And Leah conceived again For bearing children Jacob took more to her, and more frequently attended her apartment and bed: and bare Jacob a sixth son; the sixth by her, but the tenth by her and his two maids.
17
God listened to Leah; she became pregnant and gave Jacob a fifth son.
18
She said, "God rewarded me for giving my maid to my husband." She named him Issachar (Bartered).
19
Leah became pregnant yet again and gave Jacob a sixth son,
20
saying, "God has given me a great gift. This time my husband will honor me with gifts - I've given him six sons!" She named him Zebulun (Honor).
21
Last of all she had a daughter and named her Dinah.
