Genesis 29:31-33

International Standard Version

Leah’s Children

³¹ Later, the Lord noticed that Leah was being neglected,^[a] so he made her fertile, while Rachel remained childless. ³² Leah conceived, bore a son, and named him Reuben,^[b] because she was saying, “The Lord had looked on my torture, so now my husband will love me.”

³³ Later, she conceived again, bore a son, and declared, “Because the Lord heard that I’m neglected, he gave me this one, too.” So she named him Simeon.^[c]
