Genesis 30:17-28 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

17. And God hearkeneth unto Leah, and she conceiveth, and beareth to Jacob a son, a fifth,

18. and Leah saith, `God hath given my hire, because I have given my maid-servant to my husband;' and she calleth his name Issachar.

19. And conceive again doth Leah, and she beareth a sixth son to Jacob,

20. and Leah saith, `God hath endowed me--a good dowry; this time doth my husband dwell with me, for I have borne to him six sons;' and she calleth his name Zebulun;

21. and afterwards hath she born a daughter, and calleth her name Dinah.

22. And God remembereth Rachel, and God hearkeneth unto her, and openeth her womb,

23. and she conceiveth and beareth a son, and saith, `God hath gathered up my reproach;'

24. and she calleth his name Joseph, saying, `Jehovah is adding to me another son.'

25. And it cometh to pass, when Rachel hath borne Joseph, that Jacob saith unto Laban, `Send me away, and I go unto my place, and to my land;

26. give up my wives and my children, for whom I have served thee, and I go; for thou- -thou hast known my service which I have served thee.'

27. And Laban saith unto him, `If, I pray thee, I have found grace in thine eyes--I have observed diligently that Jehovah doth bless me for thy sake.'

28. He saith also, `Define thy hire to me, and I give.'
