Genesis 30:25-43

And it came to pass, when Rachel
<07354>
had born
<03205> (8804)
Joseph
<03130>_,
that Jacob
<03290>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Laban
<03837>_,
Send me away
<07971> (8761)_,
that I may go
<03212> (8799)
unto mine own place
<04725>_,
and to my country
<0776>_.
Give
<05414> (8798)
[me] my wives
<0802>
and my children
<03206>_,
for
<02004>
whom I have served
<05647> (8804)
thee, and let me go
<03212> (8799)_:
for thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
my service
<05656>
which I have done
<05647> (8804)
thee.
And Laban
<03837>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, I pray thee, if I have found
<04672> (8804)
favour
<02580>
in thine eyes
<05869>_,
[tarry: for] I have learned by experience
<05172> (8765)
that the LORD
<03068>
hath blessed
<01288> (8762)
me for thy sake
<01558>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Appoint
<05344> (8798)
me thy wages
<07939>_,
and I will give
<05414> (8799)
[it].
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
how
<0834>
I have served
<05647> (8804)
thee, and how
<0834>
thy cattle
<04735>
was with me.
For [it was] little
<04592>
which thou hadst before I
<06440>
[came], and it is [now] increased
<06555> (8799)
unto a multitude
<07230>_;
and the LORD
<03068>
hath blessed
<01288> (8762)
thee since my coming
<07272>_:
and now when
<04970>
shall I provide
<06213> (8799)
for mine own house
<01004>
also? {increased: Heb. broken forth} {since...: Heb. at my foot}
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
What shall I give thee
<05414> (8799)_?
And Jacob
<03290>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thou shalt not give
<05414> (8799)
me any thing
<03972>_:
if thou wilt do
<06213> (8799)
this thing
<01697>
for me, I will again
<07725> (8799)
feed
<07462> (8799)
[and] keep
<08104> (8799)
thy flock
<06629>_:
I will pass
<05674> (8799)
through all thy flock
<06629>
to day
<03117>_,
removing
<05493> (8687)
from thence all the speckled
<05348>
and spotted
<02921> (8803)
cattle
<07716>_,
and all the brown
<02345>
cattle
<07716>
among the sheep
<03775>_,
and the spotted
<02921> (8803)
and speckled
<05348>
among the goats
<05795>_:
and [of such] shall be my hire
<07939>_.
So shall my righteousness
<06666>
answer
<06030> (8804)
for me in time
<03117>
to come
<04279>_,
when it shall come
<0935> (8799)
for my hire
<07939>
before thy face
<06440>_:
every one
<03605>
that [is] not speckled
<05348>
and spotted
<02921> (8803)
among the goats
<05795>_,
and brown
<02345>
among the sheep
<03775>_,
that shall be counted stolen
<01589> (8803)
with me. {in time...: Heb. to morrow}
And Laban
<03837>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold, I would it might be
<03863>
according to thy word
<01697>_.
And he removed
<05493> (8686)
that day
<03117>
the he goats
<08495>
that were ringstraked
<06124>
and spotted
<02921> (8803)_,
and all the she goats
<05795>
that were speckled
<05348>
and spotted
<02921> (8803)_,
[and] every one that had [some] white
<03836>
in it, and all the brown
<02345>
among the sheep
<03775>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
[them] into the hand
<03027>
of his sons
<01121>_.
And he set
<07760> (8799)
three
<07969>
days
<03117>_'
journey
<01870>
betwixt himself and Jacob
<03290>_:
and Jacob
<03290>
fed
<07462> (8802)
the rest
<03498> (8737)
of Laban's
<03837>
flocks
<06629>_.
And Jacob
<03290>
took
<03947> (8799)
him rods
<04731>
of green
<03892>
poplar
<03839>_,
and of the hazel
<03869>
and chesnut tree
<06196>_;
and pilled
<06478> (8762)
white
<03836>
strakes
<06479>
in them, and made the white
<03836>
appear
<04286>
which [was] in the rods
<04731>_.
And he set
<03322> (8686)
the rods
<04731>
which he had pilled
<06478> (8765)
before
<05227>
the flocks
<06629>
in the gutters
<07298>
in the watering
<04325>
troughs
<08268>
when the flocks
<06629>
came
<0935> (8799)
to drink
<08354> (8800)_,
that they should conceive
<03179> (8799)
when they came
<0935> (8800)
to drink
<08354> (8800)_.
And the flocks
<06629>
conceived
<03179> (8799)
before the rods
<04731>_,
and brought forth
<03205> (8799)
cattle
<06629>
ringstraked
<06124>_,
speckled
<05348>_,
and spotted
<02921> (8803)_.
And Jacob
<03290>
did separate
<06504> (8689)
the lambs
<03775>_,
and set
<05414> (8799)
the faces
<06440>
of the flocks
<06629>
toward
<0413>
the ringstraked
<06124>_,
and all the brown
<02345>
in the flock
<06629>
of Laban
<03837>_;
and he put
<07896> (8799)
his own flocks
<05739>
by themselves, and put
<07896> (8804)
them not unto Laban's
<03837>
cattle
<06629>_.
And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger
<07194> (8794)
cattle
<06629>
did conceive
<03179> (8763)_,
that Jacob
<03290>
laid
<07760> (8804)
the rods
<04731>
before the eyes
<05869>
of the cattle
<06629>
in the gutters
<07298>_,
that they might conceive
<03179> (8763)
among the rods
<04731>_.
But when the cattle
<06629>
were feeble
<05848> (8687)_,
he put [them] not in
<07760> (8799)_:
so the feebler
<05848> (8803)
were Laban's
<03837>_,
and the stronger
<07194> (8803)
Jacob's
<03290>_.
And the man
<0376>
increased
<06555> (8799)
exceedingly
<03966> <03966>_,
and had much
<07227>
cattle
<06629>_,
and maidservants
<08198>_,
and menservants
<05650>_,
and camels
<01581>_,
and asses
<02543>_.
