Genesis 30:1-6 World English Bible (WEB)

1. When Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister. She said to Jacob, “Give me children, or else I will die.”

2. Jacob’s anger burned against Rachel, and he said, “Am I in God’s place, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?”

3. She said, “Behold, my maid Bilhah. Go in to her, that she may bear on my knees, and I also may obtain children by her.”

4. She gave him Bilhah her servant as wife, and Jacob went in to her.

5. Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.

6. Rachel said, “God has judged me, and has also heard my voice, and has given me a son.” Therefore called she his name Dan.
