THE MELCHIZEDEK BIBLE KING JAMES VERSION

GENESIS 30 GENESIS 30

1 When Rachel saw that she was barren and had not given Jacob any children, she envied her sister, and said to Jacob, "Give me children or else I will die." This part of KING JAMES VERSION will be added later on.

2 Then Jacob became angry with Rachel; and he retorted, "Am I in God's place? who has withheld children from you?" .....

3 Then she said, "Behold my maid Bilhah, go with her, and she can become a surrogate mother for me, so that I may also have children by her." .....

4 So she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to also be a wife and he went to her. .....

5 Then Bilhah conceived, giving birth to a son for Jacob and Rachel. .....

6 Rachel said, "God has judged me, excluding any manipulation of mine, but I am given a son"; therefore she called his name Dan. .....

7 Bilhah, Rachel's maid, yet conceived again, giving birth to a second son for Jacob and Rachel. .....

8 Then Rachel declared, "With great strife have I struggled with my sister, and I have prevailed, and she called his name Naphtali. .....

9 When Leah saw that she had stopped bearing children, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her to Jacob to have more children. .....

10 So Zilpah, Leah's maid, gave birth to a son for Jacob. .....

11 And Leah discerned that the harmonious spiritual Being would be perceived by mankind, so she called his mame Gad. .....

12 And Zilpah, Leah's maid, gave birth to a second son for Jacob. .....

13 Leah said, "Happy am I, for the women will rebuke the carnal mind and credit my progeny for their reliance on God"; and she called his name Asher. .....

14 Reuben went at the time of the wheat harvest, and beheld, in the field of the erroneous knowledge of superstitions accompanied by lustful beliefs of the flesh, mandrakes, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel asked Leah if she would please share with her the fertility superstitions represented by her son's mandrakes. .....

15 And she said to her, "Is it not enough that you have taken my husband? And now you want to have my son's mandrakes with their fertility superstitions too?" So Rachel offered that Jacob would lie with her that same night for her son's mandrakes. .....

16 So when Jacob came in from the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him, saying, "You are to stay with me tonight, for it has been agreed that you will do that for my son's mandrakes." Now he stayed with her that night. .....

17 And Leah, believing that God was blessing her, conceived and gave birth to a fifth son for Jacob. .....

18 Leah pondered, "Has God rewarded me in spite of my seld-will because I gave my maid to my husband?" And she called her erroneous belief of conception Issachar. .....

19 Yet again Leah conceived, giving birth to a sixth son for Jacob. .....

20 Leah said, "Nevertheless, God has unfolded generously of his abiding grace, now my husband should dwell with me because I have presented him with six sons; and she called his name Zebulum. .....

21 Afterwards she gave birth to a daughter for Jacob, and called her name Dinah. .....

22 But the true idea of Rachel was forever in the divine Mind and her discernment of this correct idea healed any unfruitfulness, so her perception of God's ideas was unstopped. .....

23 She then conceived, giving birth to a son, and declared, "God has revealed that I must bless my enemies"; .....

24 And she called his name Joseph, saying, "The Lord will add to me another son." .....

25 It came to pass, after Rachel had given birth to Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, "Let me go away, so that I may return to my own place, and to my country. .....

26 "Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served you, and let me go, for you know the agreement we have and that I have fulfilled its terms." .....

27 Then Laban replied to him, "If I have found favour in your sight, kindly remain here, for I believe the Lord has blessed me for your sake." .....

28 He added, "What are your wages so that I may pay them?" .....

29 He replied, "You know how well I have served you, and how well your livestock has done under my care. .....

30 "For you had little before I came, and it is now increased greatly, and you have been blessed since my coming, and now when can I provide for myself and my own house?" .....

31 Laban repeated, "What shall I pay you?" And Jacob replied, "You need not pay me at all if you will do this one thing for me, I will continue to tend your flock and watch over it; .....

32 "I will pass through all the flock today, removing from there all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all dark ones from among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled from among the goats; and of such will be my wages. .....

33 "So will my integrity be proven in the future, whenever you verify my account with you, every one that is not speckled or spotted of the goats or any sheep that is not dark, that will be counted stolen with me." .....

34 Laban replied, "Behold, it is as you have said." .....

35 The same day he removed all the male goats that were striped and spotted, and all the female goats that were speckled ans spotted, and everyone that had some white on it, and all the dark sheep, and he gave them to the care of his sons. .....

36 And he put between them a three days journey. And Jacob took care of the rest of Laban's flocks. .....

37 So Jacob took branches of green poplar, and of the hazel and chestnut tree, and peeled back the bark so that the white interior wood appeared in the branches. .....

38 Then he set the striped rods in the gutters of the watering troughs before the flocks when they came to drink, that their perception should be influenced when coming to the water. .....

39 The flocks conceived under the influence of the rods, and brought forth cattle striped, speckled, and spotted. .....

40 And Jacob did separate the young animals, and set the faces of Laban's flocks toward the all striped and dark ones, but he put his own flocks by themselves, putting them not with Laban's flocks. .....

41 So whenever the stronger cattle did conceive, Jacob laid the rods before the discerning eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might be influenced in their conception among the rods. .....

42 But for the weaker cattle, he put them not in; so the weaker cattle were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's. .....

43 This is the way that Jacob's cattle greatly increased, and he became prosperous, having maidservants, menservants, and camels and donkeys. .....
