Soon Leah’s servant Zilpah gave Jacob a son.

Then Leah’s servant Zilpah gave Jacob another son.

(Laban gave his female servant Zilpah to his daughter Leah to be her servant.)

When Leah saw that she had stopped having children, she gave her servant Zilpah to Jacob as a wife.

The sons of Zilpah, Leah’s servant, were Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan Aram.

These were the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter. She bore these to Jacob, sixteen in all.

This is the account of Jacob. Joseph, his seventeen-year-old son, was taking care of the flocks with his brothers. Now he was a youngster working with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father’s wives. Joseph brought back a bad report about them to their father.
