledH7121 his nameH8034 SimeonH8095. 34And she conceivedH2029 againH5750, and bare a sonH1121; and saidH559, NowH6258 this timeH6471 will my husbandH376 be joined unto me, because I have borneH3205 him threeH7969 sonsH1121: thereforeH3651 was his nameH8034 calledH7121 LeviH3878.
