Genesis 30:1-5 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

1. And when Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister, and said to Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.

2. And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel, and he said, Am I in God's stead, who has withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?

3. And she said, Behold, there is my maid, Bilhah: go in to her, in order that she may bear on my knees, and I may also be built up by her.

4. And she gave him Bilhah her maidservant as wife, and Jacob went in to her.

5. And Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
