GEN 29:31b–30:1a ©

Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah

Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah

When the LORD saw that Leah was unloved, He opened her womb; but Rachel [was] barren. 32And Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and she named him Reuben,[fn] for she said,“The LORD has seen my affliction. Surely my husband will love me now.”

33

Again she conceived and gave birth to a son, and she said,“Because the LORD has heard that I am unloved, He has given me this [son] as well.” So she named him Simeon.[fn]

34

Once again [Leah] conceived and gave birth to a son, and she said,“Now at last my husband will become attached to me, because I have borne him three sons.” So he was named Levi.[fn]

35

And once more she conceived and gave birth to a son and said,“This time I will praise the LORD.” So she named him Judah.[fn] Then Leah stopped having children. 30


29:32 Reuben means Look, a son and also sounds like the Hebrew for He has seen my misery.

29:33 Simeon probably means one who hears.

29:34 Levi sounds like the Hebrew for being attached to or feeling affection for.

29:35 Judah sounds like the Hebrew for praise.
