Genesis 30:22-34
22And GodH430 rememberedH2142 RachelH7354, and GodH430 hearkened to her, and openedH6605 her wombH7358. 23And she conceivedH2029, and bare a sonH1121: and saidH559, GodH430 hath taken away my reproachH2781: 24and she calledH7121 his nameH8034 JosephH3130, sayingH559, Jehovah addH3254 to me another sonH1121.
25And it came to pass, when RachelH7354 had borneH3205 JosephH3130, that JacobH3290 saidH559 unto LabanH3837, SendH7971 me awayH7971, that I may goH7971 unto mine own placeH4725, and to my country. 26GiveH5414 me my wivesH802 and my childrenH3206 for whom I have servedH5647 thee, and let me go: for thou knowest my serviceH5656 wherewith I have servedH5647 thee. 27And LabanH3837 saidH559 unto him, If now I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in thine eyesH5869, tarry: for I have divinedH5172 that Jehovah hath blessedH1288 me for thy sake. 28And he saidH559, Appoint me thy wagesH7939, and I will giveH5414 it. 29And he saidH559 unto him, Thou knowest how I have servedH5647 thee, and how thy cattle have fared with me. 30For it wasH1961 littleH4592 which thou hadst before I came, and it hath increased unto a multitudeH7230; and Jehovah hath blessedH1288 thee whithersoever I turned: and nowH6258 when shall I provide for mine own houseH1004 alsoH1571? 31And he saidH559, What shall I giveH5414 thee? And JacobH3290 saidH559, Thou shalt not giveH5414 me aught: if thou wilt do this thingH1697 for me, I will again feedH7462 thy flockH6629 and keepH8104 it. 32I will passH5674 through all thy flockH6629 to-day, removingH5493 from thence every speckled and spotted one, and every black one among the sheepH6629, and the spotted and speckled among the goatsH5795: and of such shall beH1961 my hireH7939. 33So shall my righteousnessH6666 answerH6030 for me hereafter, when thou shalt comeH935 concerning my hireH7939 that is before thee: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goatsH5795, and black among the sheep, that, if found with me, shall be counted stolenH1589. 34And LabanH3837 saidH559, Behold, I would it might beH1961 according to thy wordH1697.
