New International Reader's Version

Genesis 30:1-4 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. Rachel saw that she couldn't have any children by Jacob. So she became jealous of her sister. She said to Jacob, "Give me children, or I'll die!"

2. Jacob became angry with her. He said, "Do you think I'm God? He's the one who has kept you from having children."

3. Then she said, "Here's my servant Bilhah. Make love to her so that she can have children for me. Then I too can have a family through her."

4. So she gave him her servant Bilhah as a wife. Jacob made love to her.
