*
And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children ,
Rachel envied her sister ;
and said unto Jacob ,
Give me children ,
or else I die .
*
And Jacob '
s anger was kindled against Rachel :
and he said ,
Am I in God '
s stead ,
who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb ?
*
And she said ,
Behold my maid Bilhah ,
go in unto her ;
and she shall bear upon my knees ,
that I may also have children by her .
*
And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife :
and Jacob went in unto her .
*
And Bilhah conceived ,
and bare Jacob a son .
*
And Rachel said ,
God hath judged me ,
and hath also heard my voice ,
and hath given me a son :
therefore called she his name Dan .
*
And Bilhah Rachel '
s maid conceived again ,
and bare Jacob a second son .
*
And Rachel said ,
With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister ,
and I have prevailed :
and she called his name Naphtali .
