01:030:010 And Zilpah Leah’s maid bare Jacob a son.

01:030:011 And Leah said, A troop cometh:  and she called his name Gad.

01:030:012 And Zilpah Leah’s maid bare Jacob a second son.

01:030:013 And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me
           blessed:  and she called his name Asher.

01:030:014 And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found
           mandrakes in the field, and brought them unto his mother Leah. 
           Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray thee, of thy son’s
           mandrakes.

01:030:015 And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that thou hast
           taken my husband? and wouldest thou take away my son’s
           mandrakes also?  And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with
           thee to night for thy son’s mandrakes.

01:030:016 And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went
           out to meet him, and said, Thou must come in unto me; for
           surely I have hired thee with my son’s mandrakes.  And he lay
           with her that night.

01:030:017 And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bare Jacob
           the fifth son.

01:030:018 And Leah said, God hath given me my hire, because I have given
           my maiden to my husband:  and she called his name Issachar.

01:030:019 And Leah conceived again, and bare Jacob the sixth son.

01:030:020 And Leah said, God hath endued me with a good dowry; now will
           my husband dwell with me, because I have born him six sons: 
           and she called his name Zebulun.

01:030:021 And afterwards she bare a daughter, and called her name Dinah.

01:030:022 And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and
           opened her womb.

01:030:023 And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath taken
           away my reproach: 

01:030:024 And she called his name Joseph; and said, The lord shall add
           to me another son.

01:030:025 And it came to pass, when Rachel had born Joseph, that Jacob
           said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own
           place, and to my country.

01:030:026 Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served thee,
           and let me go:  for thou knowest my service which I have done
           thee.

01:030:027 And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found favour
           in thine eyes, tarry:  for I have learned by experience that
           the lord hath blessed me for thy sake.

01:030:028 And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give it.

01:030:029 And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and
           how thy cattle was with me.
