When the LORD saw that Leah was unloved, He opened her womb; but Rachel was barren. Context 31Now the LORD saw that Leah was unloved, and He opened her womb, but Rachel was barren. 32Leah conceived and bore a son and named him Reuben, for she said, “Because the LORD has seen my affliction; surely now my husband will love me.” 33Then 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.” So she named him Simeon. 34She 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 he was named Levi. 35And she conceived again and bore a son and said, “This time I will praise the LORD.” Therefore she named him Judah. Then she stopped bearing. Links Genesis 29:31 NIVGenesis 29:31 NLT Genesis 29:31 ESV Genesis 29:31 NASB Genesis 29:31 KJV Genesis 29:31 Commentaries Bible Hub |
