19. Leah became pregnant again and bore Jacob a sixth son.
20. She said, “God has given me a fine gift. Now my husband will accept me, because I have borne him six sons”; so she named him Zebulun.
21. Later she bore a daughter, whom she named Dinah.
22. Then God remembered Rachel; he answered her prayer and made it possible for her to have children.
23. She became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She said, “God has taken away my disgrace by giving me a son.
24. May the Lord give me another son”; so she named him Joseph.
25. After the birth of Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Let me go, so that I can return home.
26. Give me my wives and children that I have earned by working for you, and I will leave. You know how well I have served you.”
27. Laban said to him, “Let me say this: I have learnt by divination that the Lord has blessed me because of you.
28. Name your wages, and I will pay them.”
29. Jacob answered, “You know how I have worked for you and how your flocks have prospered under my care.
30. The little you had before I came has grown enormously, and the Lord has blessed you wherever I went. Now it is time for me to look out for my own interests.”
31. “What shall I pay you?” Laban asked.Jacob answered, “I don't want any wages. I will continue to take care of your flocks if you agree to this suggestion:
32. Let me go through all your flocks today and take every black lamb and every spotted or speckled young goat. That is all the wages I want.
