Be consistent with how you spell the name Zilpah in the book of Genesis. See 29:24; 30:9–10, 12; 35:26; 37:2; 46:18. Alternate translation: [Those were the descendants of Jacob and Zilpah]

Consider whether it is better in your language to change the order of clauses in this verse and say, “Those were sixteen descendants that Jacob had with his concubine Zilpah, whom Laban had given to his daughter Leah as a maidservant/servant.” Alternate translation: [Zilpah and Jacob had those sixteen descendants] or [The total number of those descendants that Zilpah and Jacob had together was sixteen]
