Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

Genesis 29
³² So Leah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Reuben; for she said, "The Lord has surely looked on my affliction. Now therefore, my husband will love me."
³³ Then she conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Because the Lord has heard that I am unloved, He has therefore given me this son also." And she called his name Simeon.
³⁴ She conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Now this time my husband will become attached to me, because I have borne him three sons." Therefore his name was called Levi.
³⁵ And she conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Now I will praise the Lord." Therefore she called his name Judah. Then she stopped bearing.
Genesis 30
¹ Now 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 aroused against Rachel, and he said, "Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?"
³ So she said, "Here is my maid Bilhah; go in to her, and she will bear a child on my knees, that I also may have children by her."
⁴ Then she gave him Bilhah her maid as wife, and Jacob went in to her.
⁵ And Bilhah conceived and bore Jacob a son.
⁶ Then Rachel said, "God has judged my case; and He has also heard my voice and given me a son." Therefore she called his name Dan.
⁷ And Rachel’s maid Bilhah conceived again and bore Jacob a second son.
