New King James Version
Genesis 30:17-30
17And God listened to Leah, and she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son.
18Leah said, “God has given me my wages, because I have given my maid to my husband.” So she called his name Issachar.
19Then Leah conceived again and bore Jacob a sixth son.
20And Leah said, “God has endowed me with a good endowment; now my husband will dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons.” So she called his name Zebulun.
21Afterward she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
22Then God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her and opened her womb.
23And she conceived and bore a son, and said, “God has taken away my reproach.”
24So she called his name Joseph, and said, “The Lord shall add to me another son.”
25And it came to pass, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, “Send me away, that I may go to my own place and to my country.
26Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served you, and let me go; for you know my service which I have done for you.”
27And Laban said to him, “Please stay, if I have found favor in your eyes, for I have learned by experience that the Lord has blessed me for your sake.”
28Then he said, “Name me your wages, and I will give it.”
29So Jacob said to him, “You know how I have served you and how your livestock has been with me.
30For what you had before I came was little, and it has increased to a great amount; the Lord has blessed you since my coming. And now, when shall I also provide for my own house?”
