Ya`akov came from the field in the evening, and Le'ah went out to meet him, and said, *You must come in to me; for I have surely hired you with my son's dudaim.* He lay with her that night.
The LORD said, *I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.
But the angel said to him, *Don't be afraid, Zekharyah, because your request has been heard, and your wife, Elisheva, will bear you a son, and you shall call his name Yochanan.
It happened, when the time was come about, that Channah conceived, and bore a son; and she named him Shemu'el, [saying], Because I have asked him of the LORD.
