²⁹ So Jacob said to him, ^(A)“You know how I have served you and how your livestock has been with me.

³⁸ These twenty years I have been with you; your ewes and your female goats have not miscarried their young, and I have not eaten the rams of your flock. ^39 (A)That which was torn by beasts I did not bring to you; I bore the loss of it. ^(B)You required it from my hand, whether stolen by day or stolen by night. ⁴⁰ There I was! In the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night, and my sleep departed from my eyes. ⁴¹ Thus I have been in your house twenty years; I ^(C)served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your flock, and ^(D)you have changed my wages ten times.
