(Kai eipe Ɽaⱪaʸl, ekrine moi ho Theos, kai epaʸkouse taʸs fōnaʸs mou, kai edōke moi huion; dia touto ekalese to onoma autou, Dan. )
30:1-8 Rachel’s naming of sons through Bilhah does not reflect faith as Leah’s namings had. Rachel felt wronged over the marriage and her barrenness. The names of Bilhah’s sons reflect Rachel’s bitter struggle with her sister and her feeling of some victory.

Consider whether it is more natural here in your language to begin a new sentence here or to continue the sentence from verse 5. Alternate translation: “Then Rachel said”
דָּנַ֣נִּי אֱלֹהִ֔ים
vindicated,me ʼₑlhīmv
Some translations have “judged me” here. However, make sure your translation of this phrase has a positive meaning (making a decision in Rachel’s favor) and not a negative meaning (condemning her).
וְגַם֙ שָׁמַ֣ע בְּקֹלִ֔י וַיִּתֶּן לִ֖י בֵּ֑ן
and=also heard in/on/at/with,voice,my and,given to=me son
Alternate translation: “Yes indeed, he has heard my request and given me a son!”
עַל כֵּ֛ן
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in yes/correct/thus/so
Alternate translation: “Because of that”
קָרְאָ֥ה שְׁמ֖וֹ
called his/its=name
Make sure it is clear here in your translation that Bilhah’s son is the one being named, not God (who was the subject of the previous sentence). See how you translated called his name in Gen 29:32. Alternate translation: “she called him” or “she gave him the name” or “she named her baby”

דָּֽן
Dān
If you include the meaning of Dan’s name in your translation (or in a footnote), make sure it matches the way you translated “he has vindicated” earlier in this verse.
