Then Leah said, God has made payment to me for giving my servant-girl to my husband: so she gave her son the name Issachar.

Now Jacob had twelve sons: the sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's first son, and Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Zebulun;

And the sons of Issachar: Tola and Puah and Job and Shimron;

Issachar is a strong ass stretched out among the flocks:

Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin;

From Issachar, Nethanel, the son of Zuar;

The generations of the sons of Issachar were numbered by their families and their fathers' houses, every male of twenty years old and over who was able to go to war;

Fifty-four thousand, four hundred of the tribe of Issachar were numbered.

And nearest to him will be the tribe of Issachar, with Nethanel, the son of Zuar, as their chief.

On the second day Nethanel, the son of Zuar, chief of Issachar, made his offering:

And at the head of the army of the children of Issachar was Nethanel, the son of Zuar.

Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal, the son of Joseph.

The sons of Issachar by their families: of Tola, the family of the Tolaites: of Puvah, the family of the Punites:

These are the families of Issachar, as they were numbered, sixty-four thousand, three hundred.

And of the tribe of the children of Issachar, a chief, Paltiel, the son of Azzan.

These are to take their places on Mount Gerizim for blessing the people when you have gone over Jordan: Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Joseph and Benjamin;

And of Zebulun he said, Be glad, Zebulun, in your going out; and, Issachar, in your tents.

To the south it is Ephraim's, and to the north it is Manasseh's, and the sea is his limit; and they are touching Asher on the north, and Issachar on the east.

In Issachar and Asher, Manasseh had Beth-shean and its daughter-towns, and Ibleam and its daughter-towns, and the people of Dor and its daughter-towns, and the people of En-dor and its daughter-towns, and the people of Taanach and its daughter-towns, and the people of Megiddo and its daughter-towns, that is, the three hills.

For Issachar the fourth heritage came out, for the children of Issachar by their families;

This is the heritage of the tribe of the children of Issachar by their families, these towns with their unwalled places.

The children of Gershon by their families were given thirteen towns from the tribes of Issachar and Asher and Naphtali and the half-tribe of Manasseh which was in Bashan.

And from the tribe of Issachar, Kishion and Daberath with their grass-lands;

Your chiefs, Issachar, were with Deborah; and Naphtali was true to Barak; into the valley they went rushing out at his feet. In Reuben there were divisions, and great searchings of heart.

Now after Abimelech, Tola, the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, became the saviour of Israel; he was living in Shamir in the hill-country of Ephraim.

Jehoshaphat, the son of Paruah, in Issachar;

And Baasha, the son of Ahijah, of the family of Issachar, made a secret design against him, attacking him at Gibbethon, a town of the Philistines; for Nadab and the armies of Israel were making war on Gibbethon.

These are the sons of Israel: Reuben, Simeon, Levi and Judah, Issachar and Zebulun;

And to the sons of Gershom, by their families, out of the tribe of Issachar, and out of the tribe of Asher, and out of the tribe of Naphtali, and out of the tribe of Manasseh in Bashan, thirteen towns.

And out of the tribe of Issachar, Kedesh with its outskirts, and Daberath with its outskirts,

And of the sons of Issachar: Tola and Puah, Jashub and Shimron, four.

And there were recorded among all the families of Issachar, great men of war, eighty-seven thousand.

And of the children of Issachar, there were two hundred chiefs, men who had expert knowledge of the times and what it was best for Israel to do, and all their brothers were under their orders.

And those who were near, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, came with food on asses and camels and mules and oxen, with meal for food and cakes of figs and masses of grapes, and wine and oil and oxen and sheep in great numbers, for there was joy in Israel.

Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peullethai the eighth; for the blessing of God was on him.

Of Judah, Elihu, one of the brothers of David; of Issachar, Omri, the son of Michael;

For a great number of the people from Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not made themselves clean, but they took the Passover meal, though not in the right way. For Hezekiah had made prayer for them, saying, May the good Lord have mercy on everyone

And on the limit of Simeon, from the east side to the west side: Issachar, one part.

And on the limit of Issachar, from the east side to the west side: Zebulun, one part.

And at the south side, four thousand five hundred by measure, and three doors, one for Simeon, one for Issachar, one for Zebulun;
