Pastor Eli and Pastor Steve review the Book of Esther Septuagint
version and explain that it is not a Jewish book. Eli tells us that when you understand ‘who is
who’ the Book of Esther is a beautiful book.
They explain who the following people are: Esther, Jew, Kenite, Judahites, Judeans, Edomites,
Idumea, Mordecai, Haman and the Amalekites. They also explain that the word ‘Yahweh’ has
been removed from the Book of Ester but still exists in the Septuagint version.
The feast day of Purim was started in the book of Esther and
was held on the 12th Hebrew month (Adar) on the 14th and
15th. Today, according the solar calendar, this feast day should be celebrated on March 2nd and 3rd
(approx. days depends on the spring equinox) by true Israel.
Pastor Steve continues reading his version of Genesis and provides explanations of the original Hebrew word
and name meanings.

Chapter 45
1.Then Yoseph could not refrain himself 662 before
all that stood by him; and he cried, "Cause every man to go out from
me!" And there stood no man with him, while Yoseph made himself known to
his brothers.
2. And he gave voice to weeping: and the Mitsriy and the house
of Par'oh heard.
3. And Yoseph said to his brothers, "I am Yoseph; is my
father still alive?" And his brothers could not answer him; because they
were dismayed 926 at his presence.
4. And Yoseph said to his brothers, "Come near to me,
please." And they came near. And he said, "I am Yoseph your brother,
whom you sold into Mitsrayemah.
5. Now therefore, do not be grieved, nor angry with yourselves,
that you sold me here: because Elohiym sent me before you to preserve life.
6. For these two years has the famine been in the land, and
there are still five years in which there shall be no earing or harvest.
7. Elohiym sent me before you to preserve to a posterity 7611 in
the land, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
8. So now it was not you that sent
me here, but Elohiym: and He has made me a father to Par'oh, and lord of all
his household, and a ruler throughout all the land of Mitsrayim.
9. Hurry 4116, and return to my father, and say to
him,‘Thus says your son Yoseph, 'Elohiym has made me lord of all Mitsrayim:
come down to me, do not delay:
10. and you shall dwell in the land of Goshen 1657,
and you shall be near to me, you, and your children, and your children's
children, and your flocks, and your herds, and all that you have:
11.. and there I will nourish you; because there
are five more years of famine; lest you and your household, and all
that you have, come to poverty 3423.
12. And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother
Binyamiyn, that it is my mouth that speaks to you.
13. And you shall tell my father of all my glory in Mitsrayim,
and of all that you have seen; and you shall hurry, and bring my father down
here."
14. And he fell upon his brother Binyamiyn's neck, and wept; and
Binyamiyn wept upon his neck.
15. Moreover, he kissed all his brothers, and wept upon them:
and after that his brothers talked with him.
16. And the fame 8034 it was heard in Par'oh's
house, saying, Yoseph's brothers are come": and it pleased Par'oh well,
and his servants.
17. And said Par'oh to Yoseph, "Say to your brothers,'Do
this; lade your beasts 1165, and return to the land of Kenaan;
18. and take your father and your households and come to me: and
I will give you the good of the land of Mitsrayim, and you shall eat the fat of
the land.
19. Now you are commanded, do this; you take wagons out of the
land of Mitsrayim for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your
father, and come.
20. Also do not regard your stuff 3627; because the
good of the land of Mitsrayim is yours."
21. And the children of Yisrael did so: and Yoseph gave them
wagons, according to the commandment of Par'oh, and gave them provisions for
the way.
22. To all of them he gave each man changes 2487 of
clothing 8071, but to Binyamiyn he gave three hundred pieces of
silver, and five changes of clothing.
23. To his father he sent after this manner; ten
asses laden with the good things of Mitsrayim, and ten she-asses laden with
corn and bread and meat for his father by the way.
24. So he sent his brothers away, and they departed: and he said
to them, "See that you do not quarrel 7264 on the
way."
25. And they went up out of Mitsrayim, and came into the
land of K'naan to Yaaqob their father.
26. and told him, saying, "Yoseph is still alive, and he is
governor over all the land of Mitsrayim!" And Yaaqobs heart fainted,
because he did not believe them.
27. And they told him the words of Yoseph, which he had said to
them: and when he saw the wagons which Yoseph had sent to carry him, the spirit
of Yaaqob their father revived.
28. And said Yisrael, "It is enough! Yoseph my
son is still alive: I will go and see him before I die."
