Genesi 31:6 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 31:6

And ye know, that with all my power I have served your
father.
] With all faithfulness and uprightness; with all diligence and industry; with all wisdom and prudence; with all my might and main, contriving the best methods, and sparing no pains by day or night to take care of his flocks, and increase his substance: of this his wives had been witnesses for twenty years past, and to them he appeals for the truth of it; so that there was no just reason for their father's behaviour towards him.

Genesi 31:6 In-Context

4 E Giacobbe mandò a chiamar Rachele e Lea, a’ campi, presso della sua greggia.
5 E disse loro: Io veggo che la faccia di vostro padre non è inverso me qual soleva esser per addietro; e pur l’Iddio di mio padre è stato meco.
6 E voi sapete che ho servito a vostro padre di tutto il mio potere.
7 Ma egli mi ha ingannato, e m’ha cambiato il mio salario dieci volte; ma Iddio non gli ha permesso di farmi alcun danno.
8 Se egli diceva così: Le macchiate saranno il tuo salario, tutta la greggia figliava parti macchiati; e se diceva così: Le vergate saranno il tuo salario, tutta la greggia figliava parti vergati.
