The Scriptures 1998

Genesis 30:16-21 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

16. And when Ya‛aqoḇ came out of the field in the evening, Lĕ’ah went out to meet him and said, “Do come in to me, for indeed, I have hired you with my son’s love-apples.” And he lay with her that night.

17. And Elohim listened to Lĕ’ah, and she conceived and bore Ya‛aqoḇ a fifth son.

18. And Lĕ’ah said, “Elohim has given me my hire, because I have given my female servant to my husband.” So she called his name Yissasḵar.

19. And Lĕ’ah conceived again and bore Ya‛aqoḇ a sixth son.

20. And Lĕ’ah said, “Elohim has presented me with a good present. Now my husband is going to dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons.” So she called his name Zeḇulun.

21. And afterward she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
