Now Laban had two daughters. The name of the older [was] Leah, and the name of the younger [was] Rachel.

Now the eyes of Leah [were] dull, but Rachel was beautiful in form and appearance.

And it happened [that] in the evening he took Leah his daughter and brought her to him, and he went in to her.

And Laban gave Zilpah his female servant to her, to Leah his daughter [as] a female servant.

And it happened [that] in the morning, behold, it [was] Leah! And he said to Laban, "What [is] this you have done to me? Did I not serve with you for Rachel? Now why did you deceive me?"

Then he also went in to Rachel, and he loved Rachel more than Leah. And he served with him yet another seven years.

When Yahweh saw that Leah [was] unloved he opened her womb, but Rachel [was] barren.

Then Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and she called his name Reuben, for she said, "Because Yahweh has noticed my misery, that I [am] unloved. Now my husband will love me."

When Leah saw that she had ceased bearing children, she took Zilpah her female servant and gave her to Jacob as a wife.

And Zilpah, the female slave of Leah, bore a son to Jacob.

Then Leah said, "Good fortune!" And she called his name Gad.

And Zilpah, Leah's female servant, bore a second son to Jacob.

Then Leah said, "How happy [am] I! For women have called me happy." So she called his name Asher.

And in the days of the wheat harvest, Reuben went and found mandrakes in the field and he brought them to Leah his mother. And Rachel said to Leah, "Please give me some of your son's mandrakes."

When Jacob came in from the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him. And she said, "Come in to me, for {I have hired} you with my son's mandrakes." And he slept with her that night.

And God listened to Leah and she conceived and gave birth to a fifth son for Jacob.

Then Leah said, "God has given [me] my wage since I gave my servant girl to my husband." And she called his name Issachar.

And Leah conceived again and gave birth to a sixth son for Jacob.

And Leah said, "God has endowed me with a good gift. This time my husband will acknowledge me, because I bore him six sons." And she called his name Zebulun.

So Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field, to his flocks,

Then Rachel and Leah answered and said to him, "[Is there] yet a portion for us, and an inheritance in the house of our father?

Then Laban went into Jacob's tent and Leah's tent and the tent of the two female servants and did not find [his gods]. And he came out of Leah's tent and went into Rachel's tent.

And Jacob lifted up his eyes and looked. And behold, Esau [was] coming and four hundred men [were] with him. And he divided the children among Leah and among Rachel, and among the two of his female servants.

And he put the female slaves and their children first, then Leah and her children next, then Rachel with Joseph last.

Then Leah and her children drew near and bowed down, and afterward Joseph and Rachel drew near and they bowed down.

Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.

The sons of Leah: The firstborn of Jacob [was] Reuben. Then Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.

The sons of Zilpah, the female servant of Leah: Gad and Asher. These [were] the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan-Aram.

These [are] the sons of Leah that she bore to Jacob in Paddan-Aram, and Dinah his daughter. His sons and daughters [were] thirty-three persons in all.

There [are] the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter, and she bore these to Jacob--sixteen persons.

There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife. There they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife. And there I buried Leah--

And all of the people who [were] at the gate and the elders said, "[We are] witnesses. May Yahweh make the woman coming into your house as Rachel and as Leah, who {together} built the house of Israel. May you have strength in Ephrathah and bestow a name in Bethlehem.
