30 Jacob slept with Rachel (little lamb) as well, and indeed, he loved Rachel more than Leah (weary). So he worked for Laban another seven years.

31 When the LORD {YHWH} saw that Leah (weary) was unloved, He opened her womb; but Rachel (little lamb) was barren.

32 And Leah (weary) conceived and gave birth to a son, and she named him Reuben (behold a son), for she said, “The LORD {YHWH} has seen my affliction. Surely my husband will love me now.”

33 Again she conceived and gave birth to a son, and she said, “Because the LORD {YHWH} has heard that I am unloved, He has given me this son as well.” So she named him Simeon (one who hears).
