18Then LeahH3812 saidH559, “GodH430 has givenH5414 me my 1wagesH7939 becauseH834 I gaveH5414 my maidH8198 to my husbandH376.” So she namedH7121 him IssacharH3485. 19LeahH3812 conceivedH2029 againH5750 and boreH3205 a sixthH8345 sonH1121 to JacobH3290. 20Then LeahH3812 saidH559, “GodH430 has endowedH2064 me with a goodH2896 giftH2065; nowH6471 my husbandH376 2will dwellH2082 with me, becauseH3588 I have borneH3205 him sixH8337 sonsH1121.” So she namedH7121 him ZebulunH2074. 21AfterwardH310 she boreH3205 a daughterH1323 and namedH7121H8034 her DinahH1783.
