Genesis 30:30-32

Common English Bible

³⁰ While in my care, what little you had has multiplied a great deal. The Lord blessed you wherever I took your livestock.^[a] Now, when will I be able to work for my own household too?”

³¹ Laban said, “What will I pay you?”

Jacob said, “Don’t pay me anything. If you will do this for me, I will take care of your flock again, and keep a portion.^{[b] 32} I will go through the entire flock today, taking out all of the speckled and spotted sheep, all of the black male lambs, and all of the spotted and speckled female goats. That will be my price.
