Bereshis 31:6-14 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

6. And ye know that with all my koach I have served avichen.

7. And avichen hath deceived me, and changed my sachar aseret monim but Elohim allowed him not to harm me.

8. If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy sachar; then all the tzon bore speckled; and if he said thus, The streaked shall be thy sachar; then bore all the tzon streaked.

9. Thus Elohim hath taken away the mikneh of your av, and given them to me.

10. And it came to pass at the time that the tzon breed, that I lifted up mine eyes, and saw in a chalom, and, hinei, the male goats mounting the tzon were streaked, speckled, and spotted.

11. And the Malach HaElohim spoke unto me in a chalom saying, Ya'akov: And I said, Hineni.

12. And he said, Lift up now thine eyes, and see, all the male goats leaping upon the tzon are streaked, speckled, and spotted; for I have seen all that Lavan doeth unto thee.

13. I am HaEl Beit-El, where thou anointedst a matzevah (pillar), and where thou vowedst a neder (vow) unto Me: now arise, get thee out from HaAretz Hazot, and return unto thy eretz moledet.

14. And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him, Is there yet any chelek or nachalah for us in bais avinu?
