17. God gave heed to Leah, and she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son.
18. Then Leah said, "God has given me my wages because I gave my maid to my husband." So she named him Issachar.
19. Leah conceived again and bore a sixth son to Jacob.
20. Then Leah said, "God has endowed me with a good gift; now my husband will dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons." So she named him Zebulun.
21. Afterward she bore a daughter and named her Dinah.
22. Then God remembered Rachel, and God gave heed to her and opened her womb.
23. So she conceived and bore a son and said, "God has taken away my reproach."
24. She named him Joseph, saying, "May the Lord give me another son."
25. Now it came about when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, "Send me away, that I may go to my own place and to my own country.
26. Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served you, and let me depart; for you yourself know my service which I have rendered you."
27. But Laban said to him, "If now it pleases you, stay with me; I have divined that the Lord has blessed me on your account."
28. He continued, "Name me your wages, and I will give it."
29. But he said to him, "You yourself know how I have served you and how your cattle have fared with me.
