Legacy Standard Bible

³⁸ And he set the rods which he had peeled in front of the flocks in the trough, that is, in the watering channels, where the flocks came to drink; and they ^[a]mated when they came to drink. ³⁹ So the flocks ^[b]mated by the rods, and the flocks brought forth striped, speckled, and spotted. ⁴⁰ And Jacob separated the lambs, and he ^[c]made the flocks face toward the striped and all the black in the flock of Laban; and he set his own herds apart and did not set them with Laban’s flock.
