Genesis 31:1–16

And he heard the words of Laban’s sons, saying, Jacob hath taken away all that was our father’s; and of that which was of our father’s hath he gotten all this ^aglory. ²And Jacob beheld ^bthe countenance of Laban, and behold, it was not toward him as before. ³And the Lord said unto Jacob, ^cReturn unto the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will be with thee. ⁴And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock, ⁵and said unto them, ^dI see your father’s countenance, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father ^ehath been with me. ⁶And ^fye know that with all my power I have served your father. ⁷And your father hath deceived me, and changed my wages ^gten times; but God suffered him not to hurt me. ⁸If he said thus, ^hThe speckled shall be thy wages; then all the cattle bare speckled: and if he said thus, The ringstraked shall be thy hire; then bare all the cattle ringstraked. ⁹Thus God hath ⁱtaken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me. ¹⁰And it came to pass at the time that the cattle conceived, that I lifted up mine eyes, and saw in a dream, and behold, the rams which leaped upon the cattle were ringstraked, speckled, and grisled. ¹¹And the angel of God spake unto me in a dream, saying, Jacob: And I said, Here am I. ¹²And he said, Lift up now thine eyes, and see, all the rams which leap upon the cattle are ringstraked, speckled, and ^kgrisled: for ^lI have seen all that Laban doeth unto thee. ¹³I am the God of Beth-el, ^mwhere thou anointedst the pillar, and where thou vowedst a vow unto me: ⁿnow arise, get thee out from this land, and return unto the land of thy kindred. ¹⁴And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him, Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father’s house? ¹⁵Are we not counted of him strangers? for ^ohe hath sold us, and hath quite devoured also our money. ¹⁶For all the riches which God hath taken from our father, that is ours, and our children’s: now then, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do.
