Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me
children, or else I die.

said, Am I in God's stead, who hath withheld from thee the
fruit of the womb?

and she shall bear upon my knees, that I may also have
children by her.

went in unto her.

with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his

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.
Genesis
30:15 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.
Genesis
30:16 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.

30:22 And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her,
and opened her womb.
Genesis
30:23 And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath
taken away my reproach:
Genesis
30:24 And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD
shall add to me another son.
Genesis
30:25 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.
Genesis
30:26 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.
Genesis
30:27 And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found
favor in thine eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience
that the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.
Genesis
30:28 And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give it.
Genesis
30:29 And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served
thee, and how thy cattle was with me.
Genesis
30:30 For it was little which thou hadst before I came, and
it is now increased unto a multitude; and the LORD hath
blessed thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide
for mine own house also?
Genesis
30:31 And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said,
Thou shalt not give me any thing: if thou wilt do this thing
for me, I will again feed and keep thy flock.
Genesis
30:32 I will pass through all thy flock to day, removing
from thence all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all the
brown cattle among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled
among the goats: and of such shall be my hire.
Genesis
30:33 So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to
come, when it shall come for my hire before thy face: every
one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and
brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.
Genesis
30:34 And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according
to thy word.
Genesis
30:35 And he removed that day the he goats that were
ring-streaked and spotted, and all the she goats that were
speckled and spotted, and every one that had some white in
it, and all the brown among the sheep, and gave them into
the hand of his sons.
Genesis
30:36 And he set three days' journey betwixt himself and
Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.
Genesis
30:37 And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the
hazel and chestnut tree; and pilled white streaks in them,
and made the white appear which was in the rods.
Genesis
30:38 And he set the rods which he had pilled before the
flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the
flocks came to drink, that they should conceive when they
came to drink.
Genesis
30:39 And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought
forth cattle ring-streaked, speckled, and spotted.
Genesis
30:40 And Jacob did separate the lambs, and set the faces of
the flocks toward the ring-streaked, and all the brown in
the flock of Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves,
and put them not unto Laban's cattle.
Genesis
30:41 And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle
did conce ive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of
the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among
the rods.
Genesis
30:42 But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in:
so the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.
Genesis
30:43 And the man increased exceedingly, and had much
cattle, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and
asses.
