14 And Reuben will go in the day of the harvest of wheat, and will find apples of mandrakes in the field, and he will bring them to Leah his mother: and Rachel will say to Leah, Give now to me of thy son's apples of mandrakes. 15 And she will say to her, Is it little, thy taking my husband'! and thou didst take also my son's apples of mandrakes? And Rachel will say, For this he shall lie with thee this night, for thy son's apples of mandrakes. 16 And Jacob will come from the field in the evening, and Leah will go forth to his meeting, and she will say, Thou shalt come in to me, for hiring I hired thee for my son's apples of mandrakes: and he will lie with her in that night. 17 And God will listen to Leah, and she will conceive and bear to Jacob the fifth son. 18 And Leah will say, God gave me My hire because I gave my maid to my husband: and she will call his name Issachar. 19 And Leah will conceive yet again, and will bear the sixth son to Jacob. 20 And Leah will say, God gave me a good gift; this time will my husband dwell with me, for I have borne to him six sons. And she will call his name Zebulon. 21 And afterwards she bare a daughter, and she will call her name Dinah. 22 And God will remember Rachel, and God will listen to her, and he will open her womb. 23 And she will conceive and will bare a son, and she will say, God took away my reproach. 24 And she will call his name Joseph, saying, God will add to me another son.
