Genesis 30:19-31 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

19. Leah conceived again, and bore a sixth son to Jacob.

20. Leah said, “God has endowed me with a good dowry. Now my husband will live with me, because I have borne him six sons.” She named him Zebulun.

21. Afterwards, she bore a daughter, and named her Dinah.

22. God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and opened her womb.

23. She conceived, bore a son, and said, “God has taken away my reproach.”

24. She named him Joseph, saying, “May the Lord add another son to me.”

25. When Rachel had borne Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Send me away, that I may go to my own place, and to my country.

26. Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served you, and let me go; for you know my service with which I have served you.”

27. Laban said to him, “If now I have found favour in your eyes, stay here, for I have divined that the Lord has blessed me for your sake.”

28. He said, “Appoint me your wages, and I will give it.”

29. Jacob said to him, “You know how I have served you, and how your livestock have fared with me.

30. For it was little which you had before I came, and it has increased to a multitude. The Lord has blessed you wherever I turned. Now when will I provide for my own house also?”

31. Laban said, “What shall I give you?”Jacob said, “You shall not give me anything. If you will do this thing for me, I will again feed your flock and keep it.
