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, because I have borne him six sons." So she named him Zebulun.
21. Some time later she gave birth to a daughter and named her Dinah.
22. Then God remembered Rachel; he listened to her and opened her womb.
23. She became pregnant and gave birth to a son and said, "God has taken away my disgrace."
24. She named him Joseph, and said, "May the LORD add to me another son."
