Easy-to-Read Version

30 Rachel saw that she was not giving Jacob any children. She became jealous of her sister Leah. So Rachel said to Jacob, “Give me children, or I will die!”

² Jacob became angry with Rachel and said, “I am not God. He is the one who has caused you to not have children.”

³ Then Rachel said, “You can have my maid Bilhah. Sleep with her, and she will have a child for me.^[a] Then I can be a mother through her.”
