Laban » Outwitted by jacob
So then Jacob took him rods of young storax, and hazel and maple, - and peeled in them white stripes, laying bare the white which was on the rods. And he set the reds which he had peeled, in the channels in the troughs of water, - where the flocks came in to drink straight before the flocks, and the females of the flock used to be in heat when they came in to drink; and the males of the flock were in heat before the rods, - so the flocks brought forth ring-straked, speckled, and spotted. read more.
The rams also, did Jacob separate, and then set the faces of the flocks towards the ring-straked and all the dark-coloured, among the flocks of Laban, - and he put his own droves by themselves, and put them not with the flocks of Laban. So it came to pass whensoever the stronger of the flocks were in heat, that Jacob set the rods before the eyes of the flocks in the channels, - that the females might be in heat among the rods; but, when the flocks were late in bearing, he did not set them, - and so the late-born were Laban's, out the strong ones Jacob's. Thus did the man break forth, exceedingly, - thus came he to have flocks in abundance, and maid-servants, and men-servants and camels and asses.

Then heard he the words of the sons of Laban, saying, Jacob hath taken away all that belonged to our father; Yea out of what belonged to our father, hath he made all this wealth. And Jacob looked upon the face of Laban, - and lo! it was not with him as afore-time. Then said Yahweh unto Jacob, Return unto the land of thy fathers and to thy kindred, - that I may be with thee. read more.
So Jacob sent, and called for Rachel and for Leah, to the field unto his flock; and said to them, Beholding, am I the face of your father, that it is not towards me as aforetime, - nevertheless, the God of my father, hath been with me; and, ye, know that with all my vigour, have I served your father. But, your father, hath deceived me, and hath changed my wages ton times, - yet God hath not suffered him to deal harmfully with me. If thus he saith, The speckled, shall be thy wages, then do all the flock bring forth speckled, - But if thus he saith, The ring-straked, shall be thy wages, then do all the flock bring forth ring-straked. So hath God stripped away the herds of your father, and given them to me. And it came to pass in the season when the flock were in heat, then lifted I mine eyes and beheld in a dream, - and lo! the he-goats that were leaping upon the flock, were ring-straked speckled and dappled. And the messenger of God said unto me in a dream, Jacob! and I said, Behold me! Then he said Lift, I pray thee, thine eyes and behold All, the he-goats that are leaping upon the flock are ring-straked, speckled, and dappled, - for I have seen all that Laban, has been doing to thee. I, am the GOD of Beth-el, where thou didst anoint a pillar, where thou didst vow to me a vow, - Now, rise, go forth out of this land, and return unto the land of thy kindred. Then responded Rachel and Leah, and said to him, - Have we any longer a portion or an inheritance in the house of our father? Are we not accounted, aliens, to him seeing that having sold us, he hath then gone on devouring, our silver? Surely all the riches which God hath stripped off from our father, unto us, it belongeth, and unto our sons, - Now, therefore, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do. So Jacob arose, - and mounted his sons and his wives on the camels; and drave away all his herds and all his goods which he had gathered, the gains he had gained, which he had gathered in Padan-aram; that he might go in unto Isaac his father unto the land of Canaan. Now, Laban, had gone, to shear his sheep, - so Rachel stole the household gods that belonged to her father, Thus Jacob stole away unawares to Laban, the Syrian, - in that he had not told him that he was about to flee. So he fled, the - and all that he had, and he arose, and passed over the River, - and set his face towards the mountain of Gilead.
