² And he put the servants with their children in front, then Leah with her children, and Rachel and Joseph last of all.

¹⁷ “They shall be mine, says the Lord of hosts, ^(A)in the day when I make up ^(B)my treasured possession, and I will spare them as a man spares his son who serves him.

³ Now Israel loved Joseph more than any other of his sons, because he was ^(A)the son of his old age. And he made him ^(B)a robe of many colors.^[a]

²² Then God ^(A)remembered Rachel, and God listened to her and ^(B)opened her womb. ²³ She conceived and bore a son and said, “God has taken away ^(C)my reproach.” ²⁴ And she called his name Joseph,^[a] saying, ^(D)“May the Lord add to me another son!”

³⁰ So Jacob went in to Rachel also, and he loved Rachel more than Leah, and served Laban ^(A)for another seven years.
