Genesis 31:7-12

7And your fatherH1 hath deceived meH5414, and changedH2498 my wagesH4909 tenH6235 timesH4489; but GodH430 suffered him notH3808 to hurt meH5414.

8IfH518 he saidH559 thusH3541, The speckledH5348 shall be thy wagesH7939; then allH3605 the flockH6629 bare speckledH5348: and ifH518 he saidH559 thusH3541, The ringstraked shall be thy wagesH7939; then bare allH3605 the flockH6629 ringstraked.

9Thus GodH430 hath takenH5337 awayH5337 the cattleH4735 of your fatherH1, and givenH5414 them to meH5414.

10And it cameH1961 to passH1961 at the time that the flockH6629 conceivedH3179, that I liftedH5375 upH5927 mine eyesH5869, and sawH7200 in a dreamH2472, and, beholdH2009, the he-goats whichH5869 leaped uponH5921 the flockH6629 were ringstraked, speckledH5348, and grisled.

11And the angelH4397 of GodH430 saidH559 unto meH413 in the dreamH2472, JacobH3290: and I saidH559, HereH2009 am I.

12And he saidH559, LiftH5375 upH5927 nowH4994 thine eyesH5869, and seeH7200, allH3605 the he-goats whichH834 leap uponH5921 the flockH6629 are ringstraked, speckledH5348, and grisled: for I have seenH7200 allH3605 that LabanH3837 doeth unto thee.
