"for the price of my son's mandrakes." See how "mandrake" was translated in [Genesis 30:14](./14.md).
## She conceived ##
"She became pregnant"
## and bore Jacob a fifth son ##
"and gave birth to a fifth son for Jacob"
## my wages ##
Leah believed that God was rewarding her for giving her servant to Jacob. Alternate translation: "my due" or "my reward"
## She called his name Issachar. ##
Translators may also add a footnote that says: "The name Issachar means 'there is a reward.'"
