# there is my servant Bilhah ... I will have children by her

At that time, this was an acceptable way for a barren woman to have children that would legally belong to her. The full meaning of this may be made explicit. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])

# Bilhah

This is the name of Rachel's female servant. See how you translated this name in [Genesis 29:29](../29/29.md).

# Go in to her

This is a polite way of talking about sexual relations. You may need to use different words in your language. Alternate translation: "Have sexual relations with her" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-euphemism]])

# on my knees

This is a way of saying that the child that Bilhah gives birth to will belong to Rachel. Alternate translation: "for me" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]])

# I will have children by her

"and in this way she will cause me to have children"
