6 And ye know that with all my strength I have served your father.
7 And your father has deceived me and changed my wages ten times, but God did not allow him to hurt me.
8 If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages; then all the sheep bore speckled; and if he said thus, The ringstraked shall be thy hire; then all the sheep bore ringstraked.
9 Thus God has taken away the livestock of your father and given them to me.
10 And it came to pass at the time that the sheep conceived, that I lifted up my eyes and saw in dreams, and, behold, the rams which leaped upon the females were ringstraked, speckled, and grisled.
11 And the angel of God spoke unto me in dreams, saying, Jacob: And I said, Here am I.
12 And he said, Lift up now thine eyes and see, all the rams which leap upon the sheep are ringstraked, speckled, and grisled; for I have seen all that Laban has done unto thee.
