1. Mosebok 30,20

18 Lea sa: "Gud har belønnet meg for at jeg ga min tjenestepike til min mann." Så kalte hun ham Isaskar.

19 Lea ble gravid igjen og fødte en sjette sønn for Jakob.

Lea sa: "Gud har gitt meg en god gave; nå vil min mann ære meg, fordi jeg har født ham seks sønner." Så kalte hun ham Sebulon.

21 Etterpå fikk hun en datter og kalte henne Dina.

22 Gud tok hensyn til Rakel, og Gud lyttet til henne og lot henne bli gravid.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
