Gen 30:19 Leah conceived again and bore a sixth son to Jacob.
Gen 30:20 Then Leah said, "God has endowed me with a good gift; now my husband will dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons." So she named him Zebulun.
Gen 30:21 Afterward she bore a daughter and named her Dinah.
Gen 30:22 ¶ Then God remembered Rachel, and God gave heed to her and opened her womb.
Gen 30:23 So she conceived and bore a son and said, "God has taken away my reproach."
Gen 30:24 She named him Joseph, saying, "May the LORD give me another son."
Gen 30:25 ¶ Now it came about when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, "Send me away, that I may go to my own place and to my own country.
Gen 30:26 "Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served you, and let me depart; for you yourself know my service which I have rendered you."
Gen 30:27 But Laban said to him, "If now it pleases you, stay with me; I have divined that the LORD has blessed me on your account."
Gen 30:28 He continued, "Name me your wages, and I will give it."
Gen 30:29 But he said to him, "You yourself know how I have served you and how your cattle have fared with me.
Gen 30:30 "For you had little before I came and it has increased to a multitude, and the LORD has blessed you wherever I turned. But now, when shall I provide for my own household also?"
Gen 30:31 So he said, "What shall I give you?" And Jacob said, "You shall not give me anything. If you will do this one thing for me, I will again pasture and keep your flock:
Gen 30:32 let me pass through your entire flock today, removing from there every speckled and spotted sheep and every black one among the lambs and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and such shall be my wages.
Gen 30:33 "So my honesty will answer for me later, when you come concerning my wages. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats and black among the lambs, if found with me, will be considered stolen."
Gen 30:35 So he removed on that day the striped and spotted male goats and all the speckled and spotted female goats, every one with white in it, and all the black ones among the sheep, and gave them into the care of his sons.
Gen 30:36 And he put a distance of three days' journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.
Gen 30:37 ¶ Then Jacob took fresh rods of poplar and almond and plane trees, and peeled white stripes in them, exposing the white which was in the rods.
Gen 30:38 He set the rods which he had peeled in front of the flocks in the gutters, even in the watering troughs, where the flocks came to drink; and they mated when they came to drink.
Gen 30:39 So the flocks mated by the rods, and the flocks brought forth striped, speckled, and spotted.
