Genesis 30:18-24

18Then Leah said, “God has rewarded me for giving my servant to my husband.” So she named him Issachar.

19Leah conceived again and bore Jacob a sixth son.

20Then Leah said, “God has presented me with a precious gift. This time my husband will treat me with honor, because I have borne him six sons.” So she named him Zebulun.

21Some time later she gave birth to a daughter and named her Dinah.

22Then God remembered Rachel; he listened to her and enabled her to conceive.

23She became pregnant and gave birth to a son and said, “God has taken away my disgrace.”

24She named him Joseph, and said, “May the Lord add to me another son.”
