Genesis 30:13-15
GOD’S WORD Translation
13 Leah said, “I’ve been blessed! Women will call me blessed.” So she named him Asher [Blessing].
14 During the wheat harvest Reuben went out into the fields and found some mandrakes.[a] He brought them to his mother Leah. Rachel said to Leah, “Please give me some of your son’s mandrakes.”
15 Leah replied, “Isn’t it enough that you took my husband? Are you also going to take my son’s mandrakes?”
Rachel said, “Very well, Jacob can go to bed with you tonight in return for your son’s mandrakes.”
