6. And ye know that with all my power I have served your father.
7. And your father hath deceived me, and changed my wages ten times: but God suffered him not to hurt me.
8. If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages; then all the cattle bore speckled: and if he said thus, The ring-streaked shall be thy hire; then all the cattle bore ring-streaked.
9. Thus God hath taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.
10. And it came to pass at the time that the cattle conceived, that I lifted up my eyes, and saw in a dream, and behold, the rams which leaped upon the cattle were ring-streaked, speckled, and grizzled.
11. And the angel of God spoke to me in a dream, saying, Jacob: And I said, Here am I.
12. And he said, Lift up now thy eyes and see, all the rams which leap upon the cattle are ring-streaked, speckled, and grizzled: for I have seen all that Laban doeth to thee.
13. I am the God of Beth-el, where thou anointedst the pillar, and where thou vowedst to me a vow: now arise, depart from this land, and return to the land of thy kindred.
14. And Rachel and Leah answered, and said to him, Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?
15. Are we not counted by him strangers; for he hath sold us, and hath quite consumed also our money.
16. For all the riches which God hath taken from our father, that is ours, and our children's: now then whatever God hath said to thee, do.