Genesis
Chapter 46
1. Took Yisrael his journey with all that he had, and came
to Beer~Sheba, and offered sacrifices to Elohey 430 his father
Yitschaq.
2. Spoke Elohiym to Yisrael in the visions of the night, and
said, "Yaaqob! Yaaqob!" And he replied, "Behold
me!"
3. He said, "I am the El 410,
Elohey 430 your father: fear not to go down into Mitsrayemah,
for I will there make of you a great nation.
4. I will go down with you into Mitsrayemah; and I will also
surely bring you up again: and Yoseph shall put his hand upon your
eyes."
5. Rose up Yaaqob from B'er Sheba: and carried the sons of
Yisrael Yaaqob their father, and their little ones, and their wives, in the
wagons which Paroh had sent to carry him.
6. Took they their livestock, and their goods, which they had
gotten in the land of Kenaan, and came into Mitsrayemah, Yaaqob, and all his
seed2233 with him:
7. his sons, and his sons‘ sons with him, his daughters and his
sons’ daughters, and all his seed he brought with him into Mitsrayemah.
8. These are the names of the children of Yisrael, which came
into Mitsrayemah, Yaaqob and his sons: R'uben, Yaaqob's firstborn.

and M'rariy 4847.
12. The sons of Yahudah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perets, and Zerach:
but Er and Onan died in the land of K'naan. The sons of Perets were Chets'ron2696 and

13. The sons of Yissaschar: Tola 8439, Puwwah 63l2,

14. The sons of Z'bulun: Sered 5624, Elon 356,
and Yach'l'el 3177.
15. These are the sons of Leah, which she bare unto Yaaqob in
Padan Aram, with his daughter Diynah: all the people of his sons and his
daughters were thirty three.
16. The sons of Gad: Tsiphyon 6837, Chaggiy 2291,

Goshenah; and they came into the land of Goshen.
29. And Yoseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet
Yisrael his father, to Goshenah, and presented himself to him; and he fell on
his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.
30. Said Yisrael to Yoseph, "Now let me die, since I have
seen your face, and you are still alive."
31. Said Yoseph to his brothers, and to his father's household,
"I will go up, and tell Par'oh, and say to
him, 'My brothers, and my father's household, which were in the
land of Kenaan, have come to me;
32. and the men are shepherds, for their trade has been to feed
livestock; and they have brought their flocks and their herds, and all that
have.'
33. And it shall be, when Par'oh shall call you, and shall say,
'What is your occupation?'
34. that you shall say, 'Your servants' trade has been about
livestock from our youth until now, both we, and also our fathers,' so you may
dwell in the land of Goshen; because every shepherd is an abomination to the
Mitsrayim."

1. And it was at that
time, that went down Yahudah from with his brothers, and turned in5186 unto
a man of Adullamiy 5726, whose name was Chiyrah 2437.
2. Saw there Yahudah a
daughter of a man of K'naaniy 3669, whose name was Shua 7770,
and he took her, and went in unto her.
3. And she
conceived 2029, and bore a son; and he called his name Er 6197.
4. And she conceived
again, and bore a son, and he called his name Onan 209.
5. And she yet 3254 again 5750conceived,
and bore a son, and he called his name Shelah 7956. And he was at
Ch'ziyb 3580 when she bore him.
6. Took Yahudah a wife
for Er his firstborn, and her name was Tamar 8559.
7. And was Er the
firstborn of Yahudah evil 7451 in the eyes of Yahweh; and
slew 4191 him Yahweh.
8. And said Yahudah to
Onan, "Go in unto the wife of your brother, and do the duty of a
brother2992 to her, and raise up6965 seed 2233 to
yourdead brother."
9. And knew 3045 Onan
that it would not be his seed, and it was when he went in unto the wife of his
brother, he spoiled 7843 it upon the ground, failing 1115 to
give seed to his brother.
10. This was
wicked 7489 in the eyes of Yahweh that which he
did: and He slew him also.
11. Said Yahudah to
Tamar his daughter-in-law 3618, "Dwell as a widow 490 in
the household of your father until has grown 1431 Shelah my
son;" for he said, "Lest perhaps6435 he die
also, as his brothers." And went Tamar to
dwell in the household of her father.
12. And in many 7235 days 3117 died
the daughter of Shua, the wife of Yahudah; and was comforted 5162 Yahudah,
and he went up to his shearers 1494 of sheep 6629,
he and Chiyrah his friend 7453 the
Adullamiy, to Tim'nathah 8553.
