Genesis 30:1-6

New International Version

30 When Rachel saw that she was not bearing Jacob any children,^(A) she became jealous of her sister.^(B) So she said to Jacob, “Give me children, or I’ll die!”

² Jacob became angry with her and said, “Am I in the place of God,^(C) who has kept you from having children?”^(D)

³ Then she said, “Here is Bilhah,^(E) my servant.^(F) Sleep with her so that she can bear children for me and I too can build a family through her.”^(G)

⁴ So she gave him her servant Bilhah as a wife.^(H) Jacob slept with her,^{(I) 5} and she became pregnant and bore him a son. ⁶ Then Rachel said, “God has vindicated me;^(J) he has listened to my plea and given me a son.”^(K) Because of this she named him Dan.^[a](L)
