13 Léa dit: Que je suis heureuse! Car les filles me diront heureuse. Et elle l’appela du nom d’Aser.

14 Ruben sortit au temps de la moisson des blés, et trouva des mandragores dans les champs. Il les apporta à Léa, sa mère. Alors Rachel dit à Léa: Donne-moi, je te prie, des mandragores de ton fils.

15 Elle lui répondit: Est-ce peu que tu aies pris mon mari, pour que tu prennes aussi les mandragores de mon fils? Et Rachel dit: Eh bien! Il couchera avec toi cette nuit pour les mandragores de ton fils.

16 Le soir, comme Jacob revenait des champs, Léa sortit à sa rencontre, et dit: C’est vers moi que tu viendras, car je t’ai acheté pour les mandragores de mon fils. Et il coucha avec elle cette nuit.

17 Dieu exauça Léa, qui devint enceinte, et enfanta un cinquième fils à Jacob.