13. And was told to
Tamar, saying, "Behold, your father-in-law 2524 goes up to Tim'nathah to
the shearers of sheep.
14. And she put 5493 the
garments 899 of a widow 491 off from upon
her, and covered 3680 herself with a veil 6809,
and wrapped 5968 herself, and sat in a doorway 6607 in plain
sight5879, which was by the way to Tim'nathah; for she saw
that grown 1431 was Shelah, and she had not been given to him
as a wife.
15. And saw her
Yahudah, and he thought 2803 her a harlot 2181;
because she covered her face.
16. He turned 5186 to
her by the way, and said, "Permit 3051 me, I pray, to come in unto
you;" (for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law,) and she
said, "What wil you give to me for coming in unto me?"
17. He said, "I
will send a kid 1423 of the goats 5975 from
the flock." And she said, "Will you give me a pledge 6162 until
you send it?
18. And he said,
"What is the pledge that I should give you?" And she said, "Your
signet 2368, and the cord 6616 it hangs upon , and
your staff4294 that is in your hand." And he gave them to her,
and went in unto her, and she conceived 2029 by him.
19. And she arose, and
walked away, and removed 5493 her veil from upon her, and put
on the garments of her widowhood.
20. And sent Yahudah
the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamiy, to take back his
pledge from the hand of the
woman: and he could not find her.
21. Then asked he the
men of that place, saying, "Where 346 is the harlot 6948 that
was in plain sight by the way?" And they said ,"There was no harlot
in this place."
22. And he returned to
Yahudah, and said, " I cannot find her, and also the men of that place
said, "There was no harlot in this place.'"
23. And said Yahudah,
"Let her take it, lest we be shamed 937: behold, I sent this kid, and and
you have not found her."
24. And it was, in
three months, it was told to Yahudah, saying, "Played the harlot2181 Tamar
your daughter-in-law; and also, behold, she conceived by harlotry." And
said Yahudah, "Bring her forth, and burn her8313."
25. And she was
brought forth, and sent to her father-in-law, sayind, "The man that are
these, I conceived by." and she said, "Discern now whose signet, and
its cord, and staff are these?"
26. And discerned
Yahudah, and said, "More righteous 6663 than I is
she." because over this he had not given her to Shelah his son. And he
did not again any more know her.
27. And it was at the
time of her birthing, behold, twins 8380 were in her
womb 990!
28. And it was, when
she gave birth, that one put out his hand: and took the
midwife and bound 7194 upon the hand a crimson 8144
thread, saying, "This came forth first 7223."
29. And it was, he
returned 7725 his hand, and behold, came forth his brother,
and she said, "How have you broken forth6555?
Upon you is thisbreach 6556." And she called his
name Perets 6557.
30. And after came
forth his brother, which upon his hand was the crimson thread. And
she called his name Zarach 2226.
Genesis Chapter 39
1. Yoseph was brought down to Mits'ray'mah 4714,
and bought 7069 him Potiyphar 6318, an
officer 5631 of Par'oh, captain 8269 of the
guard 2876, a man of Mits'riy 4713, from the hands of
the Yish'm'eliym 3459 that had brought him down there.
2. And was Yahweh with Yoseph, and he was a prosperous 6743 man,
and he was in the household of his master 113 the Mits'riy.
3. And saw his master that Yahweh was with him, and all that he
did Yahweh made to prosper in his hand.
4. And found Yoseph grace 2580 in his sight,
and he served 8334 him: and he was overseer 6485 over
his household, and all he had 3426 he put in his hand.
5. And it was, from the time 227 he was
overseer in his household, and over all that he had, blessed Yahweh the
household of the Mits'riy for the sake 1558 of Yoseph the
blessing of Yahweh on all that he had in the house, and in the field.
6. And he left 5800 all in the hands of
Yoseph;and he did not know anything 3972 he had, except the
bread that he ate. And was Yoseph beautiful3303 of appearance 8389,
and beautiful to see 4758.
7. And it was, after these things, lifted up the wife of his
master her eyes towards Yoseph, and said, "Lie with me!"
8. He refused 3985, and said to the wife of his
master, "Behold, my master does not know what is in the house with me, and
all that he has, he has put into my hands.
9. There is none greater in this household than me; and he has
not kept back2820 from me anything 3972 from
me but you, for you are his wife:how can I do such great evil as this, and
sin 2398 against Elohiym?"
