8. For whom Rachel said: God hath compared me with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called him Nephtali.
9. Lia, perceiving that she had left off bearing, gave Zelpha her handmaid to her husband.
10. And when she had conceived and brought forth a son,
11. She said: Happily. And therefore called his name Gad.
12. Zelpha also bore another.
13. And Lia said: This is for my happiness: for women will call me blessed. Therefore she called him Aser.
14. And Ruben, going out in the time of the wheat harvest into the field, found mandrakes: which he brought to his mother Lia. And Rachel said: Give me part of thy son's mandrakes.
15. She answered: Dost thou think it a small matter, that thou hast taken my husband from me, unless thou take also my son's mandrakes? Rachel said: He shall sleep with thee this night, for thy son's mandrakes.
16. And when Jacob returned at even from the field, Lia went out to meet him, and said: Thou shalt come in unto me, because I have hired thee for my son's mandrakes. And he slept with her that night.

18. And said: God hath given me a reward, because I gave my handmaid to my husband. And she called his name Issachar.
19. And Lia conceived again, and bore the sixth son,
20. And said: God hath endowed me with a good dowry: this turn also my husband will be with me, because I have borne him six sons: and therefore she called his name Zabulon.
21. After whom she bore a daughter, named Diana.
22. The Lord also remembering Rachel, heard her, and opened her womb.
23. And she conceived, and bore a son, saying: God hath taken my reproach.
24. And she called his name Joseph, saying: The Lord give me also another son.
25. And when Joseph was born, Jacob said to his father in law: Send me away that I may return into my country, and to my land.
