1599 Geneva Bible
16 And Jacob came from the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, Come in to me, for I have [a]bought and paid for thee with my son’s mandrakes: and he slept with her that night.
17 And God heard Leah and she conceived, and bare unto Jacob the fifth son.
18 Then said Leah, God hath given me my reward, because I gave my [b]maid to my husband, and she called his name Issachar.