10. And it was, as she spoke to Yoseph day to day, and he did
not listen to her, to lie near her, or be with her.
11. It was at this time, he went into the house to do his
stewardship 4399; and no man of the men of the household were there
in the house,
12. and she siezed 8610 by his garment, saying,
"Lie with me!" And he left 5800 his garment in her
hand, and fled 5127, and went forth outside2351.
13. And it was, when she saw that he had left his garment in her
hand, and fled outside,
14. that she called to the men of the household, and spoke to
them, saying, "See, he has brought a man of the Ib'riy 5680 to make
a toy of6711me, he came to lie with me, and I cried out with a
loud voice;
15. and it was, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and
cried out, he left his garment with me, and fled, going forth outside."
16. She put aside the garment beside her, until came the lord of
the household.
17. She spoke to him these words, saying, "Came to me the
servant , the Hebrew, that you have brought to us, to make a toy of6711 me;
18. and it was, when I lifted up my voice and cried out, he left
his garment with me, and fled outside."
19. And it was, when heard his lord the words of his wife, that
she spoke to him, saying, "This is the manner 1697 that
treated 6213 me your servant!" that was kindled his
anger.
20. And took his lord Yoseph, and put him into the House of
Roundness 5470, the place that the prisoners 631 of
the king were bound 615. And he was there in the House of
Roundness,
21. But was Yahweh with Yoseph, and showed 5186 him mercy 2617,
and gave him favor 2580 in the eyes of of the keeper 8269 of the House of
Roundness.
22. And put the keeper of the House of Roundness in the hand of
Yoseph all the prisoners that were in the House of Roundness, and all they did
there, he was the doer of it.
23. And did not the keeper of the House of Roundness look at
anything under his hand, for Yahweh was with him, and that which he did Yahweh
made to prosper 6743.
Genesis
Chapter 40
1. And it was after these things that had missed their
duty2398 the cup-bearer 4945 of the king
of Mits'rayim, and the baker 644 of their lord 113 the
king of Mits'rayim.
2. Was wroth 7107 Par'oh against two of his
eunuchs 5631, against the chief 8269 of the cup-bearers 4945,
and against the chief of the bakers 644,
3. and he put them under confinement4929 in
the house of the captain of the guard 2876, into the House of
Roundness, the place that Yoseph was bound there.
4.And charged 6485 the captain of the guard
Yoseph with them, and he attended 8334 to them. And they were
for some days under confinement.
5. Dreamed 2492 a dream 2472 both
of them, each man a dream in one night, each man each man by the
interpretation 6623 of their dream, the cup-bearer and the
baker of the king of Mits'rayim, that were bound in the House of Roundness.
6. Came to them Yoseph in the morning, and looked at them, and
behold, they were sad 2196.
7. He asked 7592 the eunuchs of Par'oh that
were with him in confinement in the house of his lord, saying, "Why 4069 is
your face 6440 sad 7451today?"
8. They said to him, "A dream we have dreamed, and an
interpreter 6622 is none 369 for it."
And said to them Yoseph, "Are not of Elohiym interpretations 6623?
Tell 5608 me, I pray 4994 you."
9. Told the chief cup-bearer the dream to Yoseph, and said to
him, "In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
10. and in the vine were three tendrils 8299: and it
was as if they budded 6524 and rose up her blossoms 5322;
and brought forth1310 clusters 811 of ripe
grapes6025:
11. and the cup 3563 of Par'oh was in my hand,
and I took the ripe grapes, and pressed 7818 them into the cup
of Par'oh, and gave the cup into the hand of Par'oh.
12. And said Yoseph, "This is the interpretation 6623 of
it: the three tendrils are three days:
13. Yet within three days shall lift up Par'oh your head, and
return you unto your station 3653: and you shall give the cup of
Par'oh into his hand, after the former 7223 manner 4941 when
you were his cup-bearer.
14. But remember 2142 me when it is well 3190 with
you, and do 6213 I pray you, kindness 2617,
and make mention 2142 of me to Par'oh, and
bring me forth from this house:
15. because I was indeed stolen1589/1589 from
the land of the Ib'riym 5680: and also here I have not done
anything to put me in this pit 953."
16. When saw the chief baker that good was the
interpretation 6622, he said to Yoseph, "Also 637 I was in
my dream, and behold, three white2751 baskets 5536 were
upon my head:
17. and in the basket that was uppermost 5945 was
all eatables 3978 of Par'oh, the work 4639 of
a baker 644, and the birds 5775 ate them from the
basket upon my head."
