Genesis 30:4-13 ▼

4 and she gives Bilhah her maidservant to him for a wife, and Jacob goes in to her;

5 and Bilhah conceives, and bears a son to Jacob,

6 and Rachel says, “God has decided for me, and has also listened to my voice, and gives a son to me”; therefore she has called his name Dan.

7 And Bilhah, Rachel’s maidservant, conceives again, and bears a second son to Jacob,

8 and Rachel says, “With wrestlings of God I have wrestled with my sister, indeed, I have prevailed”; and she calls his name Napthali.

9 And Leah sees that she has ceased from bearing, and she takes Zilpah her maidservant, and gives her to Jacob for a wife;

10 and Zilpah, Leah’s maidservant, bears a son to Jacob,

11 and Leah says, “A troop is coming”; and she calls his name Gad.

12 And Zilpah, Leah’s maidservant, bears a second son to Jacob,

13 and Leah says, “Because of my happiness, for daughters have pronounced me blessed”; and she calls his name Asher.
