4 Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field to his flock,
5 and said to them, "I see the expression on your father`s face, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father has been with me.
6 You know that I have served your father with all of my strength.
7 Your father has deceived me, and changed my wages ten times, but God didn`t allow him to hurt me.
8 If he said this, `The speckled will be your wages,` then all the flock bore speckled. If he said this, `The streaked will be your wages,` then all the flock bore streaked.
9 Thus God has taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.
10 It happened at the time that the flock conceive, that I lifted up my eyes, and saw in a dream, and behold, the male goats which leaped on the flock were streaked, speckled, and grizzled.