18. And answered Yoseph, saying, "This is the
interpretation of it: The three baskets are three days:
19. yet within three days will lift up Par'oh your head from
upon you, and shall hang 8518 you upon a tree; and shall eat
the birds the flesh 1320from upon you."
20. And it was in three days, the day of the birth of Par'oh,
that he made a feast 4960 for all his servants: and he lifted
up the head of the chief cup-bearer and the head of the chief baker among his
servants.
21. And he returned the chief cup-bearer unto cup-bearing, and
giving the cup into the hand of Par'oh:
22. and the chief baker he hung; as interpreted to them by
Yoseph.
23. And did not remember the chief cup-bearer Yoseph; but
forgot 7911 him.
1. And called
Yits'chaq to Yaaqob, and blessed him, and commanded 6680, saying to
him, "You shall not take to wife of
the daughters of K'naan.
2. Arise, and walk to
Padenah-Aram 6307, to the house of B'thuel 1328, the
father of your mother, and take for you from there a wife of the daughters of
Laban 3837 the brother of your mother.
3. El 410 Shadday 7706 bless
you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you become an assembly 6951 of
peoples 5971;
4. and give to you the
blessings 1293 of Ab'raham, to you and your seedline with you;
to inherit 3423 the land where you sojourn 4033 that
gave Elohiym to Ab'raham."
5. And sent away
Yits'chaq Yaaqob; and he walked to Padenah-Aram to Laban son of B'thuel the
Arammiy 761, brother of Rib'qah, mother of Yaaqob and Esaw.

Padenah-Aram to take him from there a wife; and blessed him, and commanded to
him, saying, "You shall not take to wife from
the daughters of K'naan,"
7. and listened Yaaqob
to his father and to his mother and walked to Padenah-Aram;
8. and seeing Esaw

Yahweh Appears to Yaaqob at B'er-Sheba
10. Went forth Yaaqob
from B'er-Sheba, and walked to Charanah.
11. He camped 6293 at
a place, and stayed all night3885 there, because
had gone down the sun, and he took one of the
stones of that place and put it as his head place4763,
and lay down to sleep in that place.
12. He dreamed 2492,
and beheld a ladder 5551standing up5324 on
the ground, and the top of it reached 5060 the sky; and he
beheld the messengers 4397 of Elohiym ascending 5927 and
descending 3381 it;
13. and behold, Yahweh
was standing up upon it, and He said, "I am Yahweh, Elohey Ab'raham
your forefather, and Elohey Yits'chaq. The land that you lay down upon, to you
I give it, and to your seedline.
14. And shall
be your seedline as the dust of the ground, and you shall spread abroad6555seaward,
and to the east, and to the north, and to the south, and shallbe blessed by you
all your clans 4940of the soil of your seedline.
15. And
behold, I am with you, and will keep 8104 you
everywhere that you walk, and will return you to this soil: for I will not
leave 5800 you, until that I have done that which I
spoke to you."
16. And awakened 3364 Yaaqob
from his sleep 8142, and said, "Surely 403 is 3426 Yahweh
in this place; and I did not know it!"
17. He was afraid 3372,
and said, "How awesome 3372 is this place! Is not this
the House 1004 of Elohiym, and this the gate 8179 of
the sky?"
18. And rose up early
Yaaqob in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his head-place,
and put it up for a pillar 4676,and poured3332 oil upon
the top of it.
19. He called the name
of that place Beyth-El 1008; but 199 Luz 3870 was
the name of that city at the first 7223.
20. And vowed 5087 Yaaqob
a vow 5088, saying, "If shall be Elohiym with me, and will
guard 8104 me in this way that I walk, and give me bread to
eat, and clothes 899 to wear 3847,
21. so I return in
peace to the house of my father; then shall be Yahweh to me Elohiym;
22. and this stone,
which I have placed for a pillar, shall be the House of Elohiym, and of all
that You give to me I will surely give the tenth 6237/6237 to
You."
Genesis Chapter 29
1. Lifted
up5375 Yaaqob his feet 7272 and walked
to the land of the sons of the east 6924.
2. And he looked, and
beheld a well in the field, and beheld there three flocks 5739 of
sheep 6629 lying down7257 upon it, because
from that well they gave water8248 to the flocks;
and a great stone was upon the mouth 6310 of the well.
3. And gathered 622
there were all the flocks; and they rolled 1556 the stone from upon the mouth
of the well and gave water to the sheep and returned the stone upon the mouth
of the well in its place.
