Genesis 31:1-8

1 And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, "Jacob hath taken away all that was our father's; and from that which was our father's hath he gotten all this glory."
2 And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban, and behold, it was not toward him as before.
3 And the LORD said unto Jacob, "Return unto the land of thy fathers and to thy kindred, and I will be with thee."
4 And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock,
5 and said unto them, "I see your father's countenance, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father hath been with me.
6 And ye know that with all my power I have served your father.
7 And your father hath deceived me, and changed my wages ten times, but God did not suffer him to hurt me.
8 If he said thus: `The speckled shall be thy wages,' then all the animals bore speckled; and if he said thus: `The ringstreaked shall be thy hire,' then all the animals bore ringstreaked.
