Genesis 30:17-30
17And GodH430 hearkened unto LeahH3812, and she conceivedH2029, and bare JacobH3290 a fifthH2549 sonH1121.
18And LeahH3812 saidH559, GodH430 hath givenH5414 meH5414 my hireH7939, becauseH834 I gaveH5414 my handmaid to my husbandH376: and sheH834 calledH7121 his nameH8034 IssacharH3485.
19And LeahH3812 conceivedH2029 againH5750, and bare a sixthH8345 sonH1121 to JacobH3290.
20And LeahH3812 saidH559, GodH430 hath endowedH2064 meH7121 with a goodH2896 dowry; nowH6471 will my husbandH376 dwellH2082 with meH7121, becauseH3588 I have borneH3205 him sixH8337 sonsH1121: and sheH3588 calledH7121 his nameH8034 ZebulunH2074.
21And afterwardsH310 sheH7121 bare a daughterH1323, and calledH7121 herH7121 nameH8034 DinahH1783.
22And GodH430 rememberedH2142 RachelH7354, and GodH430 hearkened to herH413, and openedH6605 herH413 wombH7358.
23And she conceivedH2029, and bare a sonH1121: and saidH559, GodH430 hath takenH622 awayH622 my reproachH2781:
24and sheH7121 calledH7121 his nameH8034 JosephH3130, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 addH3254 to meH7121 anotherH312 sonH1121.
25And it cameH1961 to passH1961, when RachelH7354 had borneH3205 JosephH3130, that JacobH3290 saidH559 unto LabanH3837, SendH7971 meH413 awayH7971, that I may goH7971 unto mine ownH1961 placeH4725, and to my countryH776.
26GiveH5414 meH5414 my wivesH802 and my childrenH3206 for whomH834 I have servedH5647 thee, and letH5414 meH5414 go: for thou knowest my serviceH5656 wherewith I have servedH5647 thee.
27And LabanH3837 saidH559 unto him, IfH518 nowH4994 I have foundH4672 favour in thine eyesH5869, tarry: for I have divinedH5172 that the LORDH3068 hath blessedH1288 meH413 for thy sake.
28And he saidH559, AppointH5414 meH5414 thy wagesH7939, and I will giveH5414 it.
29And he saidH559 unto him, Thou knowest howH834 I have servedH5647 thee, and howH834 thy cattleH4735 hath faredH1961 with meH413.
30For it was littleH4592 whichH834 thou hadst beforeH6440 I cameH1961, and it hath increasedH6555 unto a multitudeH7230; and the LORDH3068 hath blessedH1288 thee whithersoever I turnedH1961: and nowH6258 when shall I provideH6213 for mine ownH1961 houseH1004 also?
