Genesis 30:17-22
New International Version
17 God listened to Leah,(A) and she became pregnant and bore Jacob a fifth son. 18 Then Leah said, “God has rewarded me for giving my servant to my husband.”(B) So she named him Issachar.[a](C)
19 Leah conceived again and bore Jacob a sixth son. 20 Then Leah said, “God has presented me with a precious gift. This time my husband will treat me with honor,(D) because I have borne him six sons.” So she named him Zebulun.[b](E)
21 Some time later she gave birth to a daughter and named her Dinah.(F)
22 Then God remembered Rachel;(G) he listened to her(H) and enabled her to conceive.(I)
