Genesis 30:27-34

27And LabanH3837 saidH559 unto him, I pray thee, if I have foundH4672 favourH2580 in thine eyesH5869, tarry: for I have learned by experienceH5172 that YhwhH3068 hath blessedH1288 me for thy sakeH1558.

28And he saidH559, AppointH5344 me thy wagesH7939, and I will giveH5414 it.

29And he saidH559 unto him, Thou knowestH3045 howH834 I have servedH5647 thee, and howH834 thy cattleH4735 was with me.

30For it was littleH4592 which thou hadst before IH6440 came, and it is now increasedH6555 unto a multitudeH7230; And YhwhH3068 hath blessedH1288 thee since my comingH7272: and now whenH4970 shall I provideH6213 for mine own houseH1004 also?12

31And he saidH559, What shall I give theeH5414? And JacobH3290 saidH559, Thou shalt not giveH5414 me any thingH3972: if thou wilt doH6213 this thingH1697 for me, I will againH7725 feedH7462 and keepH8104 thy flockH6629:

32I will passH5674 through all thy flockH6629 to dayH3117, removingH5493 from thence all the speckledH5348 and spottedH2921 cattleH7716, and all the brownH2345 cattleH7716 among the sheepH3775, and the spottedH2921 and speckledH5348 among the goatsH5795: and of such shall be my hireH7939.

33So shall my righteousnessH6666 answerH6030 for me in timeH3117 to comeH4279, when it shall comeH935 for my hireH7939 before thy faceH6440: every oneH3605 that is not speckledH5348 and spottedH2921 among the goatsH5795, and brownH2345 among the sheepH3775, that shall be counted stolenH1589 with me.3

34And LabanH3837 saidH559, Behold, I would it might beH3863 according to thy wordH1697.