4. Said to them
Yaaqob, "My kinsmen, from where are you?" And they said, "From
Charan are we."
5. And said he to
them, "Know you Laban son of Nachor?" And they said, "We know
him."
6. And said he to
them, "Is he well7965?" And they said, "He
is well7965: behold, Rachel 7354 his daughter
comes with the sheep."
7. And he said,
"Lo 2005, it is yet 5750 high 1419 day 3117,
and not time 6256 to gather the livestock 4735.
water the sheep, and go feed them."
8. They said, "We
are not able until that gathered are all the flocks, and the y roll 1556 the
stone from upon the mouth of the well; then we water the sheep."
9. While he yet spoke
with them, Rachel came with the sheep that were her father's, for she
shepherded 7462 them.
10. And it was, that
when saw Yaaqob Rachel daughter of Laban the brother of his mother, and the
sheep of Laban brother

rolled the stone from upon the mouth of the well, and watered the sheep of
Laban brother of his mother.
11. And kissed 5401 Yaaqob
Rachel, and lifted up his voice and wept 1058.
12. Told Yaaqob Rachel
that he was kindred 251 to her father, and that he was son to Rib'qah; and she
ran and told her father.
13. And it was when
heard Laban the news 8088 of Yaaqob the son of his sister,
that he ran to meet him, and embraced 2263 him, and kissed
him, and brought him to his house, and he told Laban all these things.
14. And said to him
Laban, "Surely 389 my bone 6106 and my
flesh 1320 are you." And he dwelt with him a month 2320 of
days 3117.
15. Said Laban to
Yaaqob, "Because you are my kin, should you serve me for nothing 2600?
Tell me, what should your wages 4909 be?
16. And had Laban two
daughters; the name of the elder was Leah 3812, and the name of the
younger 6996 was Rachel 7354.
17. And the eyes 5869 of
Leah were tender 7390; but Rachel was beautiful 3303 of
form 8389, and beautiful of appearance 4758.
18. Loved 157 Yaaqob
Rachel; and he said, "I will serve you seven years for Rachel your younger
daughter."
19. Said Laban,
"Better that I give her to you, than give her to another man. Abide with
me."
20. Served Yaaqob for
Rachel seven years, and it was in his eyes as a few 259 days,
because of his love 160 for her.
21. Said Yaaqob to
Laban, "Give 3051 me my wife, because fulfilled 4390 is
my time 3117, that I may go in unto935 her."
22. Gathered 622 Laban
all the men of the place, and made 6213 a feast 4960.
23. And it was in the
evening, that he took Leah his daughter, and brought her to him, and Yaaqob
went in unto her.
24. Gave Laban to her
Zil'pah 2153 his maidservant 8198 to Leah his
daughter as a maidservant.
25. And it was in the
morning, behold, it was Leah! Said he to Laban, "What is this that you
have done to me? Did I not for Rachel serve with you? So why have you deceived 7411 me?
26. Said Laban,
"It must not be done in this place, to give the younger 6810 before
the firstborn 1067.
27. Fulfill 4390 her
week 7620, and this I will give to you , also this, for service 5656 that
you serve 5647 with me yet 5750 seven years
afterward 312."
28. And did Yaaqob so,
and fulfilled her week, and he gave him Rachel his daughter as a wife.
29. Gave Laban to
Rachel his daughter Bil'hah 1090 his maidservant as her
maidservant.
30. Yaaqob went
in also unto Rachel, and loved he also Rachel more than Leah, and he served
with him yet seven years afterwards.
31. And saw Yahweh
that was hated 8130 Leah, He opened 6605 her
womb 7358; and Rachel was barren 6135.
32. And conceived 2029 Leah,
and bore a son, and called his name R'uben 7205: for she said,
"For has seen 7200 Yahweh my affliction 6040;
for now I will be loved 157 by my husband."
33. She conceived yet
again, and bore a son, and said, "For had heard Yahweh that I was hated,
and has given me also this 2088:" and called she his name
Shim'on 8095.
34. And she conceived
yet again, and bore a son, and said, "Now 6258 this time 6451 will
I be joined 3867 my husband to me, for I have borne him three
sons." Upon this called she his name Lewiy 3878.
35. Yet again she
conceived, and bore a son, and said, "Now 6471I will
praise3034Yahweh," and upon this called she
his name Yahudah3063; and ceased 5975 from
bearing.
