Genesis 30:16-18
New International Version
16 So when Jacob came in from the fields that evening, Leah went out to meet him. “You must sleep with me,” she said. “I have hired you with my son’s mandrakes.”(A) So he slept with her that night.
17 God listened to Leah,(B) and she became pregnant and bore Jacob a fifth son. 18 Then Leah said, “God has rewarded me for giving my servant to my husband.”(C) So she named him Issachar.[a](D)
