Genesis 29:31-35
31 Now the Lord saw that Leah was ▼▼Lit hated
unloved, and He opened her womb, but Rachel was unable to have children. 32Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and named him ▼▼I.e., see, a son
Reuben, for she said, “Because the Lord has ▼▼Lit looked at
dseen my affliction; surely now my husband will love me.” 33Then she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, “ eBecause the Lord has ▼▼Heb shama, related to Simeon
heard that I am ▼▼Lit hated
unloved, He has therefore given me this son also.” So she named him Simeon. 34And she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, “Now this time my husband will become ▼▼Heb lavah, related to Levi
attached to me, because I have borne him three sons.” Therefore he was named iLevi. 35And she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, “This time I will ▼▼Heb Jadah, related to Judah
praise the Lord.” Therefore she named him ▼▼Heb Jehudah
lJudah. Then she stopped having children.
