And it was just as she had borne Rachel Joseph and he said Jacob to Laban send off me so let me go to place my and to land my.
26 Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served thee, and let me go: for thou knowest my service which I have done thee.
Give! wives my and children my whom I have served you for them so I may go for you you know service my which I have served you.

28 And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give it.
And he said designate! wage[s] your on me so let me give [it].
29 And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle was with me.
And he said to him you you know how I have served you and how it has been livestock your with me.
30 For it was little which thou hadst before I came, and it is now increased unto a multitude; and YHWH hath blessed thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also?
For a little which it be[longed] to you before me and it has increased to abundance and he has blessed Yahweh you to foot my and now when? will I work also I for own household my.
31 And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me any thing: if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep thy flock:
And he said what? will I give to you and he said Jacob not you will give to me anything if you will do for me the thing this I will return I will tend flock your I will protect [it].
32 I will pass through all thy flock to day, removing from thence all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all the brown cattle among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats: and of such shall be my hire.
Let me pass in all flock your this day I will remove from there every sheep - speckled and spotted and every sheep dark among the lambs and [the] spotted and [the] speckled among the goats and it will be wage[s] my.
33 So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my hire before thy face: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.
And it will testify for me righteousness my on a day in future time for you will come on wage[s] my before you all that not [is] it speckled and spotted among the goats and dark among the lambs [is] stolen it with me.
34 And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to thy word.
And he said Laban there! if let it be according to word your.
35 And he removed that day the he goats that were ringstraked and spotted, and all the she goats that were speckled and spotted, and every one that had some white in it, and all the brown among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.
And he removed on the day that the male goats striped and spotted and all the female goats speckled and spotted all that white [was] on it and every dark [one] among the lambs and he gave [them] in [the] hand of sons his.
36 And he set three days' journey betwixt himself and Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.
And he put a journey of three days between himself and between Jacob and Jacob [was] pasturing [the] flock of Laban which remained.
37 And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chesnut tree; and pilled white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.
And he took for himself Jacob branch[es] of poplar freshly cut and almond and plane tree and he stripped on them strips white [the] peeling of the white [wood] which [was] on the branches.
38 And he set the rods which he had pilled before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to drink, that they should conceive when they came to drink.
And he placed the branches which he had stripped in the drinking troughs in [the] watering channels of water which they came the flock to drink to before the flock and they mated when came they to drink.
39 And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.
And they mated the flock to the branches and they bore the flock striped [ones] speckled [ones] and spotted [ones].
40 And Jacob did separate the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ringstraked, and all the brown in the flock of Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves, and put them not unto Laban's cattle.
And the lambs he separated Jacob and he set [the] faces of the flock to [the] striped and every dark [one] among [the] flock of Laban and he made for himself flocks to only him and not he put them with [the] flock of Laban.
41 And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.
And it was in all [the] being in heat of the sheep vigorous [female] and he put out Jacob the branches to [the] eyes of the sheep in the drinking troughs to mate her at the branches.
42 But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in: so the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.
And when was feeble the sheep not he put [them] out and it was the enfeebled ones [belonged] to Laban and the vigorous [ones] [belonged] to Jacob.
43 And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.
And he increased the man very very and it be[longed] to him sheep many and female servants and [male] servants and camels and donkeys.
