two hundred female goats, twenty male goats, two hundred ewes, twenty rams,

So God said to him, “Bring Me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.”

Then they took Joseph’s tunic, slaughtered a male goat and dipped the tunic in the blood;

but when the flock was sickly, he did not put the branches there; so the sicker [animals] were Laban’s and the stronger Jacob’s.

Jacob answered him, “You know how I have served you and how your possessions, your cattle and sheep and goats, have fared with me.
