Genesis 31:6-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁶ You know that I have served your father with all my strength; ⁷ yet your father has cheated me and changed my wages ten times, but God did not permit him to harm me. ⁸ If he said, “The speckled shall be your wages”, then all the flock bore speckled; and if he said, “The striped shall be your wages”, then all the flock bore striped. ⁹ Thus God has taken away the livestock of your father, and given them to me.
