³³ She conceived again and bore a son, and said, “Because the Lord has heard^[a] that I am hated, he has given me this son also”; and she called his name Simeon. ³⁴ Again she conceived and bore a son, and said, “Now this time my husband will be joined^[b] to me, because I have borne him three sons”; therefore his name was called Levi. ³⁵ And she conceived again and bore a son, and said, “This time I will praise^[c] the Lord”; therefore she called his name Judah; then she ceased bearing.
