1Now when RachelH7354 sawH7200 that 1she boreH3205 JacobH3290 noH3808 children, 2she becameH7065 jealousH7065 of her sisterH269; and she saidH559 to JacobH3290, “3GiveH3051 me childrenH1121, or elseH518H369 I dieH4191.” 2Then Jacob’sH3290 angerH639 burnedH2734 against RachelH7354, and he saidH559, “Am I in the placeH8478 of GodH430, whoH834 has 4withheldH4513 from you the fruitH6529 of the wombH990?” 3She saidH559, “5HereH2009 is my maidH519 BilhahH1090, goH935 in to her that she may 6bearH3205 on my kneesH1290, that 78throughH4480 her I tooH1571 may haveH1129 childrenH1129.” 4So 9she gaveH5414 him her maidH8198 BilhahH1090 as a wifeH802, and JacobH3290 wentH935 in to her. 5BilhahH1090 conceivedH2029 and boreH3205 JacobH3290 a sonH1121. 6Then RachelH7354 saidH559, “GodH430 has 1011vindicatedH1777 me, and has indeedH1571 heardH8085 my voiceH6963 and has givenH5414 me a sonH1121.” ThereforeH5921H3651 she namedH7121 him 12DanH1835. 7Rachel’sH7354 maidH8198 BilhahH1090 conceivedH2029 againH5750 and boreH3205 JacobH3290 a secondH8145 sonH1121. 8So RachelH7354 saidH559, “With 13mightyH430 wrestlingsH5319 I have 14wrestledH6617 with my sisterH269, and I have indeedH1571 prevailedH3201.” And she namedH7121 him NaphtaliH5321.
