Genesis 30:33

Context
30:33 My integrity will testify for me 1  later on. 2  When you come to verify that I’ve taken only the wages we agreed on, 3  if I have in my possession any goat that is not speckled or spotted or any sheep that is not dark-colored, it will be considered stolen.” 4 

1 tn Heb “will answer on my behalf.”

2 tn Heb “on the following day,” or “tomorrow.”

3 tn Heb “when you come concerning my wage before you.”

sn Only the wage we agreed on. Jacob would have to be considered completely honest here, for he would have no control over the kind of animals born; and there could be no disagreement over which animals were his wages.

4 tn Heb “every one which is not speckled and spotted among the lambs and dark among the goats, stolen it is with me.”
